    Solutions
    The context makes it clear that the passage is talking about the responsibilities in the childhood, which generally quite less in quantity; thus 'many' and 'more' are automatically out of context. 'Little' is used for uncountable nouns and 'few' is used for plural countable nouns. As the context is about 'responsibilities', which is plural, so 'few' is the most suitable response.

    'Disturbed' is not a valid response in the context of the statement.
