Question based on the following passage:
Bring nurture into it
All children need boundaries, and some of these students either won’t have had those or will have had a lot of inappropriate, overly severe boundaries. But while consistent, firm boundaries can help a child to feel safe, it’s important to remember that nurture also plays a part.
By nurture I mean the consistent care that we would expect a parent to give a child. If any of your students end up being among the tiny minority of children who are actually taken into care (approximately half a percent) it seems reasonable to assume that they will not have received the consistent, nurturing parenting that enables physical, mental and emotional wellbeing (it’s also worth noting that the rate of is 46.4% as compared to 8.5% in nondisadvantaged children and young people).
Some children may need therapeutic intervention but all children, especially those who are vulnerable, would benefit from schools that promote emotional well-being. As teachers, we shouldn’t underestimate the power of smiles, kind words, acceptance following behavioural incidents and appropriate physical proximity.

What attitudes should teachers take when dealing with vulnerable children?
- They shouldn’t smile because the student loses respect and it can cause behavioral incidents.
- They should impose limits on students with undesirable behavior because students had no limits imposed by parents.
- They should smile more, say kind words and understand student behavioral incidents.
- They shouldn’t show affection to some children because they already have physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.
- They should pay more attention to children who miss their parents.

Comentário do professor
A alternativa C indica que os professores devem sorrir mais, dizer palavras gentis e compreender os incidentes comportamentais dos alunos. Essas atitudes representam a dimensão de nurture mencionada no texto: cuidados consistentes que promovem o bem‑estar emocional.
O texto cita explicitamente que sorrisos, palavras gentis, a aceitação após incidentes comportamentais e a proximidade física apropriada são poderosos para crianças vulneráveis. Isso ajuda a reduzir ansiedade, restaurar confiança e criar segurança afetiva.
Na prática, essas ações, associadas a limites consistentes, favorecem a construção de vínculo e permitem intervenções educativas ou terapêuticas mais efetivas para crianças em situação de vulnerabilidade.
