  1. Example Of Argumentative Essay On Bulldogs Many people say, "They are so ugly, they are cute."There are also many people who think they are bad dogs to have. Some reasons people don't like them is because, they have breathing problems, they cost two thousands dollars, and they are dangerous. Consider, for a moment you are outside with your bulldog, and it has a heat stroke. You and your family would be tore apart because your dog just died. In Scope Magazine page twenty it states, "A face so flat that it has difficulty breathing." That is just one of the many problems bulldogs have. Well, your pet just died, so you are sad, but know you are also out of two thousand dollars. The average bulldog cost any where from one thousand to two thousand dollars. That is way too much to pay for ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  2. Argumentative Essay On Social Media Addiction Social Media has become a plague in our world today, it's like a disease that is spread around very quickly, and super–fast. For example, some old family members of mine, who I would have never expected to use social media are now using it, and they have become very good at using it, their black belts of social media if you will. They heard young people talking about it, so it made them wonder "if teenagers are excited about this whole new trend might as well give it a shot, and see how well we do with it ourselves." But what they don't know is that social media is good for us for some good reason like keeping up with far relatives, keeping up with the news, and what's going around the world but once you start using it for other non–good...show more content... Facebook jealousy is bad, for that it causes so many problems and arguments with your partner which in term can lead us to even consider cheating. Cheating is another negative implication from using too much Facebook. By using Facebook in a unhealthy matter it increases the chance of someone cheating, it definitely increases the odds of a couple to cheat on each other, because Facebook has a private message feature allowing anybody to send a message where just the two people are the only ones that can read and see the messages. To some extent if the person doesn't want their partner to find out they're cheating, they will even create a fake profile to reach out to the person. A great example of this is one of my uncles actually cheated on his girlfriend using the same tactic I talked about. He used the private message feature which allowed him to keep his affair a secret from his girlfriend. While his girlfriend thought he was at work, he was actually cheating on another girl. Low–self–esteem is another negative implication, that can happen to us for using Facebook for such a long time! By using Facebook too much our self–esteem will drop, because we'll always be thinking about what other's think about our profile, posts, updates, and also being concerned about having the perfect life, and getting likes. There are so many great examples of this, but one that always comes to mind is the tv–show Catfish. Mostly all of the time the person ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  3. Argumentative Essay On Poverty Thousands of individuals are living in poverty. Why is it that this worldwide dilemma is still rising in rapid numbers till this day? Is it because of a lack of authoritative power, or a lack of one's self control to do good? Despite the unknown cause, it has managed to drastically affect the lives of many. Poverty is like a curse, one that is wrongfully placed, difficult to get out of, and resistant to many forms of help. The pinpoint cause of poverty is challenging to find. People who live well off and are above the poverty line may be quick to assume that laziness, addiction, and the typical stereotypes are the causes of poverty. Barbara Ehrenreich, a well known writer on social issues, brings attention to the stereotypical ideology at her time, that "poverty was caused, not by low wages or a lack of jobs, but by bad attitudes and faulty lifestyles" (17). Ehrenreich is emphasizing the fact that statements like the one listed, often influence readers to paint inaccurate mental pictures of poverty that continue to shine light on the ideology of stereotypes being the pinpoint cause to poverty. However, there are many other causes that are often overshadowed, leaving some individuals to believe that poverty was wrongfully placed upon them. Examples would include: high rates of unemployment, low paying jobs, race, and health complications. Which are all out of one's ability to control. There is no control over a lack of jobs and high rates of unemployment, nor the amount of inadequate wages the working poor receive. Greg Kaufmann, an advisor for the Economic Hardship Reporting Project and The Half in Ten campaign, complicates matters further when he writes, "Jobs in the U.S. [were] paying less than $34,000 a year: 50 percent. Jobs in the U.S. [were] paying below the poverty line for a family of four, less than $23,000 annually: 25 percent" (33). Acknowledging Kaufmann's fact, the amount received for a family of four is fairly close to the yearly salary of a high school graduate, which means, receiving that kind of pay for one man may seem challenging, now imagine caring for the needs of four individuals. To make matters worse, certain families receive that amount of money and carry the burden of paying for ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  4. Argumentative Writing Rough Draft Outline, planning, revising, rough and final draft, grading. This is the typical process for writing an essay, I however as a young high school student never followed this. I started with an idea in my head and go on from there. I never considered a need to plan and prepare an outline, just to write a rough draft that I would have to revise, draft, and draft again. It would just be easier to start writing the final draft first