Etisalat Blocking website


Etsalat has been blocking websites that might be dangerous or harmful for people who are in UAE. Some people believe that what this company does is good for us. Others think that there are important websites which should not blocked in UAE. This essay will discuss the pros and cons of Etsalat blocking websites.
            There are several arguments in favour of blocking websites in the UAE. First, parents can be more comfortable while their children use the internet. For example, when you open any website, there might be immoral websites, so Etsalat they block these websites and children cannot see the immoral things. Another important point is to avoid learning bad habits, such as making a girlfriend or boyfriend which is forbidden in our culture and learning bad English words from anyone. The last point is to avoid viruses on the computer. For instance, some websites are actually viruses that people want to put in your computer and steal your information or hack your computer and damage it.
However, there are many people against blocking websites. First, there are important websites, such as websites that have important information for researching or studying. Second, stop the sharing between the people. For example, they block social websites which people they come from other countries to UAE they can’t talk with their family or sharing pictures. The last argument is that adult should be able to choose, like adults should be responsible for their behavior. Adult can think what is good or bad for his behavior.
In conclusion, blocking websites and keeping websites on both have advantages. However, I strongly believe that blocking websites is far better to keep our children in safe from bad habits and bad behavior because children will grow and they will serves our country, so they need good habits and good behavior.

#5Using Mobile Phones


Everyone now has a mobile phone and using them is useful for us. However, some people use their phones while driving. Some people think this is illegal about using mobile phone while driving, and others argue that it’s necessary. In this essay will discuss both making mobile phones illegal use while driving, and against making it illegal.
First, there are several points to make illegal of using mobile phones while driving. You can concentrate while driving if you talk on the phone. For example, you will cause an accident and maybe somebody will die from this accident. Another important point is sometimes people forget the traffic light which may cause a big accident and maybe he will lose his life and others life. The last point is driving slowly to talk will make a traffic jam and driving fast that will make traffic fines like from speed radar.
On the other hand, using mobile phones sometimes have a useful impact. First necessary emergency calls, such as you are sick and can’t drive or somebody in your family are sick, second point is  if you are stuck in the traffic you can’t talk with friend better than getting angry and nervous. The last important is you may have an important call. For instance your manager call and also other business calls.
In short using mobile phones has both positive and negative use. In my opinion is best to make a balance between illegal use of phones and legal use. Remember that somebody is always waiting for you at home to come back in good health.

Watching TV


In the past children lived close to nature and didn’t have TV. Today many children in the world watch TV for many hours. This essay will discuss the problems of watching TV too much and I will suggest some solutions of this problem.
There are many problems of watching TV too much. First of all, the children who watch TV too much will have bad eyesight. As a result, they will be a when they will be very old or can’t see clearly. Another reason, against watching TV too much, without walking or exercising, the children will become obese in early age. The most important reason is the children will be autistic so they will not have social life.
Although these problems are very dangerous, we can solve the problem by taking some solutions. First, educate children to know how is will affect their eyes, not only their eyes, but also their brains. Another solution is to make them walk and exercise every day. Finally, the government should build a small public park in each neighbor, so the children will reduce watching TV and play outside with the children.
To sum up, watching the TV too much is a problem for the children because it will affect their eyes, bodies and social life, we can solve this problem by educating children, give them exercises every day and build a small park in each area. I wish that we have solved this problem.

Obesity In The UAE

Today, most people in UAE are very fat which are come from several problems. There are many problems which cause the obesity in the UAE, such as diet, lifestyle and education. This problem requires a serious action from the people to reduce from their weight.
            Most people are very fat because of change in diet.  For instance, everyday people eat from fast food which is creating the obesity. Also, our traditional food specially rice which we eaten every day. Some parents don’t know. The consequences from eating rice every day are, so they didn’t change the meals for their children. However, lifestyle is also one problem from obesity. Young people can eat outside the home because of money they get from their parents. Also, they do not do exercises especially after they marry. Last, education is very important for health. Some people have a lack of knowledge about good eating habits.  For example, most people don’t care about their health and they eat more than the body wants. Moreover, children are fed too much.
Fortunately, there are remedies for this solution. First, educate people in a special class about eating diet. For example, people in the schools, colleges and universities should have a subject called personal health with credit to make people interested in this subject. Also, encourage people to eat at healthy restaurants instead of fast food. For instance, people who work outside home for long time they can eat from Subway and vegetable restaurants which make them healthier than eating from fast food. Finally, teach people to do some exercises. For example, people should have also another subject with credit is called sports to teach them some good exercises for their health.
            To sum up, obesity in UAE can cause many problems, but with these remedies will reduce the causes as soon as possible. People should take care of them self to have a good lifestyle now and in the future.
