Some people say that a person's success is as a result of the way he has been brought up by his parents. Do you agree or disagree?

It is widely believed that a man is nothing but a reflection of his parents.

Further

, some people are of the opinion that a person's wellbeing and success are directly associated with his upbringing. I agree with

this

view, because, in my humble opinion, successful man has successful habits and manners. Civil behaviour and healthy habits can be best framed in a human's mind when it is young. Civil obedience and successful habits which can be implemented to lead a prosperous life need years of efforts and practice.

This

can be best taught to a child when his mind is young. A nascent brain is like clay, it can be moulded easily. As it ages, it becomes more like concrete - hard and rigid. To illustrate

this

, a study was done by a group of researchers at Columbia University. They taught a simple yet golden rule of "early to bed and early to rise" to a bunch of 10 juveniles and 10 adults. While, juveniles developed

this

in less than 15 days, adults,

on the other hand

, adults took more than a few months to develop

this

habit. In my view,

this

illustrates well that best practices for leading a happy and prosperous life can be imbibed in a person at a young age easily.

Such

sustainable exercise of healthy habits over a period of many years will lead to a glorious future of the child.

Furthermore

, it is observed that at a young age a child idolises his parents. He tries to copy everything that his parents do. A good example of

this

is language. A youngster learns his mother tongue without any strenuous efforts.

On the other hand

, to learn any other language, it takes several years of hard work on his part.

Therefore

, it can be easily said that a man's habit, good or bad, is best shaped by his parents. To conclude, in my view, a person's upbringing and, particularly, his time with his parents play a very critical role in shaping up his future.
