Room 8 researched, discussed and wrote a persuasive argument about the statement above.I strongly agree that all children should wear sun hats and sunblock for the following reasons...
Firstly, the most important reason is that a lot of people have got burnt because they haven't been putting on sun block. Sun burn can lead to melanoma (skin cancer). Even if it's a cloudy day, there's still a high chance of you getting sun burn.
Secondly, it's really good to have a wide brimmed hat and also sunblock; especially in New Zealand because there are more people who have melanoma in New Zealand than Australia. There are more people who die from melanoma than in car crashes. In fact the statistics are twice as much. Sunblock as well as sun hats are not the only blocks of UV rays. There's also long sleeve tops and the shade.
On the other hand, some people are allergic to different types of sunblock, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't wear it at all. So if you are, then try to bring some from home. I say, "there's no point in damaging your skin, if you know how to stop sun burn."
These are my reasons why I believe that children should wear sunblock and sunhats. "It's for your safety."
