1. When Mr. Goodenwell saw his baby boy Vince for the first time, he swore that he’d do anything to protect the little guy. This

was easy at first. All Vince did was lie in a pillow and drink milk. But soon little Vince grew bigger, and then he started walking. Now little Vince got into everything. Vince’s curiosity was becoming a serious threat to himself. So Mr. Good Well went to the store and bought $150 worth of equipment to protect his home. He put covers on the outlets, bumpers on the table corners, and a sliding lock on the toilet lid. As Mr. Goodenwell was adjusting the covers on the door knobs, Vince pulled the cap off an outlet and chewed on it. It got lodged in his throat and Vince began to choke. Mr. Good well found him just in time.
What type of irony is being used in this scenario? The irony being used in this scenario is situational.
What text evidence supports your answer? “Vince pulled the cap off an outlet and chewed on it. It got lodged in his throat and Vince began to choke. Mr. Good well found him just in time.”

Would it be good or bad to stay a child forever ?
Ipatiy [6.2K]
Most people would probably say good because you would be filled with energy and youth forever but on the downside you'd also miss out on a lot of things adults get to do.


I would personally say bad because instead of being stuck in school or having to listen to your parents you could find your dream job, spend time with friends, travel, etc. You can't get a job as a child until you're 16 but you are still under your parents control. So I think that it would be bad.

How this helps! :)
