Teaching young people and preparing them for the real world is not only parents´ job, but

also teachers have

the responsibility to look after children's behaviour.
Although
Linking Words
every child has to understand what is correct or incorrect to live in a society, it is unnecessary to punish to achieve
this

goal.
Therefore
Linking Words
, I completely disagree with the use of punishment as a tool to teach.
Moreover
Linking Words
, I consider there are other strategies to transmit good values to young people. Primarily, fear of parents and professors is not a strategy that works in the long term.
For instance
Linking Words
, many boys or girls do their

frightened of getting grounded.
This

feeling, is far from actually understanding that by doing

the contents of a specific school subject are learned.
Furthermore

Therefore

On the contrary

, punishing is only a way of enlarging the gap between adults and kids and making children scared all the time. Many specialist in the area of Psychology and Pedagogy of Buenos Aires University

Firstly

is the time out.
For example

that is

Similarly

it is said to be an excellent tool, not only to teach children the consequences of bad behaviours, but
also

to improve their learning skills. In conclusion, in spite many mothers, fathers and teachers believe punishing is the only way of transmitting the distinction of good and bad, in my opinion, children should interiorise and completely understand that our actions have consequences.
Therefore

, time out and extra

will help to learn how the world works and why one should always behave properly.
