I think that is an important part of your essay. It is easy to say "you are trampling on my rights" but if people can't say what rights they have that were trampled, it seems a little like crying "wolf".

I am sure if you are just doing it for the grade and don't really care that will reflect on your essay and in your grade. You have tapped into an interesting topic, so care, and do it for the best grade you can get.

I think if your approach is "teen rights are trampled by adults" then you are only telling half the story. But I bet your teacher would be impressed if you also had a teacher's side of the story (there are many teachers and former teachers here, including me). I think that article I posted is a good example of two sides having passionate arguments that seem right to both of them.
