#topic #children #countryside #city
Some people think
children
 should grow up in the
countryside
 because
children
 can enjoy a memorable childhood in the
countryside
 that a big
city
 cannot provide.
However
, I prefer to choose
children
 should grow up in a big
city
. A big
city
 will take
children
 too many important things , rather than
children
 just have fun in the
countryside
.
First
 of all , I think the best important point is education. As well known, if a child wants to get a good educational resource,it is very important to take education in a big
city
. Big cities always have high-quality teachers , various famous schools for
children
 to choose from and a good study environment.
Secondly
, the
countryside
 may not only haven't enough hospitals but
also
 there's the quality of doctors are lower than in cities. Obviously , many
children
 get sickness always be taken to
city
's hospital due to country's hospital can't handle it. In fact , some people will disagree with my opinion because they think a child's serious commission is having a good time in their childhood rather than study hard. To be honesty, modern family's
children
 always follow high competition after they

Add a missing verb

. If you never impose on your
children
 some pressure,your child may become the only loser in a remarkable group of lots of
children
. To conclude,
children
 who grow up in the
city
 will definitely be accompanied by a lot of drawbacks.
However
 , they can gain a more important resource that the
countryside

 have. If you want to you
children
 can get more opportunity to become a successful person, the big
city
 is the Irreplaceable choice.
