Some people believe that allowing children to make their own choices on everyday matters (such as food, clothes and entertainment) is likely to result in a society of individuals who only think about their own wishes. Other people believe that it is important for children to make decisions about matters that affect them. Discuss both views and give your personal opinion

In recent years, the imperativeness of

children

's correct upbring has become a crucial part of parenting.

Although

it is necessary to provide some privilege to the young one's in making their daily life decisions, I believe that there should be certain limitations to

this

freedom as its excess can lead to the development of a selfish characteristic in them. In

For example

, a majority of students, whose parents are working professionals, tend to suffer from obesity as their parents do not have the time to cook and they,
