I need help with my Romeo and Juliet essay?

I believe people shouldn’t be pressured and follow what other‘s say. Over the years people have pressured me to do stuff for them, but I do to not let them down. I always give my homework to my friend all the time, and others took it too. Later on I stopped because I know it won’t help them, and I would like to see them suffer. It’s not like I want to, but I won’t let myself be pushed around for people that can’t do things, and force other to do it.

Update:

Is this a good introduction ?

I cant post the rest tho...

    Well, you make a nice point! Problem is, I/ we/ you should be avoided at all costs, and said at a minimum/ never. So basically you're talking about being an individual, trusting yourself, and being assertive towards those who are manipulative, correct? So I think you emphasize that nicely, but again we have that issue of talking about yourself in an objective essay :( I suggest starting with a different approach such as, " Just as a kind person is numb to their generosity, a manipulative person is numb to their hasty intentions. When one lets these manipulative people into their lives, more often than not they get betrayed, used and belittled." That was NOT a great example( came up with that in 30 secs, but you get the idea) but an example of how to start off the essay! Best of luck!!

    OH and one more thing- ALWAYS give examples from text, and explain why you chose that example! I would forget this ALL the time from 6-10th grade, but now I've realized that it adds greatly to your work!

    Sounds way too informal. Don't ever use 1st person in an essay i.e. "I, we, us, etc" Try making a good claim and elaborate on it with commentary from real life experiences and make it formal to use in a essay but still inspirational.
