Answer:

A. The passage does not have a strong claim and does not contain any sound reasoning.

Step-by-step explanation:

A claim may be explained as an individual's notion or view of an event or how something should be. A claim is said to be strong if it is backed up by logical evidences and sound reasoning ; with accompanying sound reasoning, a person may be said to have made a strong claim which wi then be worthy of considering the statements or views in such claim. From the passage above, we could say some statements were made about the establish ment and duration mother, father and writer worked but no Strong claim nor sound reasoning were made regarding these statements as there were no statements to backup the assertion.
