Answer:limited choices

Explanation:When children are offered limited choices they will respond better than when they are being demanded to choose one thing.

The limited choice works even better when the parent says to the child "you decide".

Giving the child these limited choices make it easier for you to know that they will pick the right choice but at the same you still making sure that the choice is theirs.
