Children are at risk for being victimized by family violence and for perpetrating it against others. Research and theory suggest that some forms of victimization increase the risk of:
A. juvenile criminal offending.
B. inappropriate choices.
C. smoking.
D. dating the wrong people.
I think it's B, but not sure.
You're probably right, since making inappropriate choices covers a lot of possibilities. But, recheck your text materials to make sure.
There should be a choice E -- All of the above! The correct answer is all of these. As Reed said, check your text to be sure.
To answer this question, we need to understand the connection between children being victimized by family violence and the potential effects it can have on their behavior.
Research and theory suggest that some forms of victimization can increase the risk of various negative outcomes. Let's analyze each option to determine the correct answer:
A. Juvenile criminal offending: It is possible that children who experience family violence may be more likely to engage in criminal behavior as they grow older. However, it is not specified in the question whether victimization directly leads to juvenile criminal offending.
B. Inappropriate choices: While children who have been victimized by family violence may struggle with decision-making due to the trauma they have experienced, the concept of "inappropriate choices" is quite broad and doesn't specifically relate to the potential consequences of victimization.
C. Smoking: There is no specific evidence to suggest a direct link between family violence victimization and smoking among children.
D. Dating the wrong people: Similar to inappropriate choices, the concept of "dating the wrong people" is subjective and not directly related to the potential consequences of family violence victimization.
Considering the explanations above, none of the options (A, B, C, D) appears to be a direct and specific consequence of family violence victimization. Therefore, none of them is a completely accurate answer to the question.
