Growth in the city

Today, many people say parents should raise their kids in a country. But this advice is really good? No. Children should be brought up in a city, because of these three points; the wealth of friendships, the knowledge of the risks in a city, and the good opportunity.

The first point is the wealth of friendships. Children can have more good friendships in a city then in a country. There are many problem in countries whose populations are decreasing, and one of them is the depopulation in countryside. Usually few young people live there, and there is a really small school or no school. If the family lives in a little village, it is hard for children to go to school, make friends, and play with them. On the other hand, the children who live in a city are likely to have many opportunities to make good friendships and experiences with friends. Then, in a city, there are a lot of spaces to play, for example, the shops which sell fashionable things for reasonable prises, many kind of amusement parks, and good cafes. And those places are very important for teenagers' playing. They make friendships there. However, in a country, they have no or few places to have fun for teenagers. This is why many young people who live in the country want to go out of it. For keeping your children from stress and dullness, parents should grow up them in a city.

The second point is the knowledge of the risk in the city. The risk to be suffered from bad things in a city is higher in a country's children than in a city's. Today, many young people come to a city in order to get more educations or good jobs. However, unfortunately, some of them get
involved with crime, because of their shortage of knowledge about cities. Sometimes They don't know that they must not listen to someone who speaks them in the street. However, children who live in a city have a lot of experiences to avoid the danger, because they have grown up there. Besides, newcomers from the country can be tired and anxious too much, because of being in an alien place. Then there are rooms to come into by who want to cheat them. If children will go to a city in the future, they should be raised in a city now.

The third point is the great opportunities they can get in a city. The more opportunities children have, the better for their growth. And, citis have many places to study, work and satisfy thier interests. There are famous universities, good companies, and many places to develop themselves.Of course they can suffer from the limit of money or no understanding by their families; still thay have another way. If you live in a city, you can choose what you want. Then, in cities,there is a variety of people. There is a large thinking, experience, knowledge,sense of values. The meeting with people who are not like one is a really good thing for children.

There are some opinions that say to raise children in the country for the reason still. They claim that is the good relationship. According to their opinions, people in the country are more friendly and kind than people in the city and they can have better effects of children’s growth at the society communication ability. However, this opinion is not true, because children need not only the opportunity to toke with the older people but also that to meet other children who are similar age. And in the country, they have less such opportunities than in the big cities. That is to say, it is better that raise their children in the city.

In conclusion, parents had better make decision to raise their children in the city. For their good future, less stressful and safety lives, city life is necessary. The country is just for vacation or living by older people. However, it is true that the fee for renting or buying the house in the city is really heavy for the young family, and they should start to save money for that purpose.
