Question

which statement describes an example of responsible parenting?
a parent hugs his child before bedtime.
a parent buys his child the latest video game.
a parent picks her child up late from school every day.
a parent is strict no matter what happens.

Explanation:

Responsible parenting involves nurturing, meeting emotional/physical needs, and being reliable. Hugging a child before bedtime shows affection and emotional support (a key part of responsible parenting). Buying the latest video game is indulgent, not necessarily responsible. Picking up late is irresponsible (neglects time - keeping). Being strict unconditionally lacks flexibility, not responsible.

Answer:

A. A parent hugs his child before bedtime.
