Lord Ullin's daughter was absolutely right in her decision to defy her father. As the vendetta between her father's family and lord Ullva's family had been going on since ages; there was no scope of the families becoming united in wedding. Before Lord Ullin's daughter took this decision of eloping, she must have weighed the possible solutions to the problem. She might have even appealed to her father to ponder over the prospect of her wedding with the chieftain of Ulva clan; she might not have received an encouraging response from her mother. So she had to secure her happiness! If she delayed any further, her father could have fixed her wedding with some other chieftain. So she was absolutely right in defying her father and eloping with her lover.

Good morning, honorable judges, teachers and dear classmates. Today morning I ____________ stand here to express my views in favor of the motion 'Lord Ullin's daughter was right in her decision to defy her father. I'm a strong believer in the liberty of an individual and hence one should be free to decide about important aspects of life such as career marriage on her own.

Lord Ullin was conventional in his approach and more than the happiness of his own child, he thought about what other people and society would think of him. He considered Chief of Ulva Isle as inferior to them in status and hence marrying his daughter with him was below his dignity. It is very clear from the situations that he lived in a world of his own whims and ego. He even tries to kill Chieftain. According to me he never thought as a 'father' in this matter. More than a father, he was a Lord, who wanted to maintain his prestige at any rate, even at the cost of the life of his own daughter.

It was only in the end when he sees his daughter drowning, his heart melts and he calls his daughter back promising to forgive them. But the storm was too strong and he was left lamenting. Had he been soft and understanding with his daughter, he wouldn't have lost his daughter. I would close my argument with a question which is 'Will Lord Ullin be able to forgive himself all his life?'

Thank you
