For Matt, the origin of his social isolation came in high school, when he received the message both at home and at school that he wasn’t good enough. As a result, Matt still lives at home, does not have many friends, and continues to isolate. As a structural therapist, you might be interested more in:
  1. How long Matt has been continuing this behavior
  2. How Matt can find a way out on his own
  3. What seems to be maintaining the problem
  4. Where Matt turns for help
Explanation
Answer - C - Something is keeping Matt from realizing that he is, in fact, good enough. Finding a way out and figuring out where he can turn for help is important, but on the other hand, he may be less inclined to do that if he feels comfortable in the current situation and it would force him to change position or status in the family system.
