                        Notion: The idea of progress

Intro

I’m going to deal with the notion “Idea of progress”. First of all, I’d like to state a definition of “Progress”.                                                                                  Progress is the idea that the world and the society can evolve in terms of sciences, technology, modernization, living condition, etc. However, the idea of progress is still debated between those who consider that it’s beneficial and those for whom it’s harmful.                                                                                                             We may wonder to what extend “How does the evolution of society influence family structures?”

But being part of  a big family can be great because they have fun together, they don’t need to find friend outside to play  games.

Conclusion

In brief, we should not fear progress but we must be cautious because it’s not everyone whom is agree with new types of families such as blended families, step family, same-sex parents, unmarried couples, side effect of  step-family can come when you don’t see it.

To my mind, progress can be a good thing for the society, we can’t stay in the past, things changes, people too, we can’t say it’s a bad thing because in the religion a man must love a girl and girl must love a man, like proverb tell “the heart has its reasons which reason knows nothing
