Yes, the characters are written realistically; the story wouldn’t be so popular if readers couldn’t identify with them. They aren’t just noble, stouthearted heroes in a story full of sunshine, they get hungry, wet, tired, scared, and they complain, just like any human being. They make mistakes and have to answer for them, they look up to others, such as Thorin or Gandalf, only to have them leave or pass away so that they must figure things out on their own. I’ve felt all those things: hungry, wet, tired, scared, confused, and sad. And I also felt the emotions along with them as I read; it felt as if I were one of their company.

The article, Overview of "The Hobbit" written by Don Akers, examines John Tolkien's influential work and informs the reader about the impact that Tolkien aimed for while writing fantasy novels. The author begins with explaining Tolkien's philosophy on the importance of fantasy and mythology within a culture; stating that his main purpose is to link the cultures of the past and present and thus making myths more credible. Myths from the past were borrowed by Tolkien and used to develop his worlds, as mentioned in the article. Acknowledgement bestowed upon Tolkien for laying the strong foundation for future fantasy writers.

Stay-at-home moms are constantly attacked by the media and their lives are compared to that of the toddlers they are raising. Entire books have been published like “Get to Work” by Linda Hirshman scolding stay-at-home moms for giving up valuable education so that they may raise a child they wanted. Nelson makes it clear that “Children don’t raise themselves.” People who chide these mothers seem to either forget or not realize how difficult it is to take care of a baby who can’t do anything by themselves. Feeding, clothing, and bathing are ther bare minimum that any parent has to do for their child let alone teaching them how to talk. Some women still work from home. Balancing a work life and a parent life is incredibly difficult under one roof.

This passage does contain an argument and the conclusion is in the last sentence - stating that the technique of using swabs is probably unreliable one-third of the time. The argument is based on induction.

The argument, though convincing contains some major assumptions made without any factual evidence which could be proven to be false or untrue if put to test. The following are some of the major loop holes present in the argument which weakens it.

1. Analyze Stanton 's use of induction and deduction to support her claim and develop the argument. 4-5 paragraphs.

Proposition- The content of a sentence that affirms or denies something and capable of being true or false.

Working parents have to deal with some problems when it comes to working and parenting. They have to both do their jobs in the workforce and care for their children at home in order to maintain their families. In other words, they cannot fully commit themselves to just working or parenting.

A deductively valid argument is an argument in which the premises succeed in guaranteeing the conclusion. In deductive arguments, the premises are intended to provide such strong support for the conclusion that, if the premises were true, then it would be impossible for the conclusion to be false. The truth of the conclusion is also contained within the truth of the premises, also supporting its cogency. In my argument the truth of its premises guarantees the truth of its conclusion; therefore this argument is deductively valid. This argument is also considered to be cogent because it has both satisfactory premises (true or plausible premises) and a structure that provides rational support for its conclusion.

​This argument precludes the fact that he may be home sick, or using paid time off. Therefore, this is not a sound argument, though the premises are true, as it does not account for other factors that may keep my husband home.
