Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Option C reflects best practice - parents should trust the teacher's professional judgment and engage in constructive dialogue about concerns. This models respectful communication and problem-solving. Options A, B, and D represent escalation without communication - complaining (A), requesting transfer (B), or removing the child (D) bypass understanding the teacher's educational rationale. Democratic seating arrangements often have pedagogical value.
