When you say "development" paragraphs I assume you mean
the same thing as "body" paragraphs.
I'm going to encourage
you to do some brainstorming before you do
anything.
Answer the following questions to get you started
- make lists if you have to:
- What does being a
father mean to you? Are you a father? Do you have a father? Write about either. (It
would obviously be easier if you are a father - you could simply
write from experience. If you are not, write about your own father or a father-figure
in your life.) - What does a father have/do that a mother
doesn't? - What are a father's responsibilities and
why?
Hopefully these questions will spark a
long list of ideas about "being a father."
Once you've
brainstormed TONS of ideas, organize them into two or three categories. These will
become your development paragraphs. I'm not sure what your professor is asking for as
"proof" but it seems that this is a personal experience or observation type essay. I
encourage you to avoid writing in hypothetical ideas - but instead to try to tell real
life stories - yours or others.
Good
luck.
