Talon Orozco · Answer 2

D. I feel hurt when you ignore me at meetings; it makes me think that you don't value my opinion.

Explanation:

An I statement is used to properly and effectively communicate our problems and feelinfs to those around us, an I statement should have 4 steps, the first one is communicating what are you felling:

I feel angry.

The second step is telling the reason:

Because you pay more attention to my brother.

The third step is telling when:

When you take him to his soccer games.

And then explaining what you need:

What I need is that you alos take me to my dance classes.

So the I statement explains why something is bothering you, when it bothers and how the person could change that, the option that most resembles an I statement would be D.
