Argumentative Essay: The Murder Of Mr. Griffin

Father Flynn is guilty of molesting the young boys attending the school in which he is a priest at. He is a rapist or at least is very much so hinted at being one.

The following quote exhibits the evidence in which Father Flynn is guilty of being a molester.

The young children have negative feelings towards the same treatment throughout. Children want to eliminate participation awards because its seems unfair to the winners that persevered. If they are treated unfairly they will grow up assuming that others will receive the same credit and ultimately fail. Trophies for no reason are why the standards of competitiveness are falling. It is definitely known that awards everyone involved in a competition decreases the fight for first place.

In this particular situation, Scout previously got into an argument with a classmate, Cecil Jacobs. When her father is informed, he tells her to be smart instead of physical when she faces a problem. Atticus does not condone fighting in his family, so he teaches them to “fight” using intelligence.

When Han came to the school, he wasn't used to a class monitor bossing everyone around, and shortly after coming, he decided to tell the teacher about Om. To Han’s disappointment, the teacher did nothing but praise Om and commend him in keeping the classroom so orderly. Han knew that Om was just putting on a show for the teacher, but at that point Han figured it was time to give up. When Om impressed the teacher, Han just gave up and wasn't willing to endure and try again. If Han had kept trying, he probably would have gotten Om in trouble eventually.

Keating’s teaching methods. I feel that Mr. Keating’s unfiltered passion, verve, and emotion, renders him too idealistic to be a truly effective and productive teacher. Throughout the play, he constantly pushes his students to be nonconformists. However, rather than producing a class full of thinking individuals, Mr. Keating produced a class full of conformists to nonconformity. As Glatthorn points out, in the end of the play, the students conform to Welton’s standards when “[the students] all conform with the school administrators' attempts to break up the "Dead Poets Society" and dismiss the teacher.”

From the start, Charlie is shown to have problems controlling his emotions. Charlie retaliates against a fellow student who is bullying him and ends up injuring the other student badly (7). Charlie then becomes hysterical because before the incident Charlie had not done anything to the other student. Charlie’s brother had to pick him up early from school as a result (8). This may signify that Charlie is repressing some sort of emotion from a past traumatic event.

This can be seen in the way he is driven to suicide because he is failing a class and the way he offers to write the essay for everyone at the end of the detention because he is “the smartest”. Control theory also goes along with peer pressure and social sanctions. This theory states that compliance with social norms requires strong bonds between individuals and society. This is seen when John distracts Vernon and sacrifices himself to get caught when they sneak out instead of everyone getting in trouble. This demonstrates the level of compliance given to Vernon because the other characters are scared of being caught.

I chose the Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt. The moral of this book is how it feels to have a school that is not normal, and have a teacher hate your guts. This book is about a seventh grader named Holling Hoodhood, and he goes around the school, acting serious about things. When things go downhill and all his classmates get mad at him, he tries his best to fix it. Mrs. Baker hated Holling, but then Holling acted like a friend to her, and the hate relationship was over.

He ran away when pap kidnapped him, partly because he was sick of getting beat and dealing with his dad’s alcoholism, and also for the reason that he just wanted to be free.

Shirley Jackson tries to explain to the readers that lying to someone else about something important can often lead into more trouble. In the story, Laurie causes mischief at school, and lies to his parents that a boy named Charles caused all of the trouble that he had actually did. By creating Charles, Laurie had to keep lying to his parents in order for him to stay out of trouble at home. However, Laurie’s parents became suspicious of Charles when they found out that he became a helper at school, and later discovered themselves that Laurie was the source of the trouble within the classroom. This probably made his parents infuriated; more so than if he simply confessed earlier.
