Here is this week's topic for your blog:
Would you give up television for a year if it meant you would get straight A's?
If you vote "yes," explain why you think this sacrifice would be
worthwhile. What do you watch on television that you would miss most?
How would earning straight A's positively impact your life?
If you vote "no," explain why you would not sacrifice television
for straight A's. Why wouldn't straight A's motivate you to turn off
the television? Why is television an important part of your life? Is
there something else you would sacrifice for better grades?
