A lot of people who wanted to become professional athletes gave up this idea because of the fear of failure and parents’ pressure. Do you think that parents should support their children who want to do a career in sports?

In sport industries
,
Accept space
,
there are a lot of potential children or teenagers who grudgingly quit their dream to be a professional due to their
parents’prejudice
Suggestion
parents’ prejudice
and
inconfidence

in confidence

From my perspective
,
Accept space
,
as parents of one
child
,
Accept space
,
they have
responsibility
Suggestion
a responsibility
the responsibility
to support their
child
to follow their favourable career
.
Accept space
.
There is a wide recognition that children with encouragement from parents are more successful than children without supporting
.
Accept space
.
The
first
explanation for
this
would be that by encouraging the kids
,
Accept space
,
they will have more motivation to their works
,
Accept space
,
and they will be able to keep training or learning conveniently with serious attitude
.
Accept space
.
For instance
, the best footballer in the world-Lionel Messi was able to keep up with his soccer career thanks to his father financial help
.
Accept space
.
Another convincing idea would be that people have different kind of intelligence
.
Accept space
.
If the biased parents force their
child
with
kinesthetic
intelligence to be a doctor or an
enginner
a person who uses scientific knowledge to solve practical problems
engineer
, it
woulld
past tense of "will"
would
be unsuitable
to
Suggestion
for
their
child
.
Accept space
.
For example
,
Accept space
,
there was a famous dancer who was a
dissapointment
a feeling of dissatisfaction that results when your expectations are not realized
disappointment
for
Suggestion
to
her parents due to bad results at school
,
Accept space
,
however
,
Accept space
,
their parents were able to discover her dancing talents and passion
,
Accept space
,
so they decided to support her to pursue her dream
.
Accept space
.
Apart from the practical benefit above
,
Accept space
,
there are still a few reasons why parents are reluctant to encourage their
child
to become a professional athlete
.
Accept space
.
Firstly
,
Accept space
,
the sport career often doesn’t
last
longer than 10 to 15 years
,
Accept space
,
so the athletes may become an
unemployee
not engaged in a gainful occupation
unemployed
after their retirement
.
Accept space
.
Secondly
,
Accept space
,
parents are protective
,
Accept space
,
so they would be aware of sport injuries that could lead their
child
to be
paralyzed
affected with paralysis
paralysed
penalized
or even die
.
Accept space
.
However
,
Accept space
,
these are just minor
occassions
something done (usually as opposed to something said)
actions
occasions
that hardly happen
.
Accept space
.
In conclusion
,
Accept space
,
I reiterate that parents should encourage their
child
if they want to be a professional sportsman
although
there are still few risks
.

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
