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

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. Suggestion
teachers also have
Although
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
, I completely disagree with the use of punishment as a tool to teach. Moreover
, 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
, many boys or girls do their homework
frightened of getting grounded. This
feeling, is far from actually understanding that by doing homework
the contents of a specific school subject are learned. Furthermore
, they do not understand that by doing essays at home they
will achieve the necessary knowledge to go to university afterwards. Accept comma addition
home, they
Therefore
, penalties will not prepare students or kids for future decisions. 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 agree
on some measures that help teaching kids the difference between right and wrong. Suggestion
agrees
Firstly
, one strategy used oftenly
is the time out. For example
, when toddlers hit their younger siblings, they are sent apart for as many minutes as the age of the kid, that is
to say, if the boy is 3 years old it will be left alone without toys for 3 minutes. Similarly
, teachers can improve students misbehaviour by applying the same rule when they are small. Later in high school, extra homework
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 homework
will help to learn how the world works and why one should always behave properly.Submitted by claramorin on
