Hi davide,
I have made some changes using capital letters:
DO YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT? CHILDHOOD IS THE HAPPIEST TIME IN A PERSON'S LIFE."
| Quote: |
It's easy to say that childhood is the happiest time in a person's life. Especially when we come back from work and we are really tired. How (to) CAN WE say the contrary? Childreen do not have responsIbilities, rents to pay or job problems and their main preoccupation during the day is how to spend their free time. Playing football or riding a bicycle? Therefore it's true: when you are a child, life is easy! However, we have to consider that childhood is also the time in a person's life (in) DURING which we have less (controll of our lifes) CONTROL OF OUR LIVES. Parents decide what kind of school you are going to (apply) ATTEND. They decide THAT you have to learn to play THE piano or THAT you have to learn to swim. They decide THAT you have to eat foods you do not like at all. And as a child IT is difficult to (contrast) OPPOSE/CONTRADICT (the) YOUR parents' decisions. "Every thing we decide is for your (healty) HEALTH", they say. Therefore being AN adult simply MEANS more responsIbilities, work, stress and worries but at the same time IT is also the period in a person's life in which we have more control of our (lifes) LIVES. ANd this is the (beatifuL) BEAUTY of being (adults). AN ADULT
Quite good
