I don't think you have to offer any options as to what will happen. Prepare them and if they have hope deep in their hearts and minds, I don't think you have to renforce (lead them on) or squash it (destroy them) either. You can listen if and when they speak of it (they may not) and just acknowledge that that's what they'd like. When you put them and their best interest first (which I know you will) you help them be the incredible people they are now and will be in the future.
