A man, who looked about 45 years old, gave a cashier at a grocery store the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) vouchers for some of the food he had just selected. Which conclusion can be drawn from this scenario?

he has a child that is less than 5 years old

Explanation:

The WIC program was first set up by the US federal government in 1975 and is carried by the US department of Agriculture. There are four basic requirements that applicants for WIC must pass before obtaining any aid:

Categorical : only pregnant women and up to 6 weeks after giving birth, infants and children up to 5 years old. Residential : must live in the state at which they apply. Income : every state sets an income threshold level for WIC applicants Nutrition Risk: a health professional must determine that the applicant is under nutritional risk and therefore, needs assistance by the WIC program.

In the US the average age for a first time father is 31 years old, so a man that appears to be 45 can easily be the father of a small child. The average age of a grandfather is 52. Biologically you can be a grandfather at 45, and even younger, but it is not normal, nor recommendable.

He has a teenage daughter that was pregnant or with a little child.

Explanation:

The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) vouchers are vouchers provided by the federal government to states to ensure that low income pregnant teenager or women, infants and children have access to supplemental food, healthcare, etc. This is in a bid to ensure that every pregnant woman, their children or infants are well taken care of and have access to better health system among other things.

These vouchers cater for over millions of people through their over 40,000 merchants all over the world.

Cheers.
