The father of a 4-year-old confides in the school nurse that he is concerned about his child not telling the truth. The father states, "I found a broken tool in my garage and when I asked my son about it, he said that his friend Andrew broke it, but we don't know anyone named Andrew." The best response by the nurse would be
a) "Your son may have a friend named Andrew, but it could be an imaginary friend."
b) "You should watch this type of behavior closely since most children this age tell the truth."
c) "You need to show your child the broken tool since at this age they must see something in order to understand."
d) "You should punish your son because no child should be telling lies at this age."
Answer: "Your son may have a friend named Andrew, but it could be an imaginary friend."
