Some people think that government is responsible for the rise in obesity in children. Do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

In developed countries, a vast market is overwhelmed with variety and amount of products. As children there almost don't really know what the lack of food means, they sometimes have a
problem
with control of their weight. It is often suggested that politics has to deal with
this
issue.
Nevertheless
, I absolutely agree with that point of view, as I believe, that it is a significant
problem
for our society, which could be easily solved only by the government.
First
of all, the main reason for obesity in kids is their lifestyle. As online gaming is more in demand than playing sports, kids and teenagers spend presently a huge part of their life sitting in front of the computer. Unless each person chose his lifestyle according to his own mindset,
this
problem
can be solved in general, because all of us are easily influenced by general trends.
For instance
, take me as an example, I really hate sports, but when I knew that fitness was becoming more and more popular among my classmates, I started to visit fitness studios daily. Currently, there are not a lot of places for children's sports and
that is
the failure of the government. If sport will be in demand again, the
problem
of children's overweight will be solved in a maximum of two months. Another significant reason, why exactly politics are responsible for
this
issue, is the protection of public health services in the long run. If human obesity tends to increase over the
next
years, it will affect the number of people, who need help for their health so that
this
number will rise.
That is
because obesity can lead to other problems with health. In conclusion, it is clear that the government are exactly the people, who are forced to solve the
problem
of overweight among kids, to avoid its negative consequences.

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
