Clean up your room, and take out the trash!

anonymous · Answer

"Clean up your room, and take out the trash!" Many parents forces these two duties onto their kids as their "responsibility".

anonymous · Answer

*These two household chores*

anonymous · Answer

Better yet, "Clean up your room and takeout the trash!" Many parents forces these two everyday chores onto their children and call it their "Responsibility."

anonymous · Answer

Nailed it ^

anonymous · Answer

XD
Maybe, yeah. Using a relatable example is a great idea. :)

anonymous · Answer

Which ones did you have in mind?

anonymous · Answer

I'm not sure. I've been thinking maybe "Everyday, we are confronted with countless tasks and chores that seem pointless and trivial--why should we bother doing them? Why do we need to take care of our responsibilities, after all?"
And then go into the reasons why in the rest of the essay.

anonymous · Answer

Do chores without having to be told and doing them the right way as best as you can do them.

anonymous · Answer

I personally believe that hooks should be tried to be kept sweet and short. Something that will capture your audience.

anonymous · Answer

Yeah. That's why I'm asking for advice XD

anonymous · Answer

Sometimes, news anchors use hook statements at the start of their segment.

anonymous · Answer

Something like a over used line such as "With great Power, comes great responsibility" (Most superhero movies, superman, spiderman, etc) isn't a good hook to try to use. Lol

anonymous · Answer

Try to start fresh, and a bit out of the box.

anonymous · Answer

Yeah, that would be a bit cliche lol
Besides, most people don't actually have great power XD

anonymous · Answer

Chores is honestly the shortest one I can think of right now. Lol

anonymous · Answer

Another one would be like "Work; it's the most hated period of the day by many adults. Even though they don't have to go to work, it's their responsibility, as an adult"

anonymous · Answer

Chores is the shortest one I can think of though. Lol

anonymous · Answer

Okay, well ty for your help! ^_^
