Question

the reasoning below is...
claim
instead of limiting the use of electronic devices, parents should encourage their children to spend more time online.
evidence
quote: “hours spent on computers and smartphones mean fewer opportunities to get up to no good” (the economist)
reasoning
children who spend more time online develop greater digital literacy and can navigate the internet more safely.
strong reasoning: connects the evidence to the claim
weak reasoning: doesnt connect the evidence to the claim

Explanation:

The claim is encouraging more online time instead of limiting devices. The evidence states online time reduces "getting up to no good," while the reasoning focuses on digital literacy and safe internet navigation. There is no link between the evidence (less mischief) and the reasoning (digital literacy/safety), so the reasoning fails to connect evidence to the claim.

Answer:

Weak Reasoning: Doesn't Connect the Evidence to the Claim
