task response
The essay partially addresses the prompt by discussing the reasons for the change in young adults' social behavior. However, the explanation lacks depth and fails to thoroughly examine the impact of parents' busy schedules on children's preference for spending time with friends rather than family.
coherence cohesion
The essay includes an introduction and a conclusion, but the body paragraphs lack clear organization and coherence. The points are not well connected, leading to a disjointed flow of ideas. Ensure that each paragraph introduces a clear topic, uses appropriate transitions, and maintains a logical sequence of ideas.
