Some people are of the opinion that children should be rewarded for good behaviour. Others think they should be punished for bad behaviour. Discuss both views and give your personal opinion and reasons.
The debate over a
child
’s moral education is difficult due to the various viewpoints each party holds. The question of discipline is exceptionally important, moreover
whether to treat good behaviour
with a neutral attitude or to just focus on correcting incorrect actions. My personal opinion is that any positive actions ought to be immediately recognised by the parent and vice versa for negative conduct. This
balanced approach makes for a more positive outcome for both the kid and f
amily.

Firstly
rewarding a good act immediately signals a positive reaction in the child
’s brain which should encourage the child
to want to behave similarly
in the future
. Failure to recognise such
behaviour
leaves the child
with the same emotional feeling as if they had done nothing. Therefore
rewarding the child
regularly for good behaviour
enforces the action making it more likely to repeat itself in the future
.
Secondly
punishing the son or daughter is also
necessary, failure to discipline could have serious consequences in the future
. For example
,if a child
has no clear concept of respect for elders or authority it is quite possible to encounter more serious problems later in life. This
pattern is prevalent in marginal neighbourhoods throughout the world. Therefore
it is essential to immediately discipline the child
whenever witnessing an unruly act so as to enforce the correct behaviour
from an early age.
To conclude both bad and good actions need to be recognised and dealt with immediately to correct or encourage future
actions. Failure to do either of these could result in a less fortunate life or a youth who rarely performs any good acts for anyone. Therefore
it is critical that both types of behaviour
are recognised dealt with accordingly
for the benefit of the child
in the future
