Some people think it would be a good idea for schools to teach every young person how to be a good parent. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Describe the skills a person needs to be a good parent.

Parenting can be hard sometimes. At a times, one would think, if someone taught them how to handle kids, the road would have been much easier. But
that is
not the case, everyone learns with experience when it comes to parenting. According to me, there is no good or bad guardian as it all depends on how an individual handles the situation at a given moment.
For instance
, if a toddler is crying in the market over a toy, individual who gets the toys for the child which makes him happy is seen as a good parent,
on the contrary
, individual who lets the child cry and did not buy the toy is seen as a bad parent but here he/she is trying to teach the kid not to be stubborn
otherwise
the kid will always cry and gets his/her wish fulfilled. Here both parents are trying to make their young-one happy,
however
, they are using a different approach. Parenting is a full-time dynamic job, human does not know what his/her kid will do. Kids can be unpredictable and every child is different, so a person has to react
accordingly
.
Although
there are some benchmarks for how to be a good parent , they do not work every time. Humans learn from other humans,
for example
, as a teenager I used to see my mother and father, taking care of us and now that I have my own children, I see the pattern in my behaviour as similar to them. So from my experience, one needs to be very calm and patient with their children and it has to be both mom and dad. If the mother is feeling restless or uneasy
then
the father can take over for some time and vice-versa.
This
is the only thing that has worked for me and my kids.
This
is the only skill needed.

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
