IELTS WRITING 1:
A recent report revealed that there is a growing number of people choose to make a baby later in their livelihood, which contribute to a negative impact on society at large. Furthermore, such situation may weaken a sense of household. Therefore, finding out the causes are of great significance.
There are a series of factors applying for this circumstance. The primary one to blame naturally goes to the economic concern. To be specific, nowadays, as our material life make a great forward, not surprisingly, what citizens spend on their children is becoming increasingly expensive, such as skyrocket housing price, high-priced educational cost, or surging goods and services in markets. Thus, the majority of people choose not to have children prematurely and even have children. Consequently, owing to steep costs, not only will adults put less value on raising children, but also the conception of family, like responsibility, unity may vanish step by step.
As much as what has been mentioned above, another factor we should not fail to notice is the government policy. A case in point is a common phenomenon in wealthy nations and regions, government and authority provides financial aid to the elderly and retiree, as a result, these people do not rely on their children to support them in old age. Similarly, in china, it is omnipresent that the late child-birth are encouraged, thus, some spouses intend not to sacrifice their own lifestyles to the time and expenditure of family in a short time. When the birthrates decline at a period, needless to say, some social problems embark on appearing, such as labor shortage, aging of population economic downturn.
It can be concluded from what mentioned above that the cause of late childbearing is due to financial worry as well as government plan. And then a string of side-effect may arise.
