Answer:

A. The "I" statement is non-confrontational

Step-by-step explanation:

The "I" statement is indicates that you take responsability for what you feel and say which is a compassionate way to communicate. On the other hand, the "you" statement indicates that the other person is responsible for something and the person can feel like it's been accused and that he/she has made something wrong. According to this, the answer is that the "I" statement is non-confrontational.

What is the difference between an "I" statement and a "You" statement? A. The "I" statement is non-confrontational. When you are speaking to someone else and you start with I, it is non-confrontational because you are talking about yourself. If you start a sentence with "you" sometimes the other person may take offense to that and think you are wanting to start an argument.
