The role of children in community and household has shifted greatly.Some of them thinks that low tier of accountability is advantageous to development of a kid.While,others argue that it indeed distort conducts and attitudes among young generation.This essay will demonstrates various viewpoints and real experiences based on outlook.

The prevalence of little responsibilty on children has some perks which are appreciates by mothers and fathers.In the past,a kid had any duties in front of society such as herd the sheep and many physical house works.But,they are a few commitment to fulfill tasks.The parents emphasizes that our children have a lot of free time to engage education and career.Because now,make a successful future is a actual topic among parents who interes with their youth’s welfare.For instance,Ministry of Science and Education Republic of Azerbaijan has published a journal in 2019 which is talked about 45% adults worrried the children academical life.

On the other hand,some people believe that the lack of responsibilities can make children less independent in society.They already rely on parent care so teenagers may lose their abilities like completing a complex task and obligation.Hence,each teacher at school and leader in organization see parents as guilty.For instance,the Microsoft which is one of the most popular companies always criticizes "the right attitudes in survival environment come from family factor".Furthermore,the responsibility consists of an interest and a plan.According to adults,if children lose their interests on something,they would lose to compile the plan accyrately.To illustrate this,l have lost my responsibility on entering university at covid-19 in 2020,then l approxiamently tried a lot to restore it again.

İn conclusion,the lose of responsibility may brings self-development and more flexible time among teenagers.However,it has some disadvantages such as decreasing a freedom and commitment.From my perspective,each young generation individual should consider his behaviour in advance

Assessment summary

The essay addresses both views regarding children's responsibilities and gives a personal opinion, but it suffers from severe grammatical inaccuracies, frequent awkward word choices, punctuation lapses, and weak lexical range. Coherence is hindered by awkward transitions, and task response is limited by underdeveloped reasoning and non-standard illustrative examples.

Scoring criteria

Strengths

  • Some complex clause structures are attempted using relative pronouns and subordinate conjunctions.

Weaknesses

  • Pervasive subject-verb agreement errors ('Some of them thinks', 'The parents emphasizes').
  • Frequent tense control issues, fragment sentences, and missing or misplaced punctuation/spacing (e.g., missing spaces after commas and periods throughout).

Justification

Grammar and punctuation errors are dense and frequent across simple and complex sentences, heavily impeding readability and resulting in a Band 4.0.
