For ethos: But, I am very mature for my age & Ive been doing everything I am supposed to. I come home on time for curfew, etc. Pathos: I have been trying so hard to prove to you that I can handle a Facebook. Ive been trying to hard & I feel like I haven't tried hard enough. Logos: It is shown, that at my age, there are 25% of Facebook users, that with supervision, they continue on with their regular schedule.

Answer:

USE OF PATHOS: Aunt, if you set up a Facbook account, you will be more connected to your loved ones that live far away, with Facbook you will never miss any important moments of their lives. Can you imagine missing the wedding photos of that niece of yours that will marry next month? She lives too far away, but with Facbook you can see her wedding and send her good wishes to her. <u>But wouldn't it make you sad if you lost the opportunity to share that moment with her online?</u>

Explanation:

Pathos is as a mode of persuasion that aims to convince someone on something by appealing to people's emotion, usually by evoking emotions of pity, fear, sympathy, or sorrow. This rhetorical appeal is the one being used in the answer I gave. In the statement, I am trying to convince my aunt to set up a Facbook account by appealing to her emotions of sadness and regret: If she doesn't open a Facbook account, she will miss all the important events of her loved ones, even her niece's wedding! Wouldn't that be sad?
