Question

every child should own a pet. Pets help children learn many important lessons. Owning a pet helps children learn how to be responsible. They must feed and care for their pets every day. Children will find that pets do not always do what they tell them to. Teaching a cat a trick or showing a dog how to sit helps children learn how to be patient. Having a pet also shows children how to be kind to animals.
 How does the author support the argument? A) by explaining what pets teach children B) by showing which pets are best for children C) by showing how children and pets can have fun D) by explaining why children might enjoy having a pet
