Some people think that teenagers should follow the example of older people. Others think that it is natural for teenagers to challenge what older people say. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

These days, following parental
advice
has remained a debatable issue. Some people argue that youngsters should stick with the
advice
given by their parents, I,
however
, agree with those who are of the opinion that teenagers do their own by accepting challenges from older people. On the one hand, it is thought by some that teenagers must obey and follow their parents' footprint.
This
is because having well experienced from their mistakes throughout their lives, older people know very well which things are right and wrong to do.
Hence
, they often protect their children from bad influences.
For instance
, a recent report by the Times of India revealed that the majority of teenagers whose friends were involved in the criminal activities were saved from indulging
such
activities due to following their parental
advice
.
Although
such
advice
is of utmost importance, I believe some important decision should be taken by teenagers themselves, su
chsuch a
to so extreme a degree
such
such such
s choosing a career or a life partner.
Therefore
,
this
gives me a valid reason not to agree with
this
view.
On the other hand
, others opine that youngsters should do their own and
challenge
their parents. To elucidate, living in the technological era we have to keep our pace along with the world. Many children are forced by parents to follow their dreams which were remained to fulfil once.
However
, it is irrefutable that teenagers are versatile and mature enough to decide which realm they should opt and when to get married. If they are forced by their parents, not only will they not able to get success in their parent's dream but
also
never fulfil their desired field.
For instance
, a recent article by BBC News reported that 67% of teenagers who pursue their desired career get success owing to accepting the
challenge
from their parents.
Therefore
, I believe children ought to follow their dream and undeniably accept the
challenge
because
such
challenge
encourages them to work with whole determination. In conclusion,
although
seeking parental
advice
is fruitful for children as they remain protected from a bad influence, I believe children should adopt
challenge
given by their older people as they will be much more inclined to fulfil their dream.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
