In many countries, children are engaged in some kind of paid work. Some people regard this as completely wrong, while others consider it as valuable work experience, important for learning and taking responsibility. Discuss both these views and give your won opinion.

According to the recently published data, many
children
are working nowadays to earn extra
money
to support their education

or their own expenses. Some believe working is not essential at that stage in life as kids should just concentrate on education,
however
others and I believe encouraging
children
to start working early teaches them the value of
money
. In

I will discuss both views by using examples from, Oxford University 2020 study and the Daily Mail 2019 survey. On one hand, many parents believe it is best that
children
should just focus on basic fundamentals of learning, as
this
is going to be a vital component in their lives and should not get distracted by jobs, as they have a whole life to do so.
For example
, a study done in 2020 by Oxford University found that 76% of young people working part-time had 15. 5 % lower grades than
children
who are not involved in any
work
. Based on these results, it can be said that
children
who are only fixated on studying tend to get higher marks
in contrast
to youngsters who have jobs. So if
children
just focused on school-learning and not on paid-
work
they will increase their grade percentile in school.
On the other hand
, many believe if you give
children
more responsibility
such
as part-time job, they become independent early

and learn to spend
money
carefully. Many parents start
this
learning technique early by paying kids for doing chores around the house.
For example
, a Daily Mail survey done in 2019, found that 89.8% of
children
who tend to start working early spend less
money
on unnecessary items compared to
children
who do not start
work
early. Based on these statistics, it can be said that
children
learn to handle
money
better if they start working at an early age.
Additionally
gives them an experience of what working life looks like. To conclude from the aforementioned arguments, it is a personal choice to
work
or not during education,
