watch a TV show?

Logos
99% of the time I get enough sleep on school nights, so one night of staying up late won't affect me. I usually get plenty of sleep. Please let me stay up tonight!

Ethos
I'm a responsible kid, I know that if I stay up late I'll still have to be attentive in my classes tomorrow and get all my schoolwork done. You can count on me. Please let me stay up tonight.

Pathos
If I don't watch this show, then all the other kids at school will make fun of me for being a geek and going to bed early. I won't be able to talk about the show with my friends, and I'll become a social outcast. Please let me stay up tonight.

Discuss which technique would work best on your parents?
The logos appeal used a statistic and common sense to make it sound reasonable for the student to stay up late one night
The ethos appeal used good character to convince the parents that the student is able to handle the responsibility of staying up late
The pathos appeal used guilt from social pressure and the bandwagon effect to convince the parents to let the student stay up late

Now You Try!
Think about how you might use each of the three appeals to convince your parents/guardians to buy you the latest expensive cell phone. On a piece of paper, write in your argument for each appeal.
