What is not a characteristic of acceptance?

Allowing oneself to be controlled by others
Letting go of stress and anxiety
Recognizing one's limited control
Not passing judgment on circumstances

The correct answer is: Allowing oneself to be controlled by others

Acceptance is the ability to recognize and acknowledge circumstances as they are, without trying to change them. Option A is incorrect because it describes the opposite of acceptance, which is allowing oneself to be controlled by others. Options B, C, and D all describe characteristics of acceptance, such as releasing negative emotions, recognizing limited control, and being non-judgmental.
