The Planned Parenthood representative suggested that all sexually active
teenagers be protected from STDs as thoroughly as possible and also encouraged
all parents who have post-pubescent children to talk to their children about birth
control.

(A) be protected from STDs as thoroughly as possible and also encouraged all
parents who have post-pubescent children
(B) should be protected from STDs as thoroughly as possible and also encourages
all parents that have post-pubescent children
(C) are protected from STDs as thoroughly as possible and also encourages
those parents who are having post-pubescent children
(D) be protected from STDs as thoroughly as possible and also encouraged parents
with post-pubescent children
(E) should be protected from STDs as thoroughly as possible and also has encouraged
all those parents with a post-pubescent child

Confused between A and D .Can anyone help?

Hello!

The main difference between answers A & D are these two phrases:

A: all parents who have post-pubescent children
D: parents with post-pubescent children

While there isn't anything technically wrong with either option, option A is the stronger answer. It uses parallel language to the earlier half of the sentence, which is easier to read and more impactful. Since the sentence refers to "all sexually active teenagers," it is best to parallel that later when you say "all parents." If you want ALL teenagers to be informed, it only makes sense that ALL parents participate!

I hope that helps!
