Neil brags about his five-year-old son's recent achievement in fine motor skills. Neil's son has most likely begun to do which of the following?

A. When asked if shoes are clothing, a child replies "no.":This shows a categorical/conceptual error about what counts as a category member, not using a label too broadly, so it’s notoverextension.
B. When asked which of two bowls has fewer apples, a child points to the one with the greater amount: This is a conservation/number concept error (confusing more/less), not a lexical overextension.
C. A child refers to cats, hamsters, and dogs as "doggies.":overextension occurs when a child applies a word too broadly (calling many different animals “doggie”).
D. A child says "take me some water" instead of "bring me some water.":This is a syntactic/semantic choice or language transfer error, not overextension of meaning.
E. A child says "me want more" instead of "I want more.":This is a grammatical/production error (telegraphic or ungrammatical speech), not overextension.

A. Authoritarian: Authoritarian parenting is high control/low warmth; children often are obedient or may become rebellious but not typically described as simply immature and lacking self-control due to permissiveness.
B. Authoritative: Authoritative parents combine warmth and consistent limits; their children usually show good self-control and social competence.
C. Permissive: permissive (indulgent) parenting is low in firm limits and discipline, often producing children who are impulsive, immature, and have poor self-control.
D. Neglectful: Neglectful (uninvolved) parenting leads to many problems (attachment, academic), but the vignette emphasizes immaturity and refusal to listen-classic for permissive.
E. Rejecting: “Rejecting” is similar to neglectful/uninvolved; it implies emotional rejection rather than the indulgent permissiveness described.
