Michael has a two-year-old son named Nicholas. Currently, Nicholas is going through a developmental phase where he loves to throw food. Every time he sits in the highchair, he throws the food that Michael gives him on the floor (much to the delight of the family dog). Michael is working with Nicholas to eliminate this behavior using a system of positive discipline. What function of family is Michael providing during these lessons?
a. Affection
b. Protection
c. Socialization
d. Reproduction