right? No. This class has taught me many strategies on how to accustom my writing to a college level. Over the semester in this class I have grown, learned how to effectively draft, and experienced argumentative writing first hand. I, over the semester, have grown in both literacy and critical thinking. A direct comment from Mr. Gish on the first essay I wrote for the class was "Nice reading!" to this sentence in the essay "This continues to show that people in poverty aren't charity cases, but rather they are human beings.". This comment, along with others, shows me that I am capable to effectively write in one of the worst essays that I have written. The reason for this growth was the support of both my friends and family. My father would help me with grammatical errors and final revision decisions in some essays. This growth happened slowly with a lot of effort put towards it. An example from my first essay is "First and foremost, Gordon Park's imagery throughout his composition." this is the topic sentence to a short paragraph in the beginning of ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  5. Argumentative Essay On Creativity The Creativity Epidemic Most would agree that the technological advances today have caused this generation to become crippled in their creativity. The lack of face–to–face communication has severely damaged this generations ability to separate text–speech from formal speeches. Being born in a generation were technology is only at it's peak, it's hard to separate yourself from the tech– savvy world. As stated in the article The Creativity Crisis by Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman the accepted definition of creativity is production of something original and useful, and that's what's reflected in the tests. There is never one right answer. To be creative requires divergent thinking (generating many unique ideas) and then convergent thinking (combining those ideas into the best result). When most think of technology you only see the advances made, the achievements fulfilled and the key factor it plays in our society today, for example as in The Limits to Creativity in Education: Dilemmas for the Educator It argues that the notion of creativity may be value– and culture–specific and that this poses the so–called liberal educator with various dilemmas of principle and pedagogy, which are explored (Anna Craft 1). In other words, technology is a blessing seeing all the doors its opened for us in the short amount of time its been here. But it's also a curse. In retrospect others might argue that technology helps open the door to a child's imagination. As stated in The Pros and Cons of Technology by Amanda Ronan on January 16, 2017; Technology gives children the ability to learn in ways their parents and grandparents never had. Today's learners have immediate access to answers and research. Yet, that immediate access is changing the way students think about work and how they feel emotionally (Amanda Ronan). This significant emotional change is centered around the deprivation on other social outlets. The youth of today's social and educational status is complete centered around where they rank in the chain of technological coherency. Seeing how tablets and computers are replacing textbooks due to everything being encrypted into software anyone that hasn't evolved is sure to be left behind in a stone age of their own. ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  6. Argumentative Essay On Women Women Can The mentality of mankind today is, "Men must prove themselves and take care of their fragile women." It is the right of every human in the United States, to say the very least, to be treated as equals no matter what race, religion, skin color, gender, class, etc. they are. Being specified now, is the equality of genders. Men are given such big and heavy–duty tasks which leave them playing big and important roles in society. It is not by the choice of women to be downgraded to such small and simple tasks that they are given daily. Women should not be belittled by men or any individual in general, because they are capable of performing any task just as well as men. There are debates in classrooms, workplaces, and in general conversations about what men can do that women cannot. In history classes, teachers often explain how feminist society was "back in the day." Females were given the job of staying home and taking care of the children. They were to have meals prepared, ready for when the men got home from a long day's work and do laundry. It was not until the mid–1800's that women were given permission to work somewhere else besides their home. Textile mills began to open which employed over 7,000 unmarried women. During the years of World War I, they were hired as nurses to aid the wounded soldiers. At that time, the lives of many men were in their hands. From then on, females played a big role in hospitals. Once women were allowed to study and work, they were ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  7. Argumentative Essay On Online Dating Over the past decade, online dating popularity has increase drastically. Even though the younger generation of society is in the transition from traditional to modern dating, people of all ages are beginning to test the modern way of communicating: online dating. Many people are curious if online dating is the best way to search for a partner in today's society. Is online dating actually the most successful way to find "the one"? Many people do not feel comfortable admitting that they participate in online dating simple because they are unsure of how society will judge them. Society is gradually becoming aware of the idea and accepting the newest form of dating and courting. How successful is this modern dating and how does it compare to traditional dating techniques? The world is such an enormous place, making traditional dating difficult to meet the number of people which