ANS: B
Infants of mothers with depression are more likely to have delays in psychosocial and cognitive development and may be fussier than infants whose mothers are not depressed. Giving the woman factual information about a consequence of untreated depression may help her make a decision about treatment. The other statements are emotionally manipulative and are likely to induce guilt.
