Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this practice and give your own opinion.
In many countries, parents often provide their children with an allowance. Although this custom can be problematic in some cases, I believe that the potential benefits of financial maturity outweigh these drawbacks.
To begin with the challenges, the most worrying aspect of giving children pocket money is that it can engender a sense of entitlement. In other words, it may cause them to believe they deserve financial rewards without effort. For instance, a child who receives money on an unqualified basis might become a spoilt and dependent adolescent. Another concern is that an allowance can prevent children from developing fiscal responsibility. Consequently, they could grow up to become financially unstable adults because they would have become used to receiving money regardless of their efforts.
However, these negatives can be outweighed by the positives of pocket money, so long as appropriate conditions are put in place. Firstly, requiring children to work for their allowance, such as through household chores, should encourage them to appreciate the value of money. This is because they will be less likely to squander their allowance after having worked hard to earn it. Secondly, children who are financially rewarded for their efforts can develop new skills related to money management. If, in contrast, a teenager is never given pocket money, their ability to manage their finances in adulthood might be compromised by their inexperience in such matters.
In conclusion, despite the entitlement and irresponsibleness which an unconditional allowance might bring about in young people, my view is that pocket money with boundaries can promote economic responsibility.


The internet has transformed the way information is shared and consumed, but it has also created problems that did not exist before.
What are the most serious problems associated with the internet and what solutions can you suggest?
It is clear that the invention of the internet has led to dramatic changes in the way information is distributed and accessed. This essay will explore two of the problems which have resulted from these changes and propose measures which might address them.
One concern in terms of sharing information is that private data may now be more vulnerable to theft. This is because information is increasingly stored electronically rather than physically, which means that it can be stolen by any hacker who infiltrates a website. Consequently, more news stories in today’s media relate to online security breaches than to physical robberies. To tackle this issue, companies which handle sensitive information must be legally required to install the strictest anti-hacking programs available. This should result in the protection of such information from cyber criminals.
Turning to the consumption of information, one pressing problem is that much of what we read online is not true. Whereas in the past we mostly read news articles in established newspapers, nowadays, anyone can publish information on a blog or forum without having it verified. If those who read such falsehoods accept them as truths, they might spread this information further on social media, in turn misinforming the public. This problem could be mitigated by requiring social network websites to hire fact-checkers, whose job would be to check the validity of any news article before it is shared online.
In conclusion, two of the main information-related concerns that the internet age has created are the vulnerability of data and the proliferation of fake news. However, these problems can be managed via the law-enforced installation of cutting-edge security software and recruitment of social network fact-checkers.
