The position of women in society has changed markedly in the last twenty years. Many of the problems young people now experience, such as juvenile delinquency, arise from the fact that many married women now work and are not at home to care for their children. to what extent do you agree or disagree ?
In the last two decades, the societal position of women has changed significantly. Some believe this to be the reason behind problems like minor crimes, as married women work and are not at home to look after their children all the time. I strongly disagree with this because a child's upbringing is a combined effort and dependent on many environmental and cultural factors.

While numerous individuals opine that improvement of the transport system is crucial for society, there is another opinion that it is better to invest in the development of other spheres. I partially agree with the first idea. In this essay, I plan to explain my point of view and substantiate it with a few examples.

Nowadays, a climate change issue has been determined as a paramount challenge, which relates to the environmental deterioration coming about in all nations around the world. Consequently, a superb seminar about it is frequently going to be carried out that tends to solve the formidable problem. My take on this, I partially see eye to eye with the statement due to no effort after that.

Some people argue that if children behave badly, their parents should accept responsibility and also be punished for the behavior of their children. Do you agree or disagree with the statement?
Growing interest in children’s behaviour has been highlighted over the past decades.
