Some people think that parents should teach their children how to be good members of society. Others, however, believe that school is the best place to learn this. Discuss both views and give your own opinion

Details of politicians’ private lives should not be published in 
newspapers. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Newspapers should not issue stories of 
politicians’ private lives. I totally 
disagree with the statement because it is in the public interests to publish, 
and some readers get interested in politics after reading the stories. 
Printing the details of politicians’ private lives in newspapers is i
n the 
public interests. Readers can understand more on politicians’ values 
through the stories, and it gives voters information who have the same 
values with them. For example, some lawmakers put their families in first 
priority and they often do volunteer work with their children. If voters see 
these stories in newspapers and if they have the same values with them, 
they are likely to vote them in the next election because the politicians 
may propose laws that protect the values of family. Therefore, I 
comp
letely disagree that stories of politicians’ private lives should not be 
published. 
After reading stories of politicians’ private lives in newspapers, some 
readers become more interested in politics. Readers who get interested in 
stories of politicians will read further on things that are related to the 
politicians, and this leads them to become more interests in politics. For 
example, the former US President Donald Trump appeared in newspapers 
several time during his presidency, and the stories covered his relationship 
with the First Lady. Some readers found these stories interesting and they 
started following policy that Trump proposed to make, and later on 
demonstrations of support were held by them. Therefore, I totally disagree

with the statement that newspapers should not issue the stories of 
politicians’ private lives.
In conclusion, I completely disagree that stories of politicians’ private lives 
should not be printed because it is in the public interests, and some 
readers become more interested in politics after reading the stories.
