Read the passage about social relationships.
The attachment that a child has with its parent or guardian is a central predictor for
mental health and well-being, as well as relationship satisfaction, during adulthood.
While families, parents, and caregivers are central to our well-being, during
adolescence, friends and peers become more significant as young people become
more independent and start to build their own social networks. As a result, toxic
relationships and negative experiences, such as bullying or social isolation, can be
more relevant and have a serious impact on young people's mental health. Schools and
the teacher-student relationship, and positive support from organizations such as youth
clubs, can act as a buffer and help protect young people during this difficult time.
According to this passage, which relationship has the greatest influence on a child's
mental health?
peer
friend
parent
sibling - ANSWER c
