Persuasive Essay Over Water Bottle Pills

Have you ever saw something and asked yourself the question of just why? If you have not, then the activity of water bottle flipping will certainly have you asking. Water bottle flipping has become an international trend, starting when 18 year old Mike Senator did it for a talent show (http://fusion.net/story/306685/water-bottle-flip-video-watch/). If it is either in your own house or taking a stroll in the park, bottle flippers have been everywhere with the prime objective of throwing a water bottle into the air and trying to get it to land upright. But the real question people should be asking themselves, is if it is beneficial to them. In my opinion, bottle flipping is an activity that needs to stop, as it is unpleasant as it is distracting

The thudding sound of the water bottle landing on the table is very loud. The constant noise has been so bad, it has been banned in some schools. At Fulston Manor School in Kentucky has even banned water bottle flipping due to the amount of noise that it has made, and how it keeps the kids from learning (www.independent.co.uk). In the school, if a student is caught flipping a water bottle, they get a one-hour detention. It is the school's hopes that the rule they implanted would stop the craze and the noise. Though it can be annoying, some parents and teens are saying that it is a fun, interactive experience that can create many friends.

That is only one way that bottle flipping is bad for

If the thunking noise of the water bottles wasn’t distracting enough, the mere activity itself can be addicting. A teens thought of the satisfaction of the bottle landing perfectly keeps them constantly going back for more. The hope of them knowing that the next one could be it. And if it isn’t it goes repeats over and over again, until it finally happens. And then once they do land it, they want to see how many they can get in a row (www,azcentral.com). It becomes a long process that never truly stops. Kids will attempt this challenge for hours at a time, pulling themselves away from what they really need to accomplish. Some people say though that it keeps teens away from electronics and entertained in a cheap affordable way. Like I said in the paragraph before, bottle flipping is not the correct way to solve the problem. From doing sports to doing something educational, to simply talking to their parents and family, are much better ways to get teens off of their phones then water bottle flipping (www,azcentral.com). Obviously, water bottle flipping is not the best way to be fixing the problem of phone
