Nowadays, some parents put a lot of pressure on their children. Why do parents do this? Is this a positive or negative development for the children?

#parents #pressure #children #development
Recently, it is said that
children
 are more likely to get more
pressure
 from their parents. It is believed that there are several compelling reasons to explain
this
 problem, while I am of the opinion that
this
 development could exert negative effects on the
youngsters
. In my point of view, every father/mother has a desire that their offspring would get achievements in the future
such
 as working in a large company, earning much money, living in good conditions and so on. Learning hard from a young age is probably believed to give them a chance to obtain the target.
Therefore
, the parents usually push and supervise the
children
’s schooling strictly. Another reason is that life is becoming more and more competitive, and those who could be better and more agile might take more opportunities to win. Living under high
pressure
 is likely a good way for
youngsters
 to adapt. In spite of

children

Firstly
, the
youngsters
 who are put under
pressure
 early for a long time would be stressed, which could result in severe development.
For example
, some
children
 become criminals, and someone could be crazy and try to kill themselves.
Secondly
, when the
youngsters
 concentrate on learning they would skip other activities.
As a result
, they could not grow comprehensively, lacking necessary social skills. In conclusion, while some parents have some compelling reason to put a host of
pressure
 on their offspring, I still hold my view that
this
 problem could badly affect the
children
.

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
