In a speech delivered to parents on the launch anniversary of the Let's Move program, Michelle Obama made this claim:

"The truth is that today, we have more choices than ever about how we live and eat, but so many of those choices simply aren't good for our kids. And little by little sometimes without us even noticing those choices have started to add up."

Which of these statements shows an acknowledgement of a counterclaim to her position?

 "Just think about it for a minute. Think back to when we were growing up. Back then, our TVs had only a few channels and when those Saturday morning cartoons were finished, you were done with TV for the day. Once American Bandstand and Soul Train were over, you headed outside to play and you didn't come home until dinner. "  "We know that kids are like little sponges they soak up everything they see and hear, regardless of where it comes from. They want the gadget they saw at a friend's house, the sugary snacks they saw on TV. So we know that if we truly want to solve the issue of childhood obesity, parents can't shoulder this burden alone, and we shouldn't have to." "My brother and I got pizza a few times a year-as a reward for good grades when report cards came out. No one in my family believed in eating out especially not my grandmother. I will never forget the time when my brother and I begged her to get us takeout burgers and fries for lunch." "The American Academy of Pediatrics is now urging doctors to not just screen kids for obesity, but to actually write out prescriptions for exercise and healthy eating. And under the Affordable Care Act-the health care law that Congress passed last year-these screenings will be fully covered by insurance so you won't have to pay a penny out of pocket."
