writing assignment

 We've spent some time in and out of class thinking about arguments for licensing parents. I want you to write a three-page paper (11-12 point font, double spaced) that states your opinion on this topic and your reasons for your opinion. In other words, I want you to create an argument to support/prove your view on licensing parents.

Importantly, I want you to state whether it is deductive or inductive and explicitly state the premises and conclusion of the argument. Once you've made sure that your argument is valid (if you are giving a deductive argument) or strong (if you are giving an inductive argument), try to show that your premises are true or at least plausible (i.e. seems believable). If you succeed, then you will have shown that your argument is either sound or cogent.
