Answer:

failing to provide security for the colonies

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though in the Declaration of Independence, the thirteen colonies accused the British government on many occasions of trying to dissolve the representative houses or made representatives relinquish their representation in the legislature.

Among the available options, the complaint about the British government that was included in the Declaration of Independence is "failing to provide security for the colonies."

This evident in the Declaration of Independence where it was written that (referring to the King of Great Britain) "He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us."
