Framing Class

I thought Diana's piece was a little daunting. Her writing was very academic and centered towards a very educated audience. Although it was a well written essay with interesting information I felt like it was a little too long. As I read her essay I found that every couple of paragraphs I would ask myself how much longer I had to go. I don't know perhaps this essay was just not meant for someone of my social class.

There was a lot of good points that Kendall brought out in her essay, one of them being the affinity that children and teens have for brands. From many children in America having those eighty dollar name brand sneakers are not a want but an absolute necessity. Children today seem to be a lot more materialistic than they were twenty of thirty years ago and I think that the media has played a part in that.