online dating sites provide (Nicholson, 2014). Individuals may access partners with specific interests that may include lifestyle, personality, and orientation (Nicholson, 2014). A variety of dating sites offer matching tests, which theoretically help connect two individuals quicker than if they searched with the traditional method (Nicholson, 2014). People realize how effortless it is to search for a partner and immediately fall in love with the process. Online dating provides the opportunity for individuals to gain more personal information about the person prior to meeting face to face (Nicholson, ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  8. Examples Of Argumentative Essay Argumentative essay presents a point of view about something and explains the reasons in order to win readers' agreement. It is built around a specific statement (or main premise) that is debatable within the field in which students are studying. In other words, at the center of an argumentative essay is a statement with which readers may disagree. The argumentative essay will need to support that statement in a manner that convinces the readers of its truth. It mainly strives to convince the reader of the writer's point of view, using reasonable and ethical methods .The process of argument composition varies from writer to writer, most writers follow these three stages: forming an argument, which can consist of discovering a motive for writing and identifying an audience to address, discovering and sharpening a position, and developing an appropriate style; supporting the argument; and reviewing the argument, which can include considering the image projected by argument, making substantial additions or deletions to a first draft, and adding an introduction and conclusion (Cheng and Chen 2009, Day,1997, Liu,2005,Mayberry,2009)....show more content...

The second feature is the quality of logical reasoning which is assessed by analyzing the interrelationships of writers' assertions and the associated support or data provided to substantiate those claims. The third feature is identified as persuasive appeal, including affective appeal and establishment of writer credibility. Finally, she notes that audience awareness is an important characteristic of successful argumentative writing.

  9. Argumentative Essay Sample On Wednesday February 22, 2017 at about 1140 hours while present at Group #31 Office, Det. Greenwood and I interviewed Mr. Kevin Uter in regards to this complaint of missing property that occurred on 10/14/2016. During the interview Mr. Uter stated the following; Mr. Uter stated that he got arrested last October on Schaeffer St, while sitting inside his vehicle with a female that he met online from a website name tagged.com. Mr. Uter was unable to provide us with any information about the female that he was with. He continued to say that a few hours before he got arrested he did smoke marijuana inside the vehicle and the vehicle did smell like weed but while he was with the unknown female they were both smoking cigarette and not marijuana . While sitting on Schaeffer St. he observed about 4 vehicles passed him by and reverse. They claimed that...show more content... Uter stated that while at the arresting location, he observed an officer entered his vehicle and drove it to the police station. He was unable to recall who precisely drove the vehicle but he is certain that a police officer did drive off with his vehicle. He stated that upon arriving at the police station, his vehicle was parked at the precinct. Mr. Uter stated that the unknown female was never left inside the vehicle by herself. The officer asked her for her name and some other information and they let her go. Mr. Uter was asked if he had any money on his person and he replied, "No". He further stated that none of officers counted any of his money in front of the Desk Officer but they simply fill out a piece of paper in front of the desk and they took him to the cell area. The only time he interacted with an officer was when he was asked to sign a piece of paper. Mr. Uter stated that he is reporting this now because his case is at the Grand Jury and he had to hire his own lawyer to represent him. He stated that the legal aid lawyer did not provide him with all the necessary information in regards to his ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  10. Argumentative Essay Homework Many students in school struggle to complete piles of homework assigned to them each night. Some wonder if homework is really critical to learning, and many wish homework wouldn't exist at all. These people argue that homework is overwhelming and it takes away most of their free time at home and is just "busy work". While some people may feel this way, I personally believe that homework is a key point of learning because it teaches time management and helps solidify what was learned during the day. Homework was first introduced to American schools around 1940, During this time, many students were not as invested in getting good grades. This was because there were other things that interested students; like farming or serving in the military. At that time, there were many valued occupations that didn't require rigorous education, and with WWII going on many had their minds elsewhere. Colleges were much easier to get into because there was less competition for spots. Because of that, working hard at school wasn't as necessary as it is now since good grades didn't pave the road to success like it does today. Since students didn't try as hard and weren't as focused, of much the information they learned during the day was quickly forgotten. Teachers, who realized this, decided to develop a strategy to force students to recall what they learned throughout the day; They decided to force students to do take home work to retain information better. Over the years children started ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  11. Argumentative