13. don and janice have a tense, hostile marriage. they're likely to deal with their children a. with general indifference, regardless of their children's behavior. b. by seeking outside assistance from a mental health agency. c. with criticism, anger, and punishment. d. by ignoring positive behaviors and blaming negative behaviors on the other parent.

The right answer is "D. by ignoring positive behaviors and blaming negative behaviors on the other parent."

This happens a lot between families where parents have a very bad relationship. They consistently neglect their children, do not congratulate them on their achievements or the positive points of their personality because they are focused on pointing out the faults of one another.  In addition, these parents often point out the negative points in their children. They use this as an excuse to blame the other parent, saying that he or she is the real reason for their children's bad behavior.

It is important to emphasize that an environment in which parents have a toxic relationship is very harmful to children, and can generate violent, stressed and incomprehensible adults with behaviors as destructive as their parents.

serve the people! ,” smoothly translated by julia lovell, offers an initial sample of yan lianke’s writing to an english-speaking audience. a bluntly drawn, mildly erotic fable, it teases mao zedong by poking fun at a true believer who obeys the chairman’s precepts too literally. to a western sensibility, the broad strokes of yan lianke’s humor would seem to pose little risk of inciting rebellion, whether of the flesh or of the body politic. but then, part of the book’s attraction is that it doesn’t have a western sensibility. it lets the reader see — or rather, intuit — what jokes chinese officials don’t consider funny, and how very little it takes for a writer to be branded an incendiary in 21st-century china, more than three decades after the death of mao, a decade after the death of deng xiaoping and seven years since china entered the world trade organization, a move that would seem to signal a willingness (however wary) to mingle with the rest of the world.
