The correct answer to the question: When ideally should parents first communicate their expectations?, is, D: Before the behavior starts, or the child is in the situation.

Explanation:

One of the most important points in communication between parents and children is that information be clear from the getgo. As such, for example, if the parents are taking a child to a dinner, and they expect him/her to behave correctly, they need to express this to the child, and explain why it is important that he/she does as the parents expect. This will make the child understand what needs to be done and, in general, will behave accordingly as he knows what is expected of him. If the communication comes during the time of behavior, the child will not understand why he is doing wrong, because he did not know previously. If it is done after, it will be more of a corrective measure, than a prevention one, and if expectations are never informed, but are expected to be apparent, then the behavior will happen, as the child is not clear beforehand on what is wrong, or right. This is why the best answer is D.
