A good argument is like a strong story, it has clear parts and makes sense. Imagine you’re trying to convince your friend that chocolate ice cream tastes better than vanilla. If you just say ‘chocolate is better,’ that’s not very convincing. But if you explain why chocolate has more flavor, and give examples of people who love it, then your argument becomes stronger.
Examples
- A kid says, 'I should get a cookie because I’ve been good all week.'
- A parent argues, 'We need to go to bed now, it’s past your bedtime!'
- A friend tells you, 'You’ll be late if you don’t leave right now.'
