B. regulate their own emotional responses to situations.

C. have lowered sympathetic reactivity to stress.

D. are poor at recognizing other people's emotions.

Answer 1

Right answer - D. are poor at recognizing other people's emotions.

Explanation - children who are growing in a harsh family environment are used to suppress their emotions from childhood. The strict rules and behaviors from their families are the reason why these children can't express their emotions spontaneously from the very beginning of childhood period and this affects their overall mind set. After growing up these children still face trouble while recognizing a person's emotion or the reason behind their emotional state.
