Mothers and fathers are equally obligated to take care of their children

This is a very formulaic essay, so it is import that you follow the form that is laid out for you, trying not to deviate from it as much as you can;
The “Rough Draft Model,” which will show you what the finished product will look like.
In the \LessonsEssay Cycle 3: Argumentative Essay folder you will find general info on the argumentative/persuasive concepts, both from our on-line text and also from several short videos/articles listed at the bottom.
Next, I would refer to our \SupplementalTopics folder and try to skim through everything from the doc “Discussion:Disagreement:Argument:Fight” on to the bottom. I realize there is a lot, thus the word “skim.”
Six things to keep in mind:
This is a formulaic essay— follow the formula;
Your thesis, which will come early in your first paragraph, will need to include your issue and position, plus a brief statement of your three support points. If you look at the “Forms & Ideas” doc, you will see how this fits in with the form, and how it effectively becomes the template for the rest of your essay;
An argument must have at least two sides to it— for our purposes, you cannot argue a fact, or something that no one actually disagrees with. I recommend picking a large issues, as I did with the model where I picked the legalization of marijuana in Georgia;
Just as in our last essay (Compare & Contrast), you cannot use the first person point of view, nor can you use opinion words and phrases. Arguments are stronger if something is stated as a fact and not as an opinion, and the ultimate goal of the persuasive/argumentative essay is to persuade or convince someone to come over to your way of thinking;
You will need to find three-five unique accredited secondary sources for this one. You will be arguing from three support points, so basically you will use a source for each of your supports (example: in the model, on of my supports talked about the additional tax revenue legalizing marijuana would bring to Georgia– my source to provide credibility for that argument was a financial expert from a state where marijuana is legal);
You will not be graded on what you argue, nor the side from which you argue (provided your argument has meet the prerequisites). You will be graded based on the five domains of the rubric (doc also found in the \LessonsEssay Cycle 3: Argumentative EssayDr. Cattie’s Argument Cycle folder.

Doing and allowing harm

After completing the reading , “Killing and Letting Die” by Philippa Foot., respond to the following…

For this essay you will be applying the ‘Killing and Letting Die’ by Philippa Foot article to the COVID-19 lockdown. We were told to stay home to ‘save lives,’ is that an accurate account or were we avoiding doing harm to others, according to Foot. Is staying home both saving lives and avoiding harm to others? Is applying Foot’s argument to the COVID-19 lockdown possible?

You must create an argument using the reading and your knowledge of the COVID-19 lockdown that we all experienced. You are required to use quotes from the Foot article to support your argument. No outside sources should be quoted or referenced for this assignment.
