Question

read the claim and the supporting evidence. claim: parents should not give their young children access to televisions, tablets, or similar devices. evidence: the american academy of pediatrics recommends that children under the age of two have no screen time. why does the evidence support the claim? choose the analysis that better explains the connection. older children should similarly have little to no screen time. the american academy of pediatrics is a trusted source for recommendations about raising healthy children.

Explanation:

To determine why the evidence supports the claim, we analyze the options:

• The first option ("Older children...") introduces a new assertion about older children, which isn't directly related to the evidence about children under two.
• The second option explains that the American Academy of Pediatrics is a trusted source for child - rearing recommendations. Since the evidence is a recommendation from this trusted source regarding young children (under two) having no screen time, this supports the broader claim that parents should not give young children access to such devices, as the source is credible.

Answer:

The American Academy of Pediatrics is a trusted source for recommendations about raising healthy children.