Essay On Climate Change Climate change can be traced down to since the mid–1800s, when the industrial revolution first started taking place all around the world. Lives of human and animal species have been negatively affected since then, with events such as natural disasters, the melting of ice in polar regions, and change in weather and living conditions. Climate change in polar regions, in particular, has faced the most damage compared to any other region because of its location in regard to the sun. Climate change holds many different views and opinions about the effects, and even the existence itself, but evidence is clear and unmistakable in global ramifications and local impact in polar regions. "...Climate change [is] the 'greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people'", skeptics like Senator Inhofe of Oklahoma like to say. Climate change is change in climate patterns due to an increase in carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases produced by certain human activity. According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, data taken by satellite has shown that the Arctic cover has decreased by 30% over the past 30 years, and this change, which also include change in sea ice and permafrost, in artic weather and climate is caused by humans. Although numerous scientists have confirmed the legitimacy of climate change, there are different views on whether climate change is real or not. Government officials like Senator Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma or Senator Marco Rubio of Florida have explicitly stated that they do not believe climate change is neither real, nor caused by humans (Tom McCarthy, 2014). On the other hand, mainstream media and other media outlets, such as The Independent and The Economist, have reported their findings of climate change and its legitimacy. The Independent (Conner, S. 2011) reported that records of these changes were taken by military submarines, land measurements, and satellite data to prove ice in polar regions are melting faster and faster. Satellites have tracked sea ice since the 1970s and by nuclear submarines since the Cold War, according to Peter Wadhams of Cambridge University and it was predicted that by September 2015, there would be no more sea ice. (Conner, S. 2011). Luckily, sea ice has not ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  12. Argumentative Essays Failure is the step towards success. Do you agree? It is often assumed that failure is a deterrent to achievement. Rather, failure should be seen as a motivator for a person to keep trying until the objective or aim of a particular mission is fulfilled. Failure often times leads a person to feel helpless, disappointed and depressed. However,one should not allow this to set them back in trying to achieve the ultimate aim one has set out to do. Failure in the beginning can often be a powerful incentive to reassess one's position in wanting to achieve the particular aims; to analyse whether the purpose is worth the trouble the person has to undergo and the whether the obstacles are surmountable. Practical and...show more content... Another disadvantage of being an only is that he lacks companionship. He has no brother or sister to confide in. Growing up as an only child can be very lonely. If you have siblings you will have to share everything, so you get less; but you also get less of the bad things. Siblings can support and comfort each in times of trouble. The elder siblings learn to care for the younger ones and the younger ones learn to respect their elder siblings and have someone to look up to besides their parents. You are more balanced person than an only child. Another advantage of having siblings is that your parents' attention is divided among your siblings. As a result, there is less pressure on you to perform well, be it academically or in other areas. Having siblings also means that you have companionship, the joy of caring and sharing, and security. I, personally, am happy that I am not an only child. Students should not take up part time jobs. Discuss. Nowadays, students love to have part–time jobs. Their parents approve it easily as they are said to gain experience from working. However, having a job is a big responsibility for a student. Before, teenagers at their age were working to help their family because of poverty. Nevertheless, they were actually eager to study and learn at school for their future. It was not the same as the teenagers nowadays where they are more likely competing to each other to have a job. Most of the ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  13. Argumentative Essay On Organ Donation The medical industry had been achieving more in the stage of medical advancements, though they are still in the early phase. Artificial organs have been one of those achievements. Although they have achieved such, artificial organs are not perfect. Most doctors as well as patients would prefer to replace a dying organ with a compatible human organ, rather than with an artificial or animal organ. Yet due to a there being less organs donated than recipients, artificial and animal organs are becoming more common in transplants. Most of this issue is because people are unaware of how organ donation works, the organs that can be donated, how many people are in need, and the advancements that have happened in the field. Organ donation saves hundreds of lives every year, but many lives are recklessly lost due to a shortage of organ donors. Organ donation is the medical process of voluntarily giving one or more of your organs to someone in need, whether it be someone you know or a stranger. It is strictly voluntary, no payment for the organ/s will be given from the hospital, the recipient or the recipients family. In organ donation, there are two types of donations, living organ donation and deceased organ donation. Living organ donation is when the donor is still