The reason i chose support systems is because we are all in a college class and we all face a difficult time getting through it. Some of us may have a big range of support while other may not have any at all. I am writing this topic because i feel that it is important to have people in your corner pushing you to be better and to succeed. The majority of people cant get through life and succeed without the support of someone. Whether that be family, friends, teachers, or groups, we all need someone. However, if your support is your parents then sometimes they can be a little too supportive and that can damage you in the long run. If someone has parents that do everything for them, then they are never going to learn how to deal with issues on their own and succeed. There is definitely more pros to having a support system but there can come a point when it is too much.
The issue that is in my topic would be the need for support systems to succeed. Most people, i would say, want to succeed in all aspects of life. In order to do this, it requires the support of someone or something. For smaller things you may not need any help but for much bigger things like getting through college, or having kids, or overcoming a disease, you need someone on your side to help you get through it. The other issue that i want to include in my topic is the issue of too much support and how that can damage your kids.
I just want to add the different views of having a support system, whether it be friends, family, teachers or a support group. The point of the issue is that we need someone to help us get through the hard things because we all need to be cheered on and hear that everything will be okay. But, we do need to make sure that we are doing things on our own because if someone is doing things for you, like solving problems then youll never learn to have confidence and do things on your own and youll always be dependent on someone else.
Thesis statement: People need a support system to get through the tough things in life ranging from learning to ride a bike to dealing with depression. We all need someone in our corner, however, too much support can cause the person to be dependent and not learn to do things on their own.
