Oh, my! What do you mean by "in earnest?"
My year-old great grandson has been around his relatives and family friends since he was born. He has so many of them that he's never had a baby sitter who was not known to him.
On the other hand, many parents have to put their baby into day care when they are only a few weeks old.
He'll probably go to preschool when he's about 3 or 4.
At what age do parents start to socialize their children in earnest?

I have no idea. What does your book say?
I would say option A as babies begin to listen and connect to their parents at a very young age; children begin to listen and respond as to show gestures during their first year of development.
