Argumentative Essay On Glass Trifles

236 Words1 Page

(Need better logic) However, glass railings would provide a better view for the younger kids or any household pets. They will be able to enjoy the view outside instead of looking at an opaque wall or peeking through the traditional vertical wooden bars. Kids or pets may even get their heads stuck in between the bars of the sidings, thus making the glass railing a more practical option. Most people like to keep their plants on their decks or porches for various reasons. However strong gusts of wind could damage plants and other objects on the deck.
