English speech
I have a creative English speech based on the theme growing up and having to make tough choices in life. I have this idea: to have a shoulder angel and devil who argue about a a certain topic that would happen inside a growing up kid's mind. I need an idea for this topic/issue. It needs to go for 4 min.
I would like more ideas than the cliche stuff like bullying, drugs, smoking etc. if possible. But if you mention those sort of ideas can you go into more detail on what I'd say for a whole 4min.

- The idea is to identify with the angel and ignore the parrot As you may know, there is also a Wiki page about this device in fiction ...
