In some countries it is thought advisable that children begin formal education at four years old, while in others they do not have to start school until they are seven or eight. How far do you agree with either of these views?

Nowadays the educational process of a

child

is considered fundamental and even mandatory in many countries, and when it should be started is a commonly often discussed argument.

Hence

, in some

seven. I agree with both statements and strongly believe that children should start schooling whenever they and their parents feel ready to do so. Reasons to support

this

view will be stated in the

next

paragraphs. On the one hand, starting

school

at

four

years

old might benefit the minor in the long run. The earlier he starts the earlier he will finish and will have the time to do more postgraduates studies before having a family.

For example

, finishing

school

at 16 gives room to evaluate different options and essay them at a slower pace until finding their "true calling", and without major responsibilities

such

as a family could bring more freedom and a sense of fulfilment.

Moreover

, the mother could

also

benefit from

this

alternative as she can have more free time to return to work or study when her offspring is at

school

.

Thus

,

this

choice might be advantageous for both, the

child

and her mother.

However

, I take the view that if the minor find a major challenge because he is not prepared for being many hours away from home or he is simply afraid of that novel environment, the decision should be made whenever parents and he have a consensus.

On the other hand

, I

also

agree that awaiting some more

years

to send the

child

to the education world is

also

acceptable.

This

possibility allows children to mature more before facing some stress and problems as the

school

may be sometimes quite demanding and challenging for many.

In addition

to

this

, the transition from being mostly at home with their families to interact with new people and be away from them is always easier for seven

years

old children than for

four

years

old ones.

For instance

, conducted research showed that true human being's necessity to socialize with others out of the family, normally starts at the

age

of seven or eight.

Therefore

it is by far less difficult for

this

age

to indulge in socializing and being more independent.

Thus

, it is

also

a beneficial option to bear in mind. To sum up,

although

I agree that individuals should start studying at the very young

age

of

four

, I think that beginning at a later

age

is

also

favourable. Both of these claims present different advantages that parents should evaluate before making a decision.
