Answer: B. Anne finds her mother difficult to get along with at times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anne and her mother have a very distant relationship in the story. Anne contradicts more with her mother than her father, and she describes her mother as being uncaring and too critical of her, while her father is kind and supportive of her. Anne feels that her mother is cold, critical, and uncaring, that they have very little in common, and that her mother does not know how to show love to her children. Like Margot, Mrs. Frank is mentioned almost exclusively in instances that she is the source of Anne's anger and frustration. Therefore, B is the correct answer choice.

I hope this helps!
