Gum Chewing

Gum chewing Do you ever have bad breath and wish for some gum. Im sorry but at TJMS chewing gum is forbidden. If a student chooses to chew gum, if they are caught they will suffer detention. I don’t agree with this rule. I wish for this rule to be changed. One reason to allow gum is that it gives you a minty, fresh breath. After lunch the kid’s breath is disgusting. I would know I’ve experienced it myself. If gum was allowed they could pop in a piece quickly and there mouth would smell fantastic. Also It makes you more attractive. It is logic if you have a good smelling mouth people would want to be by you. If you have a bad smelling mouth the opposite will happen. These are some reasons that’s should make Mrs. Emden allow gum. Next reason is that it helps you keep your teeth healthy. One way is that it makes your teeth whiter. In the morning when you brush your teeth it honestly doesn’t make your teeth bright and white. When you get to school you can just chew gum which will make your teeth white. It also makes your teeth stronger. Some gum has minerals that go to your gum and make it tight, and sturdy. It also tastes great. Okay if you are not impressed I have another reason for you. Gum also helps you concentrate. If you have a test or a quiz coming up and for whatever reason you can’t focus well then chew some gum and watch it help you. I know it sounds weird, but it’s the truth. Its also a bit fun. I mean how are you not going to tell me that you don’t enjoy having your teeth cleaned, able to concentrate, and smell good. Its impossible !!! This is why I think gum chewing is important at TJMS. Mrs. Emden should allow gum. Someone should go to her and tell her these reasons. At first gum chewing will sound bad then it will be wonderful.
