To begin
with, migration is a phenomenon which can happen at any point in time or at any age and there are many reasons behind it
such
as a chance for better education, job opportunities, better standards of living, etc. Some young individuals believe it is best to leave their hometowns where they grew up. Whereas, others prefer to stay in their birthplace for their entire lives.
This
essay will attempt to look into the key factors behind these two points of view. We
first
try to explain the idea of staying in one’s hometown. According to my life experience, for most
people
, staying in their birthplace is contrary to their goals and aspirations or it is not their
first
choice . They choose to stay, due to the emotional attachment, insufficient funds and lack of information regarding immigration.
For instance
, consider those who are living with their parents; It seems hard for them to leave the nest and all the good memories that they created with close relatives.
In addition
, there is a common belief (myth) among nations that migration is not easy and convenient.
However
, there is another group of young individuals who have the opposite point of view. For those
people
who were taught since childhood that they should always stand on their own feet, moving out of their hometowns is not a big deal because they know how to control their emotions and they will stick to their goals and ambitions.
Moreover
, migration, most of the time, will open new doors to success and offer better job and education opportunities for carrier growth.
Furthermore
, new countries and cities provide the chance to meet new
people
, cultures and traditions which will expand our knowledge. To wrap it up, some
people
value staying with family and old friends in their hometowns so they always choose to remain rooted because they truly accept the fact that they belong to that place. In my opinion, there is always something unknown beyond our knowledge that we should seek.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence.
