Let us chew gum!
We should be allowed to chew gum in school!
Gum helps you focus
Studies show that chewing gum helps you focus, and chewing the same flavor gum while studying and then while taking a test helps you remember what you studied.
We won't choke!
They worry that we'll choke on gum, but how likely is that? You don't seem to care if we choke on gum at home, or during the PSSA. Besides, we're just as likely to choke on our lunch but you don't worry about that. So why isn't eating banned?
