short
This is not a credible source because only eating once a day is not a recommended or healthy way to maintain a balanced and nourishing diet. It goes against common nutritional guidelines and can have serious negative consequences on one's health.

This is a good response, but can be simplified for a third-grade level:
This is not a good source because only eating once a day is not healthy. It can make you sick and is not good for your body.

Use the essay to answer the question.
"If you are never given a bike, then how can you learn to ride one? The same goes for money. If children are never given money of their own, then how will they learn to manage it? Children should be paid for their chores because they will learn valuable lessons about earning and saving money.
Children who are paid for doing their chores or given an allowance will learn important lessons about money. Young children can learn how to count money; and, as they get older, they can learn how to save for a toy or even create a monthly budget. Some parents even ask their children to donate a portion of their allowance to a favorite charity. Once children have money of their own, they can learn to make their own financial choices.
Paying children for chores also teaches them the connection between hard work and earning money. When children grow up, they will have to work to make money to live. It is important to tie work and money together in a meaningful way, so children can be prepared for the real world."
In three to five sentences, create a concluding paragraph for the essay.
