    Since I am a grandmother I have a right to indulge my granddaughter.

    Please change your tune, because your son has too much effected from the Covid-19 quarantine days.

    I you insist to manage your work in conventional way your company will go bankrupt.

    The quarantine days gave me a chance to branch out.

    you need to say: because your son has been too affected by ..

    >to be affected by something

    >we need to use TOO when it is followed by an adjective

    >we need to use TOO MUCH or TOO MANY when it is followed by a noun


    When we use ‘insist’, we need the preposition ‘on’ and then the gerund (ing form). Like this

    > If you insist on managing ….
