At the present time, the population of some countries includes a relatively large number of young adults, compared with the number of older people. Do the advantages of this situation outweigh the disadvantages?
Nowadays, a vast
number
of countries have been facing overpopulation. There is no doubt all groups of ages can play a vital role in building a county. Some people
believe that increasing the number
of young people
is more effective than elderly ones
. This
essay will explore both opinions and express negative and positive sides.
First
of all, the youth are better workforces than the old ones
. In this
regard, they are willing to undertake great responsibilities due to the fact that they have enough motivation to be successful in their career. They can also
deal with working hard and be an upstanding member of the company working at. Secondly
and more importantly, youngsters are more updated as opposed to older adults. As a result
of advancement in science, for instance
, widespread using the Internet can be seen in many countries and, in return, people
can use it in the way they want to increase their knowledge
. In fact, in this
way, for instance
, from an economical point of view, young ones
can improve their knowledge
so as to boost the efficiency of the products for exporting and therefore
, the countries economics will be developed.
However
, on the other hand
, older people
have been more experienced than young ones
, and indeed they would be good assets for every country. However
, from my viewpoint, they are more likely to find it difficult to use new technologies in order to gain new knowledge
. Therefore
, their knowledge
would be outdated and inefficient if they were unable to be updated.
In conclusion, both age groups are essential for having a productive nation. However
, I believe that a large number
of young adults compared to the number
of elderly people
might have some drawbacks, the merits are far more.Submitted by armaghan.khosravi on
