Dear Mary, I was glad to hear back from you. It’s nice to hear that you and your family have been safe and maintaining social distancing during the pandemic. During

this

pandemic, I recommend these two websites to update you about the things that are happening in the world. My recommendation for the website mainly depends on international or domestic

news

. If you are looking for something specific about our country, Nepal,

then

I would suggest ekantipur.com.

However

, if you are looking for trending international

news

, I recommend either bbc.co.uk or cnn.com. The reason I am recommending these websites is because of

Some people believe that students should be required to wear uniforms in school, while others argue that uniforms restrict individuality and self-expression. What is your opinion?
Some people argue that school uniforms should be mandatory for students whereas, others say that it limits their ability to express themselves and restricts their self-confidence. I believe that while uniforms promote a sense of equality and team spirit, it is important to consider aspects like ensuring students have bodily autonomy to flourish in their future endeavours since this may impact their personal and professional development adversely.
