They Say, I Say #3 "Her Point Is"

 1. In kid's sports, it is important to give them all participation trophies because it encourages kindness and support. Kids will be more determined to play sports or other activities if they can all get some kind of award. This also boosts morale and helps kids to reassure that they can do anything they want. Lots of parents agree that all the kids that played on the field worked hard, and why should they not be compensated for their work? Why should kids not all get rewards if they all participated and played their best? I urge children's sports leagues to consider giving all kids a trophy for playing their hardest and inspire kids to keep playing sports.

I believe that not all kids should get participation trophies because it does not teach them the right life skills. Giving everyone a reward teaches kids that you do not need to work hard in life to get what you want, and denies them of what the actual world is like. It would make no sense for the hardest working players to get the same rewards as the kids who put in no effort. Parents should question what participation trophies are teaching their kids.


2. To contradict what Zinczenko says about there being no inexpensive and convenient fast food options, there are many fast-food restaurants that offer a healthier option. For example, Chick-fil-A offers gluten-free buns, grilled chicken options, diet, and sugar-free drinks, and fruit, and salads. More fast-food chains are also adding healthier options to accommodate the people who don't want or can't have the foods they are serving. It is also affordable and convenient, which renounces Zinczenko's claims. 

Being overweight is just a stereotype. Weight can easily be lost by not eating fast-food and working out. A lot of people do not have the motivation to do so, but this does not suggest that it is an actual medical problem. Anyone who contradicts this idea is wrong because people can control what they put into their bodies and what they actively do. If it was a medical problem then why aren't people going to the doctors for it? People who are overweight do not deny that they can change the state of their bodies. Being overweight is just a stereotypical way of thinking, but not a medical problem.
