Q. Some commentators feel that grandparents should live together with their children and grandchildren, while others say that older people should be encouraged to live independently. Consider the possible arguments on both sides of this debate, and reach your own conclusion.
Student’s Plan:
Essay type: Opinion (Discussion)
Intro: traditional vs affordable debate
For living with family:
1 Traditional: More emotional support, eg in bereavement
2 More security (against crime and accidents)
3 Cheaper, may increase quality of life
For living independently:
1 Increases self-reliance and independence, self-esteem
2 Family may not have space or time
3 Allows grandparents to have families visiting them, enjoyment
Conclusion: Better to live alone, provided that health/finances allow this
