Two-year-old Thao came into day care with red marks on his back. When asked about this, his mother explained they were from a practice called �coining� or rubbing a heated coin on the skin to improve health. Given the mother's explanation of this practice from her culture, would this be acceptable to the staff at the day care?

a. No, in the United States this would be considered child abuse
b. No, but since it is a custom in their culture it would be respected as such
c. Yes, the mother's explanation would be sufficient enough that the staff would not see it as child abuse
d. Yes, the day care has a multicultural approach and encourages native customs
