Question

Read the student essay below and then answer the question that follows:

(1) I feel that I am too old for a babysitter and that my parents should allow me to stay home alone when
they go out in the evenings. (2) Parenting magazine reports that most 14-year-olds are allowed to stay
home for up to three hours by themselves without a babysitter. (3) Since I am a responsible 14-year-old,
and my parents go out frequently, allowing me to stay home will save them a lot of money in babysitter
fees.

Which part of an appeal to logic is being used in sentence (3)?
