Some people think that a sense of competition in children should be encouraged. Others believe that children who are taught to co-operate rather than compete become more useful adults. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Since children are the promise of the morrow, raising them with the good guidelines is quite important. While some individuals believe that children should be taught about the spirit of

competition

, I believe minors who learn about other social values

such

as co-operation become a more successful person because being a social animal, human being always needs help and support from other people to excel in life. On the

one

hand, people who hold the view that sense of

competition

is vital to survive in

this

globalised world, do so, because according to their opinion, population is on the rise and every child needs to be prepared forehead to face adulthood

For instance

, in my country, India, a student needs to compete with millions of other students to secure good government job.

However

, by

position

requires many other social skills.

On the other hand

, it must be agreed that sense of co-operation is mandatory for long term survival at any

position

.

For example

, if a software project manager does not know how to work in a team, he would never be able to complete any project in a given time period.

Moreover

, human beings require help from other people in case medical emergency or financial crisis.
