 Sample answer:
 Many parents compare their own childhood with their children’s experiences because they 
 want to teach them good behaviour. In my opinion, parents should not make such a 
 comparison for two reasons.
 Firstly, parents and their children belong to different generations. Parents experienced 
 different social changes and grew up in different economic conditions. These changes and 
 conditions have formed their points of views and behaviour. However, many social norms 
 have changed over the last decades. Therefore, it may be difficult to apply them to their 
 children’s life nowadays.
 In addition, when children are compared to their parents, they may lose their confidence 
 because they may think that they are not good enough. As a result, many of them will believe 
 that their parents don’t believe in their abilities and become afraid of living independently.
 In conclusion, parents shouldn’t compare their life experiences with their children’s 
 experiences because of generational differences and the negative emotional feelings that this 
 comparison may cause to their children. CONSOLIDATION
