Wright's mother is using humor to help her son feel better

The correct answer is option C: "using humor to help her son feel better", since it clearly states so in the excerpt ("Trying to make me laugh and forget"), and due to the fact that "kungry" is not a real word, therefore, his mother cannot "teach him a lesson" or present a solution to the problem, and since she clearly addresses the fact that he is hungry, she is not misunderstanding his feelings. That is why answers A, B or D are incorrect.
