Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: I can give you information about respite care if you are interested.

A: This choice does not offer any practical solution or support to address the son's sleep difficulties.
C: Suggesting a sleeping pill without proper assessment or consultation with a healthcare provider may not be safe or effective in this situation.
