Answer:

a humanistic psychotherapist would say that Ronald's parents are placing conditions of worth on their son.

Step-by-step explanation:

the conditions of worth are expectations and criterias our parents establish that define our worth or competence.

in this scenario, ronald's parents are conditiong ronald's worth with his professional ambitions. if he does not pick a major that they think is acceptable, they won't pay for tuition.
