Task 2 (Cambridge 12 Test 8 IELTS Writing)
Câu hỏi : Some people believe that allowing children to make their own choices on everyday matters (such as food, clothes, and entertainment) is likely to result in a society of individuals who only think about their own wishes. Other people believe that it is important for children to make decisions about matters that affect them. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Mở Bài
Some people opine that it is necessary to let children decide by themselves daily matters affecting them whilst others externalize that it could contribute to future society with those who only care about their wishes. While admitting the benefits of self-decision making, I tend towards the latter view.
Thân Bài 1
Justifiably, it is worthwhile being independent of others in terms of personal matters. Having autonomy in thoughts and actions may help offspring become conscious of responsibilities related to decisions they could bear. For example, should they like certain leisure activities, they will have to accept responsibility for not spending enough time on studying at school. Therefore, it helps them know how to arrange a time for doing a mixture of both. Also, being an autonomous individual partly facilitates furnishing children with the problem-solving skill for their future life as adults. When getting involved in matters affecting them, youngsters could be in the face of problems, which forces them to cope with them and find out appropriate solutions.
Thân Bài 2
However, autonomy at an early age like children has a potential risk of making them become victims of their selfishness. Indeed, the more attention they pay to personal interests including likes and dislikes, the more irrational decisions they could make in the long run. In the worst-case scenario, they might be considered to be humans who do not have care in the world in the eyes of people. Besides, one of the drawbacks of this is an attitude of indifference to virtually everything not affecting them, which makes them isolate themselves from other people in place of integrating with society. Being lacking experience because of not reaching puberty and adolescent is the main reason for that.
Kết Bài
For the aforementioned reasons, we should not let children make the decision on their own about issues affecting them. (300 words)
