Another resident says her "children are in high school now" and so they "don't listen to me anyway."Which revision criterion could be used to improve this excerpt? A.Use of support B.Coherence C.Grammar D.Word Choice

The correct answer should definitely be B. Coherence

The paragraph is incoherent which means that the points are not logically connected. At one point in the beginning we have curfews and their enactment in homes, and then suddenly we jump to kids being in high-school who don't listen to their parents. It can maybe be understood what the writer wanted to say, but it should've been connected in a different way to make it more coherent.
