Some people think parents should read or tell stories to children. Others think parents needn’t do that as children can read books or watch TV, movies by themselves. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. There is an opinion that parents do not need to tell children stories or read books because they can do it on their own,
in contrast
 to
this
 position there is a belief that
this
 is part of the upbringing of children. I think that children should always read fairy tales or tell them stories because children need care. On the one hand, parents believe that the
child
 should be independent, so they do not consider it necessary to read the
child
 stories. They believe that children should choose what to read or watch without the help of their parents.
Therefore
,
such
 an attitude of parents is a form of caring for the
child
 and worrying about his future. Recent studies in psychology show that children who since childhood, become independent in the future adapt more quickly to adult life.
On the other hand
, many parents are convinced that reading books to children is part of their
child
's upbringing, and in raising children, the essential tool is
attention
. By spending time with children, they develop their human qualities of empathy and
attention
 to close people. If they ignore children, they may become callous and rude and unable to empathize. There is a lot of evidence that children remember very well the fairy tales of childhood that they were sung or told by their parents, and
this
 trace remains with children throughout their lives and helps them overcome the difficulties of our lives. I believe that the essential quality of a person is kindness and paying
attention
 to children makes
this
 world kinder. In conclusion, even though independence in life is an essential quality without which it will be difficult for children in adulthood, I believe that kindness and
attention
 to children will make them and
this
 world a better place.
