Answer:
Hasty generalization
Explanation:
This describes the fallacy of hasty generalization. This fallacy occurs when a conclusion is reached, despite the fact that the information is insufficient or biased. Therefore, the conclusion is not logically justified. This fallacy proceeds from the particular to the general, as it bases its conclusions on a small sample, and tries to extrapolate this information to the population at large.
Even though the journey to the U.S. is gravely dangerous, these children are refugees fleeing the disastrous living situation, with extreme poverty, and the violence from the gangs.
In the United States, they can financially help their families, start a new life and escape from violence, death and powerlessness.
