1. When Jacoby means when she is a "First Amendment junkie", she means that she can't have too much of the First Amendment 2. Yes this paragraph is connected to Jacoby's overall argument because it emphasis that it is up to the parents to teach young people not to equate sex with violence, and not blame institutions.

3. I think the final paragraph is a good paragraph because it is very effective. Because it makes the reader feel that the essay has come to an end and it also makes the reader think about what you have been talking.
