In some areas of the US, a 'curfew' is imposed, in which teenagers are not allowed to be out of doors after a particular time at night unless they are accompanied by an adult. What is your opinion about this?

In the

last

30 years, there has been a great change in both social and economic systems that were immensely influenced by the technological revolution in

Accordingly

, one of the most obvious changes, is the shift of our mindsets towards the thought of curfew. As curfew involves limiting teenagers from being out of doors after a particular time,

this

Although

more efficient advices from our side. As a matter of fact, twenty years ago, my parents have imposed a curfew on me, as I was allowed to stay out of doors till 9:30 pm.

has greatly influenced my character and inner security.