alive and voluntarily chooses to donate one or more of their organs to a recipient(s) in need. Whereas, deceased organ donation happens after the donor has passed away, and consent was given to be able to donate their organs. In living organ donation, before a donor can donate there are tests administrated to see if the donor is suitable to donate. There is an evaluation of the donor done to make sure that no physical, psychological, or emotional harm will happen to them before, during, or after donating (Organdonor.gov U.S. Government Information on Organ Donation and Transplantation). In living organ donation, most donations happen within family members, or between close friends, although there are stranger donations that happen. Living organ donors should generally be physically fit, in good health, and between the ages of 18 to 60. They should not have a history or have diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure, kidney disease, or heart disease ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  14. Argumentative Essay On Minimum Wage Minimum wage Minimum wage has caused controversy throughout history between the two parties in government, the Democrats and Republicans, debating if they should increase minimum wage or not. Minimum wage was first established during 1938 under President Franklin D. Roosevelt (Sessions). The first act to enforce employers to pay its employees is the Fair Labor Standards Act which followed the Social Security Act (Sessions). Minimum wage started as twenty–five (25) cents per hour which doesn't seem like a lot, but it was at that time (Sessions). The United States tended to raise the minimum wage when the standard of living changed. Since 1938, two other amendments were created to increase minimum wage laws even more. By 1961, minimum wage raised to $1.15 with another increase in 1963 (wages). Since the 1963 wage change, minimum wage created a trend of increasing yearly or every other year (Wages). From 2007 to 2009 minimum wage increased each year making the current minimum wage $7.25 (wages). Sine minimum wage has been established, Congress has increased minimum wage twenty–two times (22) (). Since minimum wage is supposed to change when the standard of living changes, then why hasn't the United States government changed it since 2009? Minimum wages laws fluctuate throughout all fifty (50) states. The federal government has minimum wage set at $7.25. Although the government has the law in place, states and cities must right to increase the minimum wage, but they are not allowed to decrease the value below the federal law. According to Caplinger, there are about twenty– one (21) states that have a minimum wage higher than the national level. These states that have higher minimum wage tend to have a higher population. For example, California, as a state, has decided to increase their minimum wage law due to the standard of living. This law to raise minimum wage to ¬¬¬$10.50 in California is in progress to take effect in January 2018(Kravosky). Some cities within states, can create their own minimum wage. Cities create these minimum wages based on the population size, cost of living, and size of the city. For example, Atlanta, Georgia has a minimum wage of $15 an hour but the state of Georgia has minimum wage set ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  15. Argumentative Essay On Sexual Abuse Imagine being robbed of your innocence in a matter of seconds. Imagine not being able to speak out due to threats and fear of seeking help and not being taken seriously. Troubling, is it not? Sexual abuse has always been a problem in society that can affect anyone. Sexual abuse brings along many negative outcomes; however, throughout the years, sexual abuse has been a factor that has always been ignored. Even though sexual abuse has had many attempts to be avoided in various environments, all have failed. Many individuals tend to misinterpret sexual abuse and it's true delicacy. Although sexual abuse is often a violation against women, both genders can be victims. Victims can succumb to mental disorders, including PTSD and depression, which can initiate an unhealthy lifestyle to the point of triggering a contemplation of suicide. Nevertheless, sexual abuse has always been biased towards women relative to men for as long as we can remember. Considering the fact that sexual abuse can occur to both genders, it is mostly known to victimize women. One of the most common environments for sexual abuse to take place is in academic domains. In the view of society, men are above women; in consequence, women portray a weak image, hence making easier casualties of sexual abuse in the educational field. Due to the fact that students may need guidance to better excel in their career, some professors begin treating it as an opportunity to gain sexual access from the student. To better illustrate the idea that sexual abuse makes its way through into academic environments, take the word from the victims themselves. "I was naive enough to think that we would talk about Wittgenstein, but after he flopped over me a few times, telling me that I had to have sex with him... I made my escape" (Whitley 39). Moreover, another victim said "I couldn't say 'no' because he would have responded with rage and revenge. He would have ruined my career"(Whitley 39). In both cases, these women were attacked by the professors for being of lesser status; they were manipulated to remain silent by fear, threats, and their dependence on the professor for academic help. Due to the idea that women are viewed lesser than men, inflicts professors' to ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  16. Argumentative Essay On Renewable Energy Renewability For nearly everyone on earth, fossil fuels are a part of our daily lives. Some of the more obvious places to find petroleum products would be gas and diesel in cars and trucks, but it is in more than just your