What statement by the nurse would best educate the father on how to use simple active listening skills?

The client with anxiety disorder lives at home with his father. His father tells the nurse that he has difficulty in communicating with his son because the father is afraid of upsetting his son. What statement by the nurse would best educate the father on how to use simple active listening skills?
1. The listening process is interactive. Try to clarify what your son is saying by asking questions but refrain from giving advice.
2. Try to not speak when your son is talking. Try to nod your head to say ” yes” and don’t be afraid of silence as it can help your son put his ideas to words.
3. You should analyze your son’s statements to give him a broader perspective of what he is feeling. Help your son to be more objective about his life.
4. Don’t make your son feel guilty about being stressed and anxious. Don’t tell him that he needs to be strong.
