Some people think money is the best gift to give youngsters, while others disagree. Discuss both views and give your opinion

These days, gifts are common and they are usually appreciated by the recipients. Some people believe that

money

is the best

gift

for the youth while others argue that financial aids towards

education

or vocational skills acquisition are the most important gifts to youngsters. I support

this

latter view. On the one hand, monetary

gift

often makes youngsters excited and happy.

This

is because they will be able to finance their immediate needs since they are usually unemployed and they want to be equal in the lifestyle of their associates and those portray in the media.

For instance

, many youths want the latest designer clothes and mobile devices,

thus

, they can be easily influenced by their peers who desire similar items to be involved in crime.

However

, if these ones receive

money

as a

gift

, they will be able to meet their needs without being involved in crime and if they are well guided, they can even use the

money

to start a business or to pay their tuition while in college.

On the other hand

, some people are of the view that providing quality

education

or vocational skills is the best

gift

for teenagers.

This

is because

education

and technical skills, prepare teenagers for the future while increasing their chance of being employed in a competitive world and becoming self sufficient.

For example

, a youngster who receives a financial grant while in the medical school, will be focused with the least worries during the course of her training. When she becomes a medical doctor, she will be gainfully employed where she able to afford her materialistic needs and desires, and she can even provide financial assistants to young ones who are in need.

Therefore

, I agree with

this

viewpoint. In conclusion, even though, the

money

would help the youths meet their immediate needs, I believe that in the long-run, technical and educational grants are the best gifts.

Therefore

, contributions toward financing youngsters'

education

and knowledge acquisition should be encouraged.
