Ju's Persuasive Writing

We should not be spending our days at the mall and talking on cellphones while we are young.

We should be free while we can because when we are older we will have heaps of time to do stuff like that and while we are still young we shouldn’t waste our time. We need to go outside and play and get into a bit of trouble sometimes and we can’t do that when we are older.

A lot of girls are putting on make up and trying to look as good as possible and just to be cool. But we shouldn’t care about doing stuff like that because we will have 30 or 40 years for it when we are older. We only have about 10 years to have fun and most of us have already wasted about 5 of those years.

I have met heaps of adults that regret not having fun while they could’ve and they all tell me to go outside and play and get muddy and wet and do whatever we want while we still have time.

I know heaps of people who look up to the adults and their sisters or brothers and try to be like them but when we get to that age we can do what they were doing and that gives us something to look forward to. Most people don’t know this but the adults and the teenagers are almost looking up to us, because we have barely any responsibilities and we are free to do whatever we want.

Overall I think that some people do act their age but more of us need to, because if we don’t we will regret it and we won’t get another chance.

This is my rubric of this piece of writing:
