Parents need to give early education to their children so that they can learn good things like respecting others, fears of older people, not wanting to do bad things. If parents do not care about this problem then the children will be neglected and continue to make mistakes.
-However, if parents always make all decision, children may think that is necessary to make all decision and became a dictator which nobody likes.

I strongly agree that parents should have no control over the lives of their children once they turn 16.

Argument 1 (Topic sentence):

Children need to be independent when they reached 16, as they already have their own thoughts and the ability to make decisions on their own life.

Facts or examples:
- Giving children a freedom to think and make decisions is very important. They have their dream, they have their style of working. If  parents keep on controlling them on the path of life, then they will be on the way to the life which their parents wished, not the life they want to live. To the end, they will be the robots under their parents' control. (they do not own their own lives - authority)
- It's time for the children to start being responsible for their decisions, it's not only affects the result, but also affect their personality and attitude face to others. Parents nowadays planned everything for their children to in case that nothing bad will happen, it will make the children lack of the experience to face difficulties. Once they need to work outside and face difficulties without parents' help, they may choose to resist the problem, by blaming on their colleagues, make the relationship and impressions worse, then the path of their life will be full of  negative emotions.
- Parents always want their children to fly with wings in the future, pay efforts on everything to have a better future. If parents still controlling the children when they reached 16, it will be cause of why the children are lacking of creative and independent thinking, just like locking their wings to fly. It doesn't make sense.

Argument 2 (Topic Sentence):

Mentally, controlling children may leads them to suffer from mental illness, even have the thought of suicide.

Facts or examples:
- It will give a huge pressure to the children,as the parents nowadays all wanted to make their children have great academic achievements, or be outstanding on some skills. These are may not the things the children want, but they are forced to archive, giving negative impacts on their mental health.
- Some of the parents may said they will give 'free time' for their children. What I have seen is, yes they will let their children to have a rest without homework and textbooks, but with the limitations they gave. Obviously, most of them are blocking the children to do what they want to do. Even at the time for rest, they still have no choice, rest with educational programmes, or practicing the piano with the songs they can choose, it that really giving them a time for a rest? Or, will they soon lose control because of lacking in the happiness of doing their own hobbies they like? My answer is definitely yes.
- Many of you may think that suicide is not common, but I would say that many 'future cases' are nearly to happen. Luckily, they will be saved by someone help to walk out the darkness. Unfortunately, thay will end their life on their own. Most of the cases, are caused by bad family relationships. Parents wish  their children to do in this way, but the children wish to do in another way but their parents prohibit them to do it. These quarrels are really common in our daily life, and grow the seed of 'A Children Fell Down From A Building'. Parents' power is bigger for sure, and they may use the power to make the children follow the way they planned. Soon, the children will choose to suicide, as they could only live under the the excuse of 'Listen what your parents said', no freedom, no choice. Then why not choose to end up this uneasy life?

Argument 3 (Topic Sentence):
Children who reached 16 have the rights to choose the way they want to live.
Facts or examples:
- ' It's not the best way to do this...' 'I believe that this will be better if you do this in this way...' 'None of your business!' I believe that all of you will say this when someone judge the way you choose to do. Isn't it annoying that when you already have the plan but someone is keep disturbing you? I believe that the parents which are still controlling their children, keep doing this to them everyday. I hope that the parents can think before they judge on their children, because they will feel the same when someone do the same thing. Give them a chance to do it alone, they may impress you in an unexpected way.
- Children are not your employees, as a parent you should support them to reach their dream. Different person have different likes and things they are good at. There's nothing bad if you let them do what they want, and I'm sure that it's more easily to success if they live in the way they like. Stop forcing them to keep on track that you want, let them shine on the stage of life they love.
- Many people said 'Life is like a piece of drawing paper.' It's their own paper and they have the power and choice to decide what should be like on the paper. It's ok if you give them guidance for future career, but not taking their brush away. It doesn't matter if the children's life is full of Joy or sadness. It's their own painting, it's the colour they shown themselves. It's priceless for a person's life, eventhough it's not perfect as the parents think.

