In some countries, more and more adults continue to live with their parents even after completing their education and finding jobs. Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?

The fact that in many countries grown people live with their
parents
even though they are well-educated and employed, is true.
This
trend has both positive and negative stereotypes which will be enlightened in
this
essay. On the one hand, living in a multigenerational setting generates win-win benefits for both
parents
and their offspring.
Firstly
, because
parents
are weak and most prone to certain kinds of illnesses in their retirement age, their
children
might assist them with daily personal care, especially when they are ill. When it comes to their
children
, they can save their money for
further
bigger plans
such
as buying their own houses or launching their own businesses as they no longer pay monthly rent.
Furthermore
, living with
parents
also
gives the opportunity to dwell in a calming and relaxing environment surrounded by caring
parents
who can share their life experiences with them.
Hence
, the advantages of living in a multigenerational dwelling are countless.
On the other hand
, the negatives of
this
trend
also
should not be ignored. The
first
disadvantage of it is that the young generation hardly can host parties with their friends and colleagues because the older generation might have less tolerance towards noisy parties. Another negative aspect is that it might be a burden for
parents
as they have to support financially not only themselves but
also
the family of their
children
. The other downside is that there might be tensions and arguments among them due to the generation gap which might be potentially stressful and lead to some heart and vessel diseases in old people
such
as stroke and heart attack.
Therefore
, there are certain kinds of drawbacks of living with
parents
with their grown
children
which are unable to be eliminated. In conclusion, having considered all, I strongly believe the positivities of living two age generations together outweigh the negativities.

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 โ€“ 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
