In some parts of the world people try to find out one's own family history. Why do people do this? Do you think it is a positive or negative? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. You should write at least 250 words.

Finding out the

history

of their own family is a kind of habit for

people

in different regions of the world.

This

may be due to various reasons and it is difficult to generalise. In my ,opinion

this

is not a good practice which may lead to a negative impact. Explorations of one's own family

history

are increased nowadays, because of a variety of motives.

Firstly

, the hobby to find out about ancestor's life is a passion for some

people

.

Moreover

, they are curious to know about previous stories like reading a fictional storybook. Whereas some of them involved in

this

type of Investigation is to learn the

history

of some diseases

such

as haemophilia, or as a part of some research studies and to discover missing families.

For example

; In

Kerala

Add a comma

,Kerala

show examples

one person found his parents after 25 years, and the family thought that he died. In

this

way,

people

are interested in working out the area of family

history

. The process of following the

history

of a family is not only time-consuming but

also

effortful. Primarily, many of them are involved in searching for family

history

due to useful reasons, while others take it as a leisure activity.

This

kind of

people

will ruin their valuable time to detect their forefathers

instead

of using their time to plan and work for the future life.

For instance

; the past is the past, and no one can change it, whereas, we can change the future with consistent work. So, running backwards is a snipe hunt. In conclusion, some

people

would like to chase the

history

of their own family with or without a valid reason. In my ,opinion if a person uses his time effectively, he can change his future life.
