Ex: Some may say the military draft will discourage Congress from declaring war since their own kids might be drafted. However, this is not true. When has anyone with unlimited money (troops) ever held back on spending (sending troops off to war)? The government will just take this chance at unlimited troops to declare war.

RE:
How do you write a rebuttal paragraph in a persuasive essay?

You’d put the words into somebody else’s mouth, by saying, “some people say…” or “people might object that…” or “others might argue…” For example: “Some proponents of early curfews argue that keeping teens off the streets decreases street crime. Other people say that it keeps teens safe to have them indoors at night. One could also argue that an early curfew encourages teenagers to spend time with their families and to do homework or chores at home.” Be sure to follow your counter-argument paragraph with a rebuttal, otherwise your persuasive essay might persuade others to disagree with you! So follow that up by saying: “But it is unfair and false to say that teenagers cause the preponderance of street crime. This argument is even less compelling when we are talking about My City, which has a very low crime rate in the first place. For the same reason, it is disingenuous to talk about wanting to keep teenagers safe; there is little evidence to suggest that teenagers who are out at 7 pm are particularly unsafe. And though it may be a good idea to have young adults spend time in the company of their parents, it is up to the parents and the teenagers to work out what is a reasonable time to be home. Similarly, the government should not make laws about what people do in their own homes behind closed doors – whether this is homework, family time, or simply playing video games. These are decisions best left to parents.” Or whatever – you get the idea. Write a counter-argument paragraph, but then make sure you explain why those counter-arguments are not good enough for you. Good luck.
