ANSWER:
Okay, do you have your answer ready?
The correct answer: The boy’s mum is the woman sitting on the left-hand side of the picture.
There are a few clues that point you in that direction, such as the fact that their hair color matches, and the fact that the boy is facing her while playing with his toys, indicating that he feels comfortable with her and she isn’t a stranger.
Also, the woman is leaning forward in her chair toward the child, which reflects the natural desire for a mum to protect her child – while the other woman is relaxed in her chair.
Did you get it right? Congratulations in that case!
