In some cultures, children are often told that they can achieve anything if they try hard enough. What are the advantages and disadvantages of giving children this message?

#cultures #children #message
It is often argued that in some part of the world parents motivate their kids to
work
 hard,
thus
 they can reach any goal they have.
This
 method of upbringing have both positive and negative
consequenses
a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon
consequences
, namely the development of strong character and overworking. The main advantage of telling kids that everything is possible if they put more effort is raising a strong
person
. By
this
 I mean that if an individual knows from childhood that he or she can do anything,
then
this
person
 probably will believe in himself, have great self-esteem and
work
untill
up to, before the time
until
 the goal is reached. As a consequence, those kids will have higher chances to live a life without
regreats
a polite refusal of an invitation
regrets
regret
 since they tried everything they can.
For instance
, Nick Vujicic, a
person
 who
doest
mature female of mammals of which the male is called 'buck'
does
 not have
some
one or some or every or all without specification
any
 limbs as hands and legs, proved that everything is possible despite any obstacles. Notwithstanding his attempt to end up his life, regarding to his parents love, he stayed alive and now encouraging a plethora of people to get their dreams materialized.
Hence
, if parents advise their children to not give up and try hard because everything is possible, it can make those kids strong regardless of any difficulties.
However
, by claiming to children that they should
work
 hard in order to achieve the target can lead to the overworking, which is a negative development.
In other words
, since kids are not fully
formated
the organization of information according to preset specifications (usually for computer processing)
formatted
 individuals with a weak psychological state, those words can
stuck
Suggestion
stick
 in their
hads
the upper part of the human body or the front part of the body in animals; contains the face and brains
heads
.
Hence
, in the future kids will
work
untill
up to, before the time
until
 their goal is not
accomplushed
highly skilled
accomplished
; they will think that if it is not done,
then
 they
work
 not so hard as they should and will force
themselves
objective case of they
them
 to
work
 harder.
This
 phenomenon can be illustrated by the Korean system of studying. Korean school students tend to study for about 20
hourse
a period of time assigned for work
hours
houses
horses
 in a day
sacrifising
endure the loss of
sacrificing
 sleep and proper nutrition to get high marks in school, because only by
this
 way they can make their dreams come true.
Consequently
, parents should be careful when they tell their kids that they can reach anything if they try hard, because it can lead to overworking and damaging kids’ physical and mental condition. In conclusion,
although
 assuring children that they can reach anything if they put more effort can build a strong
person
 in them, which is a positive outcome, it has a disadvantage as overworking.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
