Others claim that men are just as good as women at parenting. Write an essay expressing your point of view. Give reasons for your answers and provide relevant example and experience you might have.

introduction conclusion present
The response lacks a clear introduction and conclusion which are necessary to frame the topic and summarize the main points of the discussion.
complete response
The essay does not address the given writing prompt about parenting but instead discusses a completely unrelated topic involving fast food consumption. This results in a complete failure to meet the task requirements.
clear comprehensive ideas
The essay content should directly answer the prompt. In this case, the candidate should have discussed the comparative parenting abilities of men and women, supported by relevant examples and personal experience.
supported main points
The main points about parenting abilities and related societal roles need to be clearly supported by logical reasoning or specific examples, which is missing in the essay.
logical structure
The essay needs a logical structure that clearly progresses from the introduction to body paragraphs and then to a conclusion. Each paragraph should contain a single clear idea or argument.

Fully explain your ideas
