Answer 2

Answer:

B. Appeal to emotions

Explanation:

The statement is an example of an appeal to emotions because the mother tries to convince Ginny of eating her dinner by evoking strong emotions of pity or sympathy for those children who don't have any food. Statements with this type of appeal tend to appeal to strong emotions, instead of appealing to logic or reason and presenting evidence that supports what we are saying.
