#children #opportunity #decisions #age
Living in the 21st century has made it imperative for children to be given the
liberty
 to live freely and make life choices at an early age. From my perspective, I partly agree due to the following reasons that will be discussed in
this
 essay.
Firstly
,

liberty
 offers them the opportunity to build a pool of experience from which they can draw from in later years to solve future problems.

aluable experience which can be used in the future thereby making them better equipped for the future. The experiences become a form of currency that they are able to amass early by virtue of the

 they were offered at an early age.
Secondly

 in turn leads to job satisfaction which transcends to a happy individual.
Conversely
