"It is important for children to learn the difference between right and wrong at an early age. Punishment is necessary to help them learn this distinction. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? What sort of punishment should parents and teachers be allowed to use to teach good behavior to children?

In modern pedagogy, disputes do not stop not only about the appropriateness of the application of punishment, but also about who, where, how much, how and for what purpose to punish. There is no definite answer to these questions to this day. Some educators believe that it is necessary to punish more often, especially in preschool and primary school age, in order to develop correct behaviour habits. Others advise resort to punishment very rarely, in exceptional cases. And there are those who are convinced that true upbringing is upbringing without any punishment.

Others say school uniforms infringe upon students' right to express their individuality, have no positive effect on behavior and academic achievement.Discuss both sides & give your opinion.

Looking towards highly socioeconomic disparity, there have been efforts made by professionals by implementing uniforms for children at school.