Argument 1 (Topic sentence):
Children that are aged 16 Common Errorndependent from their parents.

Facts or examples:
- Self-care is important as it is what makes us have a healthy scheduled routine with self-discipline, but getting controlled by parents doesn't help with self-care especially at the age of 16, it will only make you more dependent from parents and cannot live without them.
- Children who are dependent from their parents, cannot decide different options in life, they often need help from parents to handle every single problem they faced.
Some parents even monitor their children, and try to control their children's action, these parents are called the helicopter parents. They try to control their children by clearing all the obstacles their children need to face on the path and then control their children's action, this makes their children dependent and losing self-care, leading them not being able to solve problems in life.

Argument 2 (Topic Sentence):
In addition, children may have their mental health hurt as pressure is constantly adding on them. (parents' control?)

Facts or examples:
- Nowadays, some parents often need their children to learn many different skills while having perfect academic score. They forced their children and control their action, with no misbehaviour allow. These parents are called the tiger moms, they want their children to be a perfect human just to get a high salary job without asking what their children really wants. Their children need to behave well while having brilliant academic score and requiring different skills at the same time. Easy to imagine that their children's mental health is constantly hurt from the huge pressure. According to the Mental Health Foundation, they have found that six out of ten of young people was overwhelmed by the pressure to succeed. (factor - pressure - origin - parents?) With them being stressed, their mental health is unhealthy as parents are controlling their children to be successful.

Argument 3 (Topic Sentence):
Furthermore, children that aged 16 need to learn the responsibilities in life from being independent.
Facts or examples:
- With the parents controlling their children's action, their children will not know whether their action is correct, just like servants. They will never think or even oppose the command given by their parents. Psychologist Diana Baumrind described these Authoritarian Parenting as "obedience- and status-oriented, and expect their orders to be obeyed without explanation." Thus, when these children need to live only by themselves, they will not know their responsibility in their life about what they should do and what they should not, causing them to keep making mistakes and wrongdoings as they do not know it is their responsibilities not to do so. Therefore, Authoritarian Parenting will make them not able to identify which actions are appropriate.

Argument 1 (Topic sentence):

Children need a transition period to really learn how to be responsible like an adult.

Facts or examples:
- A teenager's life is always relax, they don't have much pressure and anxiety. However, an adult's life is more challenging and difficult.
- Despite the fact that adults need to be responsible for their actions, they also have the responsibility to take care of their family. They are stressful in facing  financial problems and even unemployment.
- It is difficult for a 'new born' adult to take all the responsibility. They may feel overwhelmed and frustrated. Some even will escape from the reality.
-Therefore, it is important to give a 16 year-old child a time interval to adapt a new life of being an adult.

Argument 2 (Topic Sentence):

Under the control of parents, children aren't able to develop independent thinking.

Facts or examples:
- Independent thinking is very important to hone your personal skills on many levels, including the building of confidence and character. If a person isn't able to think independently, then he has a great chance to fall in scams as his alertness is low.
- A lack of independent thinking leads to the  appearance of mama's boy. A mama's boy needs to get his mum's approval for everything. It means that he has trouble to think for himself and make decisions on his own, based on what he truly wants.
- Children can't rely on their parents permanently. Their decisions can't be right all the time. Also, they will leave someday.  Therefore, children need to practice independent thinking.

Argument 3 (Topic Sentence):
Children don't have freedom and privacy under the control of 'helicopter parents'.

Facts or examples:
- Helicopter parents is a style of parents who are overly focused on their children. They just focus on children's grades and success but not provide them a good, comfortable condition to study.
- They control their child's life, including their friends, activities, interests and even their future careers. Some parents even check their child's phone at mid-night to confirm that they are doing 'well'.
- Their children had lost their rights to explore their interests and the world. They are just like marionettes controlled by their parents.

I strongly agree that parents should have no control over the lives of their children once they turn 16.

Argument 1 (Topic sentence):
When children are 16, they should start to learn how to be independent by planning their own life.

