In a family, both men and women should be employed outside the home and share
childcare equally. To what extent do you agree with this statem ent?
a
The economic benefits and the general benefits to children are the reasons why I believe
that men should work outside the home and women should not. These traditional
roles have
worked successfully for a long time, so,
in my opinion, they do not need to change now.
b
Also, women should be the main carers for their children. Although some people argue
that women should be
able to work outside the home, this is hard when there are
children. Women give birth to the children and they need to
be w ith them when they are
small. It is also better for the children to grow up with a parent w ho is always at home.
Being looked after by a professional carer is not as good for children.
c
Nowadays, the traditional roles of men and women have changed. More men help in the
home and more women go out to work. Some people
say that this is a good thing, while
others say that this is a negative thing. I believe that men
should go out to work and
wom en should stay at home. I believe that this is more economically efficient, and it is
also better for children.
d The traditional structure of men working and women staying
at home means that the
family has more economic benefits. A man working full-time is likely to earn more
money than a man and woman both working part-time. Also,
it means that the woman
can do things at home to save money, like making clothes or growing food.
