aspects, both

have merits and drawbacks, but personally, I believe that living in the

is a better choice for several reasons.

First

of all, let us take a look at some pros of living in the country. These days, the pollution has been increased in industrial zones. Children deserve to live in a healthy environment, not a place with polluted air caused by a huge amount of emission from vehicles, factories…

Hence

, when it comes to health, it is understandable that parents want their children to live here.

Furthermore

, children in the

countryside

have a better social life because they spend more time socializing with other children in the neighbourhood. What is more, they get more real experiences from their everyday life than those who live in town. It is undeniable that children in the

depend too much on their parents and have almost no basic skill. Another point worth noticing is safety, there are few vehicles in the

so there are fewer traffic accidents.

For instance

, which never happens in the cities. On top of that, technology has been being developed these days, which means children can learn at home by self-study, search information for school purposes and hi-tech equipments are used at school.

Therefore

Last

but not least, a big

always includes companies, factories which provide more jobs and help children to have a better career, success and be prosperous in the future. In conclusion, despite the polluted environment, there are plenty of hospitals with modern facilities in the
