You see a child crying alone in a park. What is the best action to take?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is "Ask the child what's wrong."
In any situation where a child is alone and distressed, the first and most practical step is to approach them and assess their situation.
By talking to the child, you'll quickly determine why they're crying—whether they've been separated from their parents, are injured, or something else. Only then will you be able to provide appropriate assistance (such as notifying park officials or seeking police assistance if necessary).
