Giving gifts is
one
 major way humans appreciate
one
 another. It is thought by some that monetary gifts are the best for young adults, others believe that there are other ways to
reward
 them. In my opinion, I believe that these children can be duly appreciated with other forms of
gift
. On the
one
 hand, some people think that because
money
 is more valuable, it should be the most suitable
reward
 for children. To put in another way, young adults these days have an endless list of wants and needs, any opportunity they have to receive a
gift
 they would prefer
money
 since they can use it for whatever they desire or have been saving for.
Moreover
, if a youngster
is given

gives
 a
gift
that is
 not monetary, it might be useless, especially if the items are something they do not find fascinating.
For example
, during recent research conducted by Cambridge College, students were asked if they preferred
money
 or receiving other forms of
gift
. 70 per cent went for
money
 because of the countless things they would be able to purchase with it.
On the other hand
, it is thought by some that in order to prevent greed, other forms of
gift
 should be given and I agree.
This
 is because if a child is constantly rewarded for hard work with cash all the time, a day when the giver does not have
this
 form of appreciation, the child may out of being
greedy resort
Suggestion
a greedy resort
 to illegal means to get
money
. In order to prevent
this
, other forms of gifts like giving the young
one
 a new phone, or a trip to his favourite fun spot should be encouraged. In conclusion, a child may be availed different opportunities when given a monetary
reward
; in my opinion, I believe that in order to prevent crimes being committed by the youngster other forms of
reward
 should be accorded.
