Read this excerpt of a speech that Hoda is writing about the topic of voting age.
I think all children should be able to vote at age 13. I’d like to be able to vote in the next presidential election. _____ In cultures of the past, people were considered adults at age 13, and today’s children are even smarter than children of the past.
Which rebuttal best addresses the counterclaim that "children at age 13 should not vote” and belongs in the blank space in Hoda’s speech?
Children should have a say in who serves in our government, and people who disagree do not respect children.
There are some children who love politics and should get to vote!
Adults can vote but a large percentage of them do not use this privilege that they have.
If all the children in the world were able to vote, I think we’d have a much better world.
