Does the following client statement represent a "concrete client statement" or does it represent an "abstract/formal operational thought? " "i dropped my child off at school and said 'good-bye' in my native language as that is what we speak at home. a teacher came by and told my son that he had to stop using our language because he is now an american."

abstract /formal operational thought

Explanation:

Concrete client statement is one that is stated clearly with explained concerns or problems attached to what is being stated hence it is clear to understand what the concern is about.

Abstract operation thoughts is based on one's own point of view , they will state their thoughts based on how they see that situation without giving much explanation about their thoughts so usually they may leave the listener wondering what they meant with their statement .

The statement above the child is told not to speak their own langauge because now they are in America and this information is kind of vague and confusing for the child , it may sound like just because you are in America you are forbidden to speak your language whereas maybe the teacher is trying to say she needs to learn the American langauge so that the child may get along well in school and around school.
