review the definitions for altruism and paternalism.
real, lasting help can only occur with paternalism. people need to be told how things should be done; they do not need to be included in the solution because their actions have created the problem.
○ true
○ false

Explanation:

Altruism involves selfless concern for others' well - being, and effective, lasting help often requires including those receiving help in the solution (empowerment, collaboration). Paternalism is acting like a parent, making decisions for others without their full involvement. The statement's claim that only paternalism can give real, lasting help and that people shouldn't be included in solutions is incorrect, as inclusive approaches (not just paternalistic ones) can lead to sustainable help.

Answer:

False
