Discussion
Urge teen girls to own their feelings by acknowledging their feelings to others when they set boundaries. She can do this by using 'I' statements. For instance, "I feel frustrated when I'm consistently interrupted." Teens should also indicate how they will respond to future boundary violations, such as, "If I am interrupted again, I will no longer participate in the conversation." Warn that they must follow through on stated repercussions, because if a teen girl continues a discussion despite ongoing interruptions after she has set the boundary, this will send a message that these limits are not to be taken seriously. In turn, others will continue to cross her lines and she may feel insignificant.
The passage best supports the statement that:
Answer: C
Correct answer: Teaching Girls how to set boundaries for themselves.
The whole passage is instruction: use ‘I’ statements, state the consequence of a future violation, and follow through, because limits not enforced are not taken seriously. That is a method for setting boundaries, addressed to teenage girls. The option about boundaries varying by person and context is a true general remark the passage never makes, and the other two shift to the wider position of women.
