For school children, their teachers have more influence on their intelligence and social development than their parents. To what extend do you agree or disagree?

It is argued that teachers are more influential than parents on developing social and cognitive skills of young students.

This

essay is going to explain why some people think

this

and eventually, disagree with

this

point of view. It is a common belief that teachers have more influence to develop children's intelligence and social behaviour than parents because these are exactly the roles they are paid to play. When the parents enrol their children at

school

, they expect that they acquire education and good manners.

For example

, If the young students' guardians notice that there is something wrong in their children's attitude or they have difficulty to execute their homework by themselves, the parents usually go to the

school

in order to complain.

However

, it is not possible for the

school

to make up children's mind completely because young students spend time with their families and they can

also

learn different things with them and reproduce what they have learnt either at

school

or wherever.

For instance

, I was born in a Protestant family and I had different principles from the ones taught at the religion classes since my

school

was a Catholic educational institution. For

this

reason, I always argued against my teacher's opinion.

As a result

, the

school

could not overweight the principles I had learnt at home, in

this

case. To conclude, I disagree that

school

education is more powerful than parents on influencing intelligence and social skills of children. As

this

essay has presented, most of the childish development comes from children's upbringing with their parents.
