I got this answer correct but I did not diagram. Not sure how to diagram this stimulus. Thanks!

    I didn't diagramm either but I think it would work as follows:

    Children under age of 6 --- MOST --> egocentric & Selfish

    Children understand that animals are independent creatures ---> Least age of 6 (b/c this is the earliest they even have a shot at understanding).


    Conclusion: children under 6 ---- MOST --> should not have pets

    We're clearly missing a connection between the premises and the normative statement that most children under 6 should not have pets.

    E builds that bridge for us.

    Children who should have pets -----> understand animals are independent ----> least age of 6

    contrapose: NOT at least 6 years old ---> don't understand animals ---> should not have pets
