Either A or B;

A: Is correct, when using "I" the language shows more responsibility on the protagonist, yourself, or an author.

B: This one bugs me a little, Where as "You" can be objective, in this line of reasoning, so can "I" because it's being used the same way... but in different points of view.

I would say the most effective answer is A.

Answer:

D is the correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

It all depends on the situation. If someone is using "You" language to put blame on others, it may sound threatening and also as casting blame on others. But its usage can also be polite and less threatening. According to communication experts, it can be the key to a successful conversation, using "you" can make people feel more involved in the conversation. According to them, "You" language is more accurate and less threatening.
