Band 7

Many people leave their home country and go to other countries to live and work. Why do you think it is happening? Do the advantages of this trend outweigh its disadvantages?

Many
individuals
 go abroad and decide to stay there for many years or even in some cases permanently. Personally, I am inclined to the view that the merits of leaving the
country
 outweigh the drawbacks. People usually tend to look for better lifestyles and in many countries,
individuals
 suffer trying to feed their families with low incomes. As a consequence, they tend to leave their
country
 looking for better conditions of life and to succeed in their career.
For example
, multiples
individuals
 go every year to the USA to work and gain enough money to be able to care for their whole family. The
second
 effect is security. Some countries do not have sufficient police officers to guarantee protection for people and it increases the number of assaults and deaths.
However
, it is not easy to go legally to another
country
 and it is even difficult to have your whole family with you in another
country
. There are some difficulties to conquer the right visas for all relatives and because of it, many
individuals
 cross the borders illegally in an act of panic.
As a result
, they do not have the same rights as a native citizen has and because of it faces some problems with documents, the healthcare system and when looking for a job. In conclusion, people are leaving their
country
 due to the everyday difficulties that they lead,
such
 as lack of opportunities, insecurity and poor life’s conditions. Starting their lives in countries with better perspectives is a way of pursuing a great future for themselves and even for those relatives who have been left in their home
country
.
