Bring(ing) up a child is not something which (can) be done easily.
For parents, children need to learn so many things including technology, nature, sport and the like. Considering all the necessities in raising a child it is not easy to answer the question of whether to (bring) up a child in a city or in a village. The two alternatives have their own advantages and disadvantages however, (in) my opinion, to grow up in a city would (be) the right choice for a child.
I believe this as we live in such a(n) electronic and communication (oriented) age that requires so many skills to use in a daily life if someone choose(s) to compete with their rivals. One can claim that children can (gain this) necessary education in the (country-side) as well, but considering that these kinds of technologies require more infrastructure investments and cities get more compar(ed) to villages, we (could easily) draw a conclusion that cities can offer more opportunities than villages in terms of education, sport(s) facilities and to learn, for example, modern utilities such as exhibition centers and conference halls.
However children who (have) grown up in cities have some advantages over those who are born in villages. (V)illage children have (far better) chances to learn (about) nature (more) than city children. Besides this basic instruction, village children are always close to the soil and know well how to cultivate a field, plant the seed.
These are not (things) to be ignored, but considering that we are currently living in such an age that requires more abilities of being familiar technology and city concept(s) than it was before, raising a (child) in a city would (be) (beneficial) for (both)parents and children . I believe that for many reasons.
Delineating why I believe this, giving two specific examples could be a factor to shore up my idea. First, city dwellers have more income and this endangers more opportunity to have some electronic devices as well as communication gadgets with advanced technology. Having (been raised) in such a well equipped and prosper(ous) family, a child is familiar with how to behave and act (with) such devices, including learning their proper usages.
(Contrary to) this, a village child can only (have) the chance to get to know them in his/her older age and this (can) cause a gap between a city young(ster) and a villager. The second is much more than a necessity, taking into account living in a city requires some social habits and communication skill(s) in a kind manner.
Of course these can be obtained in later ages for someone but, the question will (always be) ; are these (two) different cases equal or not? In other words, can the latter (be) substitute(d) for the first(?)
To epitomize, growing up in city would (be more beneficial) for parents and children than raising a child in a village or a place located in the (country-side.)
