pursuasive argument

My life to this point has been good and it seems there has been little controversy regarding my views. To write a paper about one of my views that I have never been opposed to seems to be hard for me. Maybe this shows my ignorance or maybe I am just being nave but it is my belief that this is the essay I was meant to write. Besides many persuasive arguments are written by kids who want to "show up" authority. These children who have yet to learn the way of the world want to complain about petty and insignificant reasons. Sure I can write a paper about something such as kids should have no curfew, but as I look at that I wonder who would really care to read that type of paper. Then of course there is the other side: the very mature argument. These would include a topic such as "Is there a divine spirit or greater being in this world-. But at this point in my life these types of questions and my views on them are hard to explain. I believe that in this world you should not have to force your religious beliefs upon someone else. They believe what they believe, and who am I to challenge another person's religious beliefs. I simply don't think that it is my place to say what another believes is wrong no matter my reasons. Maybe a subject such as kids should be able to play video games any time they please might be plausible. As adults we seem to look at things on down the road. Who looks 15 years down the road and expects video games to be that big of a deal to the kids of today? .
             A big subject such as gambling has been debated often. But, how would I write a paper about that? Having only reached my eighteenth birthday, I've not yet had an opportunity to do it? .
             Kids my age should be more concerned about teenage pregnancy, rape, abortion. But, instead, these kids decide to write about wanting to legalize marijuana. In these essays they never are able to say what they are truly feeling. Let's be honest; kids don't care that weed is a big cash crop, they don't care that it can make clothes or can be helpful when used for medicinal purposes.