tank. Without fossil fuels, we would not have things such as plastic to make a wide variety of things such as tires, kayaks, or even computers. The question remains, do we need fossil fuels? In this day and age, we have new energy sources that could be used to power our homes and transportation. Wind and solar power are used all over the world, but are still used far less than fossil fuels. Most would say it's not reliable or it doesn't make any profit. While both statements are true, it doesn't mean we can't make a better future using renewable energy. In fact, the only reason we don't use renewables for everything is that we don't want to change. The hard truth is we need to change. Fossil fuels are great right now, but if we run out, humanity must have another source of energy. Renewable energy may seem like a daunting task, but the benefits to humanity could be incredible. Public uses of renewable energy range from transportation all the way to heating and cooling. Everything we use could become less explosive and less expensive. Cities with a high concentration of people could become safer and healthier places to live. Transportation could be converted to electricity dramatically, improving smog conditions. Global warming may or may not ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

  17. Argumentative Essay On Memorials Memorializing events in the history of the world for any purpose has it's positives as well as the negatives. Ranging from a memorial of a popular United States president from a loved one of a family, memorials have generally served as a purpose of remembrance from the past of said event. The purpose of the memorial is usually associated with a positive, uplifting feeling towards the deceased individual or past event. While this is more or less simply defining what memorials are for, what is the meaning behind them? What purpose do they serve besides the simplicity that they are? Important messages from a few varied sources will give a differing viewpoint on memorials from one to another. The first thought of memorials is the simple, generic...show more content... Memorials are meant to be striking in the sense that you will notice said memorial and donate some attention to it. The views of these see this attention capturing as exceedingly high for some purposes. Some memorials are outstanding in their craftsmanship and aesthetics. This makes people wonder what could be lurking inside the memorial, or what is near that memorial. What we've got here is a formula, striking looks of the monument is almost guaranteed to attract some form of attention. According to Source G, the analogy of tainting the planet with specific memorials are ridiculous, "I imagined taking a knife and cutting into the earth, opening it up, an initial violence and pain that in time would heal. The grass would grow back, but the initial cut would remain a pure flat surface in the earth with a polished, mirrored surface, much like the surface on a geode when you cut it and polish the edge. The need for the names to be on the memorial would become the memorial; there was no need to embellish the design further. The people and their names would allow everyone to respond and remember. The ideals of such nonsensical placements of the memorials are just irritable at the ...Get more content on HelpWriting.Net...

I was a little worried when I signed up to take this course, since it counted as a college credit. Even though I was worried about taking this course, but I am thankful that I did. The main reason behind my decision to take this course is because I thought it would better prepare me for college. This argumentative essay was one of the hardest essay that I have written.

Granite, there were parts of my essay where I successfully integrated quotes within my voice, but for the most part that was my weakest area. For example of one of my better integrated quotes, in my third paragraph when I say, "Today, consumers rely on social media for everything, whether it is communicating with old friends, finding new friends, shopping, researching, and staying informed with the latest news. Daniel adds that, "'Americans who take part in political activities on social networking sites also tend to be highly active in other areas of political or civic life'" (29), which insinuates that people rely on social media more today than we have in the past". This was one of my better examples because I further explain and analyze the quote in my voice instead of just ending the sentence after the quote. One of my poor examples is, "Many people who suffer from depression care a lot about what others think about them. That is why many of those people tend to turn to social media as an outlet to express their feelings". I made a bold statement and did not back up what I said with my voice I just ended that sentence and moved on. Instead of moving on I should have explained it further and told them why people tend to turn to social media to express their feelings.

  19. Argumentative Essay On Academic Competition Competition. This word varies in connotation. To some, it symbolizes joy, triumph, and self– satisfaction, while for others the word represents worthlessness and failure. Since an early age, kids are taught about competition through games and sports. Kids develop skills like sportsmanship, integrity and fair play. Competition is like water in a sieve. To argue that competition does not exist is like saying that water is not leaking from a sieve when only one hole is clogged. Competition is everywhere. In today's society, there has been a lot of controversy over academic competition in school. Many see academic competition has a looming rain cloud that hangs over the students who excel differently, and cannot find success in the standard school system. They see competition as emphasis on arbitrary performance. Yet, competition is not all that bad. Competition is what helps us learn and grow as people.
