In recent years families last their emotional connection with each other. This essay will discuss the main reasons of this relationships among families and propose possible solutions to decrease the number of such families. One of the main reasons for such bad relationships is a lack of interest to children from their parents.

Despite the fact that it is widely known that people doesn’t get along or communicate with others make them unfit and unhappy, thereby causing a disease such as depression, having said that, older people tend to stay alone nowadays.

The widely trends of older people tend to stay alone instead of communicating or hanging out with others makes them staying at home and never talking with somebody all day.

Some people believe that we cannot learn anything from the past for our life today, while others believe that history is a valuable source of information to understand human's life.

People have different views about whether we can learn something from the past. There are various reasons why we cannot learn anything from history, however, in my opinion, I totally agree with the idea that we should treat history as a treasure to be a valuable experiences for our modern life. Admittedly, some people would believe they can gain nothing from the past for some reasons. It is true that the life we live in has a different pattern compared to ancient times, with the development of various technologies and the reform of the fabric of society. Therefore, we are not supposed to use the same solutions as before to cope with these new issues nowadays, like environment pollution, which never happened before. Also, if we want to make progress for our today’s lives, we must continue to develop new ideas when we face the problems rather than copying some from history. However, I would argue that we can and we should absorb some experiences from history, b...
