The diagram illustrates the multitude of steps olive oil undergoes before being produced. Overall, there are 7 steps olive oil goes through before being packaged then released into the marketplace. The first station is far from the industrial environment and consist on picking the olives from their trees. Second step is to rinse the product with cold water before pushing it in a belt, directly relied to a smashing machine. Thanks to the previous appliance, the olive paste is isolated from the olive stones, which are undesirable for olive oil manufacturing. Afterwards, the pressing moment comes. Indeed, the latter is put in a bag with holes so it can be crushed with a convenient pressing machine. The mixture is then crafted to separate the oil from the water.

Expenses are increasing day by day for all kind of human requirements like food, accommodation and children education, etc. and living standard is improving due to various technological innovations. So, it has become common for many families to have both parents working. There are two kinds of families having working parents nowadays. Some may choose for having a better life and to make their future financially secured, while another chooses because of their financial needs. Recently, from the last decade women empowerment has seen a significant improvement. So, Women are sharing equal responsibilities with men in all professions.I believe that families having both working parents have edge over others in a financial perspective. But its impact on children must be recognized first. In families, when parents go to work, children are left at home alone. Some people argue that children become independent and they learn how to manage their selves. In addition, they believe that children who grow up having the support of their relatives in the family make them more social and kind.On the contrary, other believe that both working parents do not give enough attention to children’s development. Thus, children become undisciplined and may go out of hand sometimes. According to them, if one of the parents is earning enough money, then another should concentrate on children’s development. Money is not a serious matter always. Parents should not become too greedy.There are many examples of both working parents from my friend circle. They are good parents and understand their responsibilities towards their children. So, as a conclusion, I will say it depends on the way of thinking of individuals and the way of interacting with their kids. One should identify own situation and requirements and act accordingly.
