Boys and girls didn’t use to sit together. But nowadays they sit together. However there are a lot of different schools in our city, where boys and girls sit together. I think it is bad because boys and girls need to learn to communicate. And if they sit separately, how can they manage to do it. Many people think that they have to sit separately because of discipline. But I believe it is better for boys and girls to sit together.
