In some areas of the US, a ‘curfew’ is imposed, in which teenagers are not allowed to be out of doors after a particular time at night until they are accompanied by an adult while others believe that teenagers should be given the freedom to move. Discuss both sides and give your own opinion.

In some parts of the United States teenagers are prevent to go outside, unless they are accompanied by adults. Some
people
 believe it is a good move, while others believe it is a restriction on their freedom.
This
 essay will discuss both viewpoints in detail and give reasons to support my opinion.
To begin
 with,
firstly
, the
age
 from 13 to 19 is an
age
 where kids want to prove themselves to their parents. While they think they have knowledge of everything, in reality, they don't know much about the outside world.
In addition
, it is the
age
 that decides their future. So it is very important to care for them very carefully.
Moreover
, during the late-night,night all evil things happened on the streets like consumption of drugs, local gang fight, supply of pistols and other dangerous weapons. They can easily come under the trap of these hazardous activities. To illustrate, recently in Canada, one teenage boy under the influence of a local gangster shoots 17 innocent
people
 at school. So it is the utmost responsibility of parents to take care of them and keep watch on them.
Furthermore
, it will be easy for parents when they are supported by the government.
On the other hand
, there are
people
 who believe, it will ruin the personality of teenagers. Even though they have not attended the
age
 of maturity, still they have the right to go around freely whenever they want without putting any restrictions. Apart from
this
, it is
also
 believed that
this
 is a period of their personality development
,

show examples
 since they get exposure to the outside world. When they go outside at night, they deal and talk with different kinds of
people
 that give them confidence and groom their overall development.
For example
, one of friend's son, who frequently go outside late at night and he is very bold enough to talk with
people
 confidently. To conclude,
although
 there are supporting ideas for both the viewpoints,
however
, as per my opinion, putting restrictions on their freedom is much better than giving them the scope to enter into terrible activities.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
