Framing the Issue
It is important to know that there are at least two sides to every issue. Each side (opinion) should be based on facts that are supported with convincing, reasonable evidence that is credible and current. Before you form an opinion, consider the pros and cons of the issue. Doing this can strengthen your position on the issue—or it can result in a change of opinion on the issue.
