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?

It is pertinent for children to know the distinction between good and bad early in life.

viewpoint that punishing children is vital to teaching them to distinguish what is wrong from what is right, the manner of deterrents I advocate for

the erring children

are reprimanding them verbally and denying them certain privileges over a period of time. I believe punishment is a viable tool

that is

is because when you do not rod the rod from mischievous people, they instinctively put in

Consequently

, learning from their own experience of how unpalatable these treatments are, children subconsciously decide not to tow that path again. One major punitive measure I recommend to parents and tutors for their wards, which is requisite to raising children with excellent moral, is through scolding them where necessary.

In other words

Linking Words

, whenever children do something stupid, parents should not excuse them, but rather constructively use words to put them in their rightful space. Meanwhile, words are especially potent in

guise as they are capable of moulding the character of these individuals in their formative years. Children want parental approval and praise, and if they are not given, they make a conscious effort to earn it by doing what will get them in their parents’ good book.

Furthermore

Linking Words

, depriving children of some privileges, which they usually enjoy, when they misbehave is another effective way of teaching them

difference.

For instance

, depriving teenagers of that extra vacation or game time because they have betrayed their guardians’ trust through a sheer act of disobedience has been shown by research to yield good results, considering children will always do things that would afford them the luxury of enjoying these occasions. In conclusion, it is often thought that punishment is a veritable way to correcting children in order to learn to separate good from evil. It is my view that

this

is absolutely imperative because it provides them the personal experience that they could use as

Although
