Question

which situation requires immediate assistance from a trusted adult?
○ maria is not speaking to molly because molly kissed marias boyfriend.
○ cho has threatened to beat up pat if he does not share his homework.
○ anders is jealous because eliot made the baseball team and he did not.
○ jill and elise are arguing because they are presidents of opposing political clubs.

Explanation:

We analyze each option:

• Maria and Molly's issue is a personal/relationship conflict, not an immediate threat.
• Cho threatening to beat up Pat is a physical threat, which is a serious safety concern requiring immediate adult help.
• Anders' jealousy is an emotional reaction, not an urgent threat.
• Jill and Elise's argument is a political - club - related disagreement, not an immediate danger.

Answer:

B. Cho has threatened to beat up Pat if he does not share his homework.
