Briefly discuss the effects of a Level 0 response on a client.

Answers may vary. A Level 0 response may provoke client anger but pose few consequences for a social worker unless there are norms that clients must be treated respectfully in all circumstances. A Level 0 response does not convey empathy, make the circumstances worse, and make it unlikely that the client will consider the social worker's opinion. It greatly hinders further efforts to work with the client in a collaborative fashion.