Facts or examples:
- In fact, children know how to manage life themselves can learn how to solve problems they may face in the future. In contrast, if they are controlled by their parents after 16, they do not have experience of living alone, it may make them being more rely on their parents as children have lived in comfort zone for a long period.
- For example, parents should not force their children to join activities or course they do not want, this action may make them feel stressed. They should let children make their own decision to choose activities which they interested in and give them big support.

Argument 2 (Topic Sentence):
Besides, parents should give their children in freedom to choose their friends.

Facts or examples:
- Parents let children find friends themselves is much better than parent help them to choose as this will help them how to communicate with others even in different races or gender. If parents do not give their children in freedom to choose friends, children cannot gain social skills and relations between parents and children will be worse as parents meddle too much. Also, parents will not know what kind of friends are suitable for children because only children know what they need in friendship.

Argument 3 (Topic Sentence):

Moreover, lots of children are under pressure from their parents.

Facts or examples:
- Nowadays, there are many "tiger parents", they use authoritarian parenting methods to push and pressure their children, in order to attain high levels of academic achievement or success in high-status extra curricular activities such as music. They want their children to become perfect (parents - perfect!! x ordinary - ideal - pressure - can't be flawed (no mistakes - don't want us fail - painful - have success - path to be smooth)  and give them huge pressure. No matter how hard their children works, they still cannot reach expectations of their parents as these expectations are too high.

I strongly agree that parents should have no control over the lives of their children once they turn 16.

Argument 1 (Topic sentence): First, children who are 16 already have their own interests and hobbies and parents should respect to them.

Facts or examples:
-Some parents will help children to decide to join any extra curricular activities.
-However, children may not like those activities because they have somethings that they like to do or not. When they are on the age of 16, they have the ability to choose their activities by themselves.
according to their own interests.
-If parents force children to join the activities they do not like, this may backfire on the children as they may hate that activities  ever after.

Argument 2 (Topic Sentence):
Children should have self-care ability during or before the age of 16.

Facts or examples:
-Some parents prepared all the meals, decide all the dressing, and solve all the problems for their children.
-For example, a child thinks an apple is white because his mom always peel the skin of apples for him.
-In fact, the children don't have any self-care ability. Therefore when they grow up, they can't take care of themselves and always need other people's helps. At the same time, people will laugh at and make fun with these 16 years old children.

Argument 1 (Topic sentence):
As children growing up, their mind and mental age will getting older and older. Interface from parents will strongly affect the growing of children.

Facts or examples:
As teenagers begin puberty, they are changing from a kid to an adult. They will find their self-image, which independence is also included inside. They will think like an adult, act like an adult. The difference between adult and children, is adult can be independent but children can’t. A over disruption will affect the self-image of the teenagers. Once parents keep controlling their children. They may rely their parents even if they become an adult so I think parents shouldn’t control their children once they become 16 as they started to have their own idea and decision.

Argument 2 (Topic Sentence):

Teenagers need time to accommodate themselves to the new surroundings.

Facts or examples:
Normally, teenagers will step into society once they turn into an adult. In fact , society is more cruel than school life, teenagers have to face different problems that they have never met before, such as a more complicated interpersonal relationship. And most of them are can’t solved by a teenager that just stepped into society. Many teenagers may have mood disorders because they can’t face well what they are facing, so I deem that parents shouldn’t their children as they once turn 16, they need a transition period to solve and face what they will face in the future.

Argument 3 (Topic Sentence):

Authoritarian Parenting=not letting children grow up

Facts or examples:
In this style of parenting, children are expected to follow the strict rules established by the parents. Failure to follow such rules usually results in punishment. While these parents have high demands, they are not very responsive to their children. They expect their children to behave exceptionally and not make errors, yet they provide very little direction about what their children should do or avoid in the future. Mistakes are punished, often quite harshly, yet their children are often left wondering exactly what they did wrong. According a study conducted by psychologist Diana Baumrind, children raised by this type of parents are very likely to be emotionally anxious,

autism, unhappy, and have a sense of inferiority. They are lack of social skills, getting hostile and frustration easily. Parents shouldn't always limit what can their children do, give more decision, and this is related to the topic: parents should have no control once they 16, so that they can be independent, won't have any confusion about their future.
