PEER REVIEW QUESTIONS - please respond in a different color font or in bold black to each of the questions below.

Essay Introduction Questions:

1. Explain, in a sentence or two, how the introduction of the essay introduces the problem. The introduction clearly states the unsafe practice of abortion.

2. Find and copy and paste the thesis below.  

· Does the thesis appear as the last sentence in the essay's first paragraph? There is a problem but no solution

· Explain if the thesis is manageable and convinces you by either explaning why the problem is in need of solution or how to solve the problem. The thesis states the problem that is occurring, but I don’t believe it provides a solution to the problem.

· If any element of the thesis mentioned here is missing, please remark accordingly in your review. I believe the solutions is missing from the thesis statement

 Background Paragraph (second paragraph):

1. Explain, in a sentence or two, how the author gives more depth about the history of the problem.  More history could be added but the author does use sources to back up the problem. A good amount of sources are used and fit the paragraphs ideas.

· Comment on the way the author elaborates.  Do you feel like you fully understand the depth and/or gravity of the problem? Yes, I feel like I understand the gravity of the problem. I do think more background could be used to elaborate more.

2. Identify and describe the evidence that the author gives to support the background knowledge regarding the problem

· What resources does the author use to support his/her evidence? The author uses (Erdman et al., 2020).

· Does the author cite the resouce according to APA in-text citations? Yes See  OWL at Purdue  for help with in-text citations in APA style. 

Solutions Paragraph(s) (third, fourth, and maybe even fifth paragraph):

1. Identify and summarize, in a couple of sentences, the solutions that the author provides to the problem. The author’s solution is that the law should provide protection to unborn children. An unborn child should be treated like a born child.

2. Identify and summarize, in a couple of sentences, the advantages and disadvantages the author provides for each solution. I think a disadvantage is that the law of abortion has gone both ways and no matter what the law says people will continue to do as the please. It may sound good on paper to have that protection, but people find a way around the law.

Conclusion Paragraph: 

1. Explain if the author rephrases--and not restates--the thesis in the final paragraph.  The thesis at the end is stronger. It states the authors problem and the solution.

2. Identify and explain, in a sentence, the best solution the author provides in the final paragraph. Address why s/he says it is the best solution.  If the best solution is not present, please comment accordingly in your review. Both born and unborn children should be accorded equal protection of the law. This is the best solution because some people can’t find a way around the law, and some will be punished for their actions. You cant break the law in a medical hospital, where the procedure would get done at.
