1. Do children also make promises to their parents?
Yes, a lot. They promise to either be good boys and girls or to perform well in their academics. Sometimes to avoid punishment from their parents, children make promises out of fear.
2. Do most people fulfil their promises?
I would say no because everybody makes promises but only a few fulfil them, some only make empty promises while others want to fulfil but truthfully have no means to.
3. How do you feel when others break their promises?
I feel disappointed but I try to understand why the person broke the promise. If it is for a genuine reason then I will let it go but if not then I will find it difficult to trust or believe anything the person says again.
4. Who makes fake promises in your country?
This is a tricky question but I will say truthfully that the government makes fake promises during their campaign but does not fulfil them at all but instead make things worse. They are either busy getting richer or turning the country into chaos.
5. Should people make small promises?
I believe people should make promises based on their capacity.

People use computers for a variety of activities that range from collecting and storing data, carrying out research, watching movies and playing music, making graphic and artistic designs, having video conferences, playing games, communicating with people around the world, sending and receiving mails, among many other things.

I would say both. Computers make our lives easier because it makes us able to do things faster. For example, before the advent of the computer, people couldn’t send electronic emails, they had to type letters on typewriters and send them by post or by hand to the receiver. It has made normally herculean tasks easier for humans to carry out. It has also made our lives complex because due to the introduction of numerous software, people have to continuously learn and upgrade themselves. To be a secretary or clerk today, employers expect you to be proficient in the use of computers and software such as Microsoft Word, Excel, or Powerpoint.
