it's better for students to live away from home during their university studies rather than stay with their parents. To what extent do you agree or disagree

Some people assert that relocation by

students

away from their parent's house during their undergraduate

studies

is a laudable idea. I partially agree with

this

viewpoint and the rationale behind my stance will be elaborated on in the subsequent paragraphs.

To begin

with, when

students

live away from

home

during university, they are exposed to bad company. Mostly, many of these mingle with wayward colleagues from school, and the gullible ones get influenced easily

as a result

of lack of parental control which in turns corrupts their good upbringing. A good example can be seen when we consider the huge number of well-mannered children who have abruptly turned notorious

due to

this

decision. Many of them now are ex-convicts leading to the destruction of their dreams.

However

, there are some merits to

this

assertion. One of them that cannot be overlooked is gaining the maximum concentration needed for

studies

. Moving away from

home

during university education enables a shift from a chaotic environment back

home

to a new serene environment

that is

conducive to

studies

. A report from a survey by a renowned researcher in Ghana upon probing into the unprecedented success chalked by the

students

from the University of Ghana in their final year exam indicates that the undergraduates who relocated from unpeaceful

home

environments to the campus contributed to the highest percentage of learners who graduated with a first class. In conclusion, some people opine

that is

it better for

students

to move out of their family houses to live on their own during schooling. I partially agree with

this

viewpoint because even though, it enables the

students

to have maximum concentration on their

studies

,

however

, it can

also

expose them to the bad influences outside.
