TOEFL writing practice : ) 20220626 Topic: Some yound adults want independence from their parents as soon as possible. Other yound adults prefer to live with their families for a longer time. Which of these situations do you think is better? My answer: In my opinion, I would prefer being with my families for a longer time as possible. There are several reasons to state so. Whern you live with your family, until becoming adults, you are always going to be observed by your families and you should hear opinions of them to make decisions. For example, if your parents want you to become a lowyer but you have another dream to persue, you will always hear or feel their expectations. It surely will affect your mind and perhaps can lead to decide not chasing your dream anymore. Living alone can also solve social issues as people expect. For instance, it can be imagined that there would not be enough time for their family relationship.However, people can always go back to where their parents live on weekends, as an example to see and have more time. Overall, there is no need to live with their families for a longer time to be independent and living alone can help achieve those two objectives of having time for their family and their own time. We also have to consider that young adults are not the only people who are willing to be isolated to their family. Parents who have raised their sons seldome have time for their own until when their children live alone. They understand that there is no need to care their sons anymore in their heads when grown, nevertheless as their customs they try to help children when they would like to have meal or financial supports and those are not a real issue for themselves. Therefore, it would be even better for parents themselves.
