Question
Analyze the validity of the following argument:
Sally argues, "Mom, your rules are way too strict! Melissa's mother lets her stay out until 2:00 AM on weekends. Peter's parents let him go to all-night raves even on school nights. Tom's parents don't even give him a curfew! Nobody in the whole school has curfews as strict as yours!"
Thank you!

That's what I'd say, too, if my daughter made that argument. BUT, do YOU think Sally's argument is a good one or not, and if so, why?
