In many countries today, parents are able to choose to send their children to single sex schools or co-educational Schools. Some people think that children going to single sex schools have the disadvantages later in life. To what extent do you agree?

In many nations, parents have the freedom and the right to opt any form of schools for their beloved children

such

as single

gender

school

or co-educational one.

However

, the dispute about the pros and cons of attending single

gender

schools has been aroused in recent years. Some people suggest that its demerits will have an adverse influence on children's later life. I personally agree with

this

statement for several reasons which will be

further

discussed and elaborated in

this

essay.

To begin

with, single

gender

schools limit the interaction between two genders. As the

school

is the place for children to learn how to form a friendship and respect the difference among individuals.

However

, without the experience of socializing with the opposite

sex

, it might be hard for them to blend in the real society in the future.

For instance

, they will meet and cooperate with the opposite

sex

at workplace like supervisors or fellow colleagues, lacking the skill of interacting with different

gender

, they might have the problem of socialization.

Consequently

, co-educational schools can provide the platform for students to learn how to get along with the different

gender

.

Besides

that, there is a higher possibility of occurrence on

school

bullying. Some pupils work well with the peers who are the same

gender

, while others do not. By example, it is common that a more feminine boy is taunted and intimidated by those assertive students because he looks like a girl or skinny.

Similarly

, a girl who has less interest in the latest fashion is

also

easily get bullied in the

school

.

Accordingly

, the single

sex

school

is not suited for every kid and the pressure from peers may be stronger than other type of schools. In conclusion, the restriction of interacting with the opposite

gender

and the intense stress among peers is the main demerits of the single

gender

school

, and both can harm the minors mentally and physically, even cause the irreparable results.

Therefore

, I approve the given statement and suggest that parents should be more discretion before sending their children to single

sex

schools.
