What Makes a ‘Good’ Argument in Everyday Life?

A good argument is like a strong building, it has clear pieces that fit together well. If someone says, 'I like ice cream because it’s tasty,' that's a simple and good argument. But if they say, 'I like ice cream because the moon is made of cheese,' that's not so good. A good argument uses facts or reasons people can believe.
