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?

Children are at

such

age

of their life when they merely distinguish between the right and the wrong. It is very necessary for parents and teachers to teach them the same,

first

, by suggestion or advice followed by

punishment

as many times their inexperienced mind

mistakes.

Punishment

should not affect a child negatively; rather it must be constructive for them. Nowadays children are most vulnerable to get affected by surroundings and electronic media as they easily get exposed to

such

media. It is impossible to protect them getting exposed to the external environment.

Hence

it is mandatory for parents or teachers

to make

and sometimes

punishment

is necessary to protect them. At an early

age

, a child possesses boundless curiosity as he is just exposed to an outside world or society.

Thus they

the many wrong doings

. To prove that, the Stanford University had done many surveys

on

children and the results show that 80% children who had already been punished for their particular mistakes had not repeated the same, on a flip side only 40% who are just advised.

On the other hand

, punishments should always be associated with some lessons for children.

Punishment

must be fruitful and it must not be physically or mentally harmful.

For example

, world's nursery in Japan asks children to plant trees as a

punishment

. Many schools in India punish children by asking them to run few kilometres.

Such

punishments are constructive for children's health and society as well. To conclude, I believe that children have to learn about

the positives

and negatives at

and

punishment

is one of the effective ways to guide them learn

distinction.

However

, parents and teachers must use constructive and positive punishments to show them the right path.
