Counter Argument: T.V.


Dear Writers,

In writing, we learned to improve our writing by presenting counter arguments in our essays. Today, I will give you a thesis statement for which you must write a counter argument paragraph. Remember a counter argument has the following structure:

          Although (thesis statement)some may argue that (counter argument). For example,(evidence for counter argument). However, (evidence for your thesis). Closing sentence restating your thesis.

         Although I love ice cream, some may argue that cake is better. For example, cake is used for celebrations such as birthdays, weddings, and baby showers. However, one can have ice cream cake or cake batter ice cream for any occasion. I love ice cream because it is the most wonderful, versatile treat!

Now, it is your turn. Write a counter argument paragraph for the following  thesis statement: 

Children should be able to have a T.V. in their room.

I look forward to reading your responses.

Your teacher,
Mrs. Braddy

  1. Although children should have a tv in their room some parents may argue that you can just come down stairs and watch it. For example,you parents may say that you are to lazy to come down stairs to watch the tv. However, If you have a tv in your room.then early in the morning you can watch it up in your room without waking your parents up. Children should have tv in their room. -Tilly

  2. Although baseball is the best sport, some may argue football is better. For example, everyone always lets their kids play football even though it's dangerous. Also, a lot of people collect football cards. However, baseball is also a sport kids can play. Furthermore, baseball cards are worth more than football cards. Clearly baseball is so much better than football

  3. Children should have tv in their room because you can watch stuff with the door locked and you can have peace and quiet. Although having a tv in a children's room is good some my ague that that is not right. For example, children have to sleep and not to stay up watching tv. Also children would just hog the tv from there family. However most children what to watch tv. Tv is just the best! Henry W.

  4. Children should have a tv in their room so that they can watch tv without their dad hogging the tv. Also if they're watching tv where the family does than you will probably get stuck watching My Little Ponies with your sister. If you watch tv with your family than you will probably get in a fight on what to watch. But if you watch tv in your room than their will be no fights.

  5. Although, children should have a tv in their room, some may argue that it is bad for a kid to have a tv in their room. For example, kids might stay up and watch it at night. However, if a kid has a tv in his or her room means they will not have to fight over the remote, or watch something boring that your mom or dad is watching. Kids should have a tv in their room.

  6. Although I think snakes are cool, some may argue that lizards are better. For example, lizards have legs and they are four times faster. Also, lizards are pets and are more popular pets than snakes. However, some lizards will abandon their babies at birth. Furthermore, snakes build nest for their young for their babies protection. They care for their young! Snakes are better than lizards.

  10. Although children should have tv's in their rooms, some parents may argue that children should not have tv's in their rooms. For example, they may be on it all night, they might be on it too much, or they might buy something. However, you won't have to argue on what movie to watch, you can watch movies in peace, and you can plug an Xbox into the tv.

  11. Although, children should have a TV in their room, some may argue that it is not useful to have a TV in kids room. For example, kids might watch their TV instead of doing homework. However, kids don't have to go downstairs or walk across the hall to watch TV because their tired. Kids should have a TV in their room.
