Answer:

The correct answer is option D. Allowing anger to control you can lead decisions you may regret.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is said that La Llorona is a woman who wanders the streets of Mexico City in search of her children, whom she herself murdered, maddened, during one night. They say it appears in places where a river once passed. It is also said that she is a very beautiful woman dressed in white. Others mention that you can only see her silhouette, that it floats. The only thing they agree on is that whenever it is seen, a long and terrifying cry is heard: "Oh, my children!"

Which leads us to the conclusion that in an act of anger and fury she murders her children, but she really regretted doing it and now she has to bear that guilt and crying over her children for all eternity.

That is why the correct answer is option D.
