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 with this opinion.

Although

Accordingly

Task Achievement
For task achievement, ensure your essay directly addresses all parts of the task statement. While you've made an effort to discuss the role of both parents in the upbringing of children, incorporating specific examples and further elaborating on how societal changes impact child-rearing would strengthen your argument.
Coherence Cohesion
To improve coherence and cohesion, focus on creating smoother transitions between paragraphs. Use a wider range of linking words and phrases to strengthen the connections between your ideas. This will make your essay more cohesive and easier to follow.
Coherence Cohesion
Regarding coherence and cohesion, work on developing your main points with more detailed examples and explanations. While your essay has a logical structure, further elaboration on your points with specific examples will make your arguments more persuasive and your essay more cohesive.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
