Regina Thomas is in the psychologist's office for a consultation with her 9-year-old daughter Keisha. During the session the mother and daughter argue and Mrs. Thomas resorts to foul language. What should the psychologist do?
A) Tell Mrs. Thomas that the use of curse words in her office is not permissible and, if it continues, will be grounds for termination of therapy.
B) End the session early and tell Mrs. Thomas, "We'll talk again next week after you have had a chance to cool off."
C) Pull Mrs. Thomas aside and tell her that she needs to refrain from cursing because, besides being inappropriate in the office, it is setting a poor example for her daughter.
D) Continue the session, allowing Mrs. Thomas the opportunity to vent as long as Keisha doesn't seem bothered by it and it doesn't get out of hand.
