This essay is an argument and objection based essay that follows the 4 stage model posted below. The essay is on the reading "The Ties That Bind Duties to Family Members by Claudia Mills". I've linked pictures of the reading below as well. The essay is due by midnight tonight. I've already outlined the Debate Question and position for the essay, so all that is needed is an argument within the reading that supports it, as well as an objection to the argument. Debate Question: Do we have obligations to family members? Position: Affirmative

Instruction

1,000-1,500 words FOUR-STAGE MODEL: All Papers should use the Four-Stage Model, as described below. Although in Paper I, each stage will likely be a single paragraph, in later papers, some stages may be more than one paragraph. DO NOT INCLUDE INSTRUCTION PROMPTS IN YOUR PAPERS. (i) DQ & POS. What’s the Debate Question (DQ) & Position (POS)? Either (a) look for a “Yes/No” question, which allows for either an Affirmative (AFF) or Negative (NEG) POS. Or (b) look for a “What” question and create names for the two or more Accounts being considered as answers to that question – each Account is a POS on the “What” question. Clearly define any important terms, using examples. Why is this an interesting, important and/or difficult question? (NOTE: In most cases, a Yes/No framework is best.) Do not begin describing arguments and objections in Stage (i). (ii) ARG. What’s one (and only one) Main or Best Argument (ARG)? This could be (a) an ARG supporting the writer’s own POS, or (b) an ARG for a POS that the writer is objecting to. Describe the ARG fully. Give an example. Explain how it’s supposed to work. After Paper I, it may make sense to consider more than one ARG, but you should spend sufficient time describing each ARG, and provide an OBJ to each ARG in Stage (iii), and evaluate each ARG/OBJ pair in Stage (iv). (iii) OBJ. What’s one (and only one) Best Objection (OBJ) to this ARG? If in (ii), you described an ARG supporting the writer’s own POS, now (a) give the best OBJ – you can look for this best OBJ in the same reading, in another reading, or come up with it on your own. If in (ii), you described an ARG for a POS the writer is objecting to, now (b) give the writer’s own best OBJ. Whichever way you identify an OBJ – on track (a) or track (b) – describe it fully. Give an example. Explain how it’s supposed to work. (iv) EVALUATION. Which is stronger? The ARG or the OBJ? Be sure to spend as much time on this stage as you spend on each of the others – a high Critical Thinking score (CRIT – see Paper Rubric) depends on it. Quotation and Citation It is not required that you quote the writer in these papers, but it is required that you cite all claims you make about the writer’s position and arguments. For these papers, you will use the MLA style, which includes parenthetical notation and a Works Cited section at the end (the Works Cited section does not count toward the length requirement of the paper). Quotation and citation are explained in greater detail below in this document. NOTE: Quotation is not required, but there is a limit to how much you should quote. Quoted material should not take up more than a fourth of the paper. Formatting Requirements Spacing: double-spaced (not 1.8 or 2.2) Font: Times New Roman, 12 pt. type (not Arial, etc.; not 11 pt or 13 pt) Margins: 1 inch (left, right, and also top and bottom: all 1 inch, no more, no less) Page Numbers: Place a page number on each page with your last name preceding it, in the right, top corner (like this, for example: Name 1) Header: Within the first four double-spaced lines of the page, adjusted to the left margin, write: (i) your name; (ii) professor’s name; (iii) course title; (iv) date of submission Title: centered on the next double-spaced line after Header Begin Paper: on the next double-spaced line after Header (or Title, if you include one)
