Some people are of the opinion that children should be rewarded for good behaviour. Others think they should be punished for bad behaviour. Discuss both views and give your personal opinion and reasons.

while

postulate that they should be punished when they misbehave.

. On the one hand, proponents of giving reward to a

child

claim that continuous encouragement will have long term benefits.

Children

’s immature minds are not aware of (what’s right and what’s wrong) ethical or moral principles so when they are motivated for a certain action

then

they get a better understanding about it and they continue to do so

thus

leading to a good habit.

For instance

Therefore

and habits.

On the other hand

believe that punishing their offspring for misbehaviour will restrict their sons and daughters from repeating

and do not listen to their

hence

the only option left for a mother or father is to show strictness for the betterment of the

For example

even if it requires to punish or ground them. To conclude from the aforementioned arguments, I would like to infer that if a

is closely monitored during the younger

when they develop habits by encouraging and rewarding them for positive actions like respecting and helping

then

it will never lead to bad outcomes in future. Methods like punishment should only be considered if all the other ways to improve their
