Do you think that we should have gum in school? Well in my opinion I think gum should not be allowed in school! One of three reasons is that gum is not healthy for you, another is that people fight over for a piece of gum. Finally the janitor has extra work to do after school.
One is that gum is not healthy for you. One example that gum is bad for you is that every piece you eat contains up to eight calories. Some gum packs have too much sugar that can make you hyper. Sometimes people swallow the gum and they might need to get surgery to get the gum. Finally, just imagine if you chew gum everyday and then you go to a doctor for a sugar check and doctor say you have too much sugar in your blood and then you need to take some medicine to make your blood sugar lower. Do you want that or not?
My second reason is that students sometimes argue over a piece of gum, one student might say that I want that and the other guy says I want that piece of gum. One example is that you get hurt in a fight over a piece of gum, and get in trouble. Also a student can get in trouble for lying. One student might say I did not started the fight but he will get in trouble anyway over a piece of gum. For this reason, gum should not be allowed in school.
My final and third reason is that a janitor has extra work to do after school. One way a janitor has extra work to do after school is that they have to clean up all the gum wrappers. My second reason is that they have to take the gum off from under the student’s desk. My third reason is that some people just throw their gum on the floor and the janitor vacuums the floor and then his vacuum does not work because of students throwing their gum on the floor. If you were a janitor would want to do that?
In conclusion, gum is bad for you because it is not healthy. Also, student might fight over a piece of gum, and the janitor has lot of extra work to do. Some gum contain up to 8 calories per piece. Students sometime get in trouble over...
