The question on whether young people can be able to initiate positive change in their communities has been here for a while. I strongly agree that young people can change communities. Although, young people can or cannot be able to initiate positive change in their communities based on different factors which include: attitude, literacy levels, influence, environment and much more. The environment young people might either influence or discourage their positive addition to the community, for instance, a young person in an abusive environment who is neglected cannot have time to think positively about his contribution to the community, he might be involved in actions which otherwise harm the society to fill the gap of his needs. Young people are generally rebellious and shall always feel pushed to the wall to behave in a certain manner, due to this they always seem negative in their contribution to their community.

paine is arguying that they had tried everything before coming to the conclusion that they needed to fight for their freedom.

argument: "every quiet method for peace hath been ineffectual."

claim 1: "our prayers have been rejected with disdain; and only tended to convince us, that nothing flatters vanity, or confirms obstinacy in kings more than repeated petitioning and nothing hath contributed more than that very measure to make the kings of europe absolute."

claim 2: "wherefore, since nothing but blows will do, for god’s sake, let us come to a final separation, and not leave the next generation to be cutting throats, under the violated unmeaning names of parent and child."

different strategies reach different people based on their ability to understand the material. (from personal experience) when writing an argumentative essay write explaining the subject as though your audience never heard of it before and it is just being introduced, then explain why other people hate it also, afterward you would explain why that would be wrong. i hope that : )
