Some people think that keeping pets is good for children while others think it is dangerous and unhealthy. Which opinion do you agree with? Discuss both options and give examples.

While some have claimed that

pets

influence positively children, others argue that they can be hazardous and damage teenagers' health. Personally, I advocate the former that it affects positively younger ones, but

, both views of the argument will be discussed below.

To begin

with, looking after

pets

pets

enhances responsibility and improves health which assists confront sicknesses.
