Sample Answer of Describe a Decision Made by Others/Someone that You Disagreed With
I Will like to talk about a decision made by my father, although it wasn’t about me, my younger sister, while she was at school unknown to her, my father decided to engage her to a son of his old-time friend to maintain their relationship. I objected to it because my sister is not only too young for that but also doesn’t know the man in question talk less of having feelings for him, more so, the proposal was of selfish interest, just to maintain an old-time friendship. I called the attention of my parents to the consequences of choosing a life partner for someone and urged them to reconsider their decision which I am waiting hopefully.
