Admit that it is difficult for everyone to agree on everything; then ask whether the group can try to decide how to agree on the issue.

Explanation

Choice A reason: Excluding members escalates conflict, not resolves it. Collaboration works better, per nursing standards. This errors in approach. It’s universally distinct, divisive.

Choice B reason: Authoritarian suspension ignores teen input, hindering resolution. Group decision fits, per nursing. This misaligns with conflict management. It’s universally distinct.

Choice C reason: Delaying discussion avoids resolution; active engagement is better. This errors per nursing conflict skills. It’s universally distinct, postpones effective solution.

Choice D reason: Acknowledging difficulty and fostering group agreement resolves conflict effectively. This aligns with nursing standards. It’s universally applied, distinctly collaborative.
