Is this a good persuasion topic?
So I have to give a 7-10 minute persuasion topic to my class. I want to do something a little bit different. My idea is something like "With all the distractions in life, it is important to have and keep friends". I chose this topic because I read an article saying that having no friends is almost worse then smoking and actually lessens your life expectancy.
I know it sounds almost like an informative speech but I think if I word it right, I can make it into a persuasion speech in talking about the importance and how you should make and keep freindships rather then just go by life waiting for people to come to you.
