Bob's feedback:

"It's interesting to see how you weigh the different influences on teenagers' behavior and choices. You make some compelling arguments, but these arguments often seem to be at odds with one another and are not strongly supported. While you provide sources for many of your claims, you do not always provide sound reasoning for these claims in your essay, instead relying on your reader to either trust or investigate your sources.

You seem to contradict yourself in your introduction by both claiming that the effect of advertising is overrated and that increased advertising allows for increased manipulation. It isn't until the second page that your stance becomes clear, and by then, you've presented arguments that may well steer your reader in the opposite direction.

Focus on clearly stating your own stance. It is, of course, important to address counter-arguments, but make sure that you make it clear when you are addressing these and that you offer your refutation to each one."
