× I don't have a bike when I was a child.
✓ I didn't have a bike when I was a child.
The original mixes present simple ('don't have') with a past time expression ('when I was a child'). Use past simple 'didn't have' to match the past context. Suggestion: use past tense for verbs when referring to past time frames (e.g., 'When I was a child, I didn't have a bike.'). (Grammar problem type ID: 6)
× Yes, I think so because some of umm children's are using this going to writing this, going to their school so that it that's.
✓ Yes, I think so because some children use them to go to school.
The original sentence has broken structure, unnecessary filler words, incorrect possessive form 'children's', and awkward verb phrases ('are using this going to writing this'). Correct version uses a clear subject 'some children', correct plural noun without possessive, and simple present 'use' to state a general fact. Suggestion: remove fillers (umm), avoid incorrect possessives for plural nouns, and use a concise clause (subject + verb + object) to express general habits or facts. (Grammar problem type ID: 26)
