What should the counselor do if the parents refuse to sign the case plan?

Ask if they want a new counselor
Write a plan they will sign
Proceed without a plan for a while
Submit the plan to the court without their signature and document their refusal to sign

The correct answer is: Submit the plan to the court without their signature and document their refusal to sign

If the parents refuse to sign the case plan, the counselor should not ask for a new counselor (A) or proceed without a plan (C) as these options could further strain the relationship between the counselor and the parents. Writing a plan they will sign (B) is not a viable option as the case plan is meant to benefit the child and comply with court orders, not cater to the wants of the parents. Therefore, submitting the plan to the court without their signature and documenting their refusal to sign (D) is the best course of action to ensure the progress of the case and the child's well-being.
