    Giving up power in environments where young people can make rational decisions.

    Explanation:

    Caitlin is quite matured and taking some responsibility, her parents allowed her to get a part-time job and have a car, but they frown at the idea of caitlin moving into a new house with her friend Liza. Her parents strongly stood firm in their decision.

    This illustrates relinquishing control in areas where the adolescent can make mature decisions. Liza is old enough to make some decisions, but her parents restrains her from making some more serious matured decisions like moving out from the house.
