Who took credit for helping Bruno with his injury?

• A. Father
• B. His mother
• C. Grandmother
• D. Pavel

Answer: (B)

This item focuses on who claims responsibility for caregiving and what that reveals about characters' priorities. Although Pavel actually helps Bruno by cleaning and tending to his wound, Bruno’s mother is the one who takes credit for the care. This shows her desire to present herself as a loving, capable parent and to control how the family’s actions are described, especially in front of others. It highlights how adults may prioritize appearances and the child’s sense of safety over the exact sequence of events. The other figures aren’t the ones who claim the credit in that moment, even though Pavel is the one who did the real work.
