Some think in today's modern world people depend on each other more. Others think the modern world is creating more independence. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
It is widely believed that people have become more reliant on others now, raising concerns about whether the modern world is creating more dependence among the public or not.
Many argue that adolescence,
for instance
, has become much more dependent on their parents in recent years when it comes to various things Linking Words
such
as borrowing a sum of money. It is often pointed out that Linking Words
this
would cause their kids to become spoilt even as adults, resulting in them becoming lazy and heavily reliant on others. Linking Words
Moreover
, due to the widespread availability of technology and other resources, it is argued that many use Linking Words
this
as a medium to exploit others for their benefit. Linking Words
Furthermore
, in the past young teenagers were expected to have families at a very young age, causing them to be more independent compared to today's generation. Linking Words
In addition
, it can Linking Words
also
be argued that back Linking Words
then
, being independent was vital for survival Linking Words
such
as in wars or simply because of how common betrayal was and its dire consequences. Linking Words
Hence
, independence was seen as the only way to prevent Linking Words
this
from happening.
Linking Words
However
, there is no denying that recent times have become more competitive than ever in terms of getting a job Linking Words
for example
or admission to a university. Linking Words
This
has led many to believe that a large portion of society has become independent to the point of isolation. Linking Words
In addition
, growing up in a tough and arguably unfair world has led to people becoming more selfish and Linking Words
consequently
, more independent. In my opinion, the phrase "every man for themselves" is more fitting now than ever.
In conclusion, I personally believe that the presence of fewer issues and the need for survival compared to the past, along with the availability of many resources has caused people to become dependent on each other more despite the increase in competition.Linking Words
