Discipline of Children
In early stages when a child shows signs of disability or handicap not many see
them as human or equivalent. In the other hand there are the ones that understand and
comfort the handicap. Today, schools continue to suspend and expel students with
disabilities for behavior caused by their disabilities Peter W. D. Wright and Pamela Darr
Wright. In Behavior Problems & Discipline shows more information in detail regarding
the variety of problems and solutions that on daily basis a child with disabilities or
handicap has to go thru. Ethos, pathos, and logos are applied to educate the public of the
constant discipline issues that are going on.
Purpose
To show every kind of proper solutions to discipline all children with aid .The
discipline of children has a lot of factors been one of the most debatable topics that is
addressed to the audience. Many believe that the best way to disciple children is by
teaching them the skills they need or otherwise they become depressed, frustrated, or
angry. Fortunately, the website named www.wrightslaw.com/info/discipl. Displays more
information and ideas regarding how to discipline children in a neutral and understanding
way for the public to create their own opinion of this issue.
Audience
The audience that is intended to look up with website for information is parents with a
child with a disability or handicap issues. Considering, a kid that is showing signs of
mistreatment in public because of handicap or disabilities issues, parents that do not have
this problem are no the intended audience. Focusing the information on parents issued
from the website misguides that schools is a targeted audience too.

Ethos
First of all, credibility is one of the important segments that frequently shown everywhere
in the website. When opening the website immediately credibility is shown and presented
for the audience to get a well understanding that FAQS and articles are well stated.
Automatically when reading the website the first paragraph states the special education
law was passed in 1975, Congress found that most handicapped children were not
receiving an appropriate education (Peter W. D. Wright and Pamela Darr Wright). The
organization of the website is helps to create more credibility and to easily find
information for the people looking for answers. Listing the issues has a great impact on
showing credibility. Not only that there are many ways to get in contact with them via
Facebook, Twitter, and email. There is still a chance that the reader could be lost within
the links because of all the information that is given. In many cases all the data that is
given one can give and opinion or comment relating to the case that the reader is into
more.
Pathos
Second to ethos, pathos has a great impact on the readers mind to have a better
understanding on the severity of the missed attention that handicap or disabilities are
getting. Reading more and more the feeling of emotion start to arise once the reader starts
to recognize the real meaning of having a disability. In a section revealing pathos in way
that connect readers and the kids says children from kindergarten through 12
th
grade
receive harsh punishments, often for minor infractions that pose no threat to safety
(Harvard Civil Rights Project). Going thru those harsh punishment make the reader have
emotional connection with the kids those issues. Using the words depression, anger, and

bullying has the reader in a state of mind to have an emotion towards those kids with
disabilities.
Logos
Finally, logos is where all the information takes a great leap towards making the website
more interesting. By providing knowledge derived from the data, cases, and FAQS the
reader has a better perception to what is really happening to those kids with a disability or
handicap problem. This advice that was written on the website speaks for itself if we can
teach elephants, lions and tigers to behave, we can teach out ADHD children to behave
(Discipline and the ADHD Child). When the website sites the historical cases regarding
school suspending or expelling disabled kids, it appeals to the reader even more. Having
a better social connection with the audience via email, Facebook, or Twitter the website
gains more logos. In constructing logical arguments and literal analogies makes the
reader decide a side on the issue.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Behavior Problems & Discipline, Peter W. D. Wright and Pamela Darr
Wright, insure that by using ethos had the reader was introduced to an expertise website,
and that I was worth listening to. Other sections of the website draws emotion from the
reader to prove a point on the harshness that a child with handicap or disabilities are
going thru. The final stage of using history, logical information, and historical cases
shows the proper way to discipline a kid.

Summative comment
I like how you wrote your pathos argument, but you could talk about it more. Then it will
be good.
In your conclusion, you used I. Since you use the I, it becomes informal. So, you
should use the third person.
Your Reference page should be in new page.
You should correct grammatical errors.
