Discipline plays a vital role in all-round development of children, especially while gaining an education.

However

is widely discussed in society. According to some people these are parents who are expected to instill

value, while others insist that

this

is a duty of pedagogues.

This

essay argues that

although

educators are definitely engaged in the development of self-command among students,

however

, parents have much more influence on their children by being role models. An average student spends from 4 to 6 hours in school every day, which makes a significant part of their

this

fact apparently makes some individuals to state that teachers must be responsible not only for students’ education, but

also

for the development of children’s personalities and behavioural skills. No doubt that in order to conduct classes effectively, educators must maintain a certain level of obedience, at

this

might be considered as a part of their duties.

However

, having 30-40 pupils in class, which is normally observed in Ukraine, it is unlikely that a teacher will be able to devote the necessary attention in terms of misbehaviour to every single student as he or she is more concerned about explaining the lesson within the allotted

thus

Besides

, in the majority of families, parents are taken as role models and an undeniable authority, which makes teaching disciplined manner way easier.

For example

, as per sociological survey conducted in Kiev schools among students aged 7-18 years, 36% of pupils reported to have parents as a

authority for them, compared to 3% of respondents who mentioned teachers.

Hence

although

teachers certainly shape the students’ discipline, but it is extremely difficult in conditions of modern schools and society,

thus

, it should be rather seen as a supportive measure. Whereas parents have more opportunities to instill good manners and to discipline,
