Recommendation Of Joan Turner's Argumentative

Decent Essays
I am writing this letter of recommendation to high recommend Joan Turner for a position as a nanny or caretaker. I have known Joan Turner for 9 years, during which I have gotten to know her very well. I trust her completely and if you are in need of a nanny, I would not hesitate to hire her for the position.
Joan shows nothing but patience, and understating towards my children. She fed the children nutritionally balanced meals and snacks, and with my son Dylan, she even helped to potty train him. She was consistent, and firm with negative behaviors; while caring and loving when they needed help and reassurance. She was willing and able to help our kids tackle any issues that they faced. When my daughter faced any challenge, Joan was there

    Reading this statement the my first understanding of the quote is defined as, having a society where “fantasies” are demanded by order and are also created by order. This might first be hard to understand but while looking through the work of Laura Mulvey we come to understand that “phantasy” is a mixture of sexual desire and self-image. Mulvey states, “During its history, the cinema seems to have evolved a particular illusion of reality in which this contradiction between libido and ego has found a beautifully complementary phantasy world.” (VP & NC pg. 308).…

    On the topic of participation awards, Lisa Heffernan and Vivian Diller have both published articles advocating either for, or against rewarding children at a young age, regardless if they’ve won a game or not. In terms of making a strong argument, both writers used celebrity testimonies, life experience, and quotes from reputable sources, some tactics more effective than others. In Lisa Heffernan’s article favoring participation trophies, “In Defense of Participation Trophies: Why They Really do Teach the Right Values,” she often pulls from her most powerful and relevant source to her topic- her son. Statements such as “When my son was around eight years old … he scoffed at the very idea that such an award existed.” would play a critical role in setting up a counter argument, but much like her other quotations in her article, it was followed by a statement from Hillary L. Friedman, a sociologist, that initially seems to back up her son’s opinion.…

    Corey Turner remembers collecting participation trophies from the YMCA soccer program he was involved in as a young athlete. These trophies are now sitting in a dusty box somewhere in his parent's basement. This leads him to question whether or not young athletes should receive trophies for just showing up. Corey Turner is not alone, people across the nation have debated this issue for as long as youth sports have been in existence. I believe that kids should not get trophies for participating because kids should learn life lessons from both wins and losses and participation trophies do more harm than good.…

    Social worker and reformer Florence Kelly, strived to make a mark on the pitiful and unfair working condition that were present through the early nineteen hundreds. Through the use of a creative and elaborate speech Kelly forced the women of Philadelphia to stand up for children’s rights and form the National American Woman Suffrage Association.

    The governor of Connecticut recently proposed raising the age of juvenile jurisdiction to twenty-one as a way of keeping young offenders out of incarceration. In the ensuing debates on whether this is a good idea or not, experts also disputed the appropriate cut off age for juvenile court. Carmen Daugherty, in her article “No One Younger Than 18 Should Be Tried as an Adult,” suggests eighteen as the age limit. She attempts to persuade readers that the practice of trying, sentencing, and incarcerating youth under eighteen in the adult criminal justice system should be terminated as it fails to meet the needs of adolescents. Daugherty appeals to logos to support her claim.…

    The enterprising nature of the settlers who began farming in the west was in line with Turner’s thoughts about Americans. These Americans moved west to establish their farms in what was considered territory inhospitable to farming. These farmers claimed land under the Homestead Act, and also bought land outright as well. The land was adapted and American farmers began to learn the ebb and flow of business in West’s farmlands. (Text Pgs. 496-498).…

    The system of slavery, which brutally exploited the labour of a large and primarily Black population, shaped the history of the United States of America for over four hundred years (Davis: African Slavery, Sept 28). A primary tactic that was implemented in the system was to eliminate any motive of forming black communities by discouraging family ties. Many slaves resorted to documenting and preserving these experiences of slave cruelty through slave narratives, a genre of literature similar to autobiographies. Slave narratives can be regarded as a source that appeals to collective humanity through the complicated and multilayered acts of resistance carried out by the protagonists against their masters. By using Harriet Jacobs’ narrative entitled…
