The minds of the children can be shaped during the early years of their
age
so
parents
have to be cautious about their
behaviour
. A few people ponder that offspring should be presented with a reward for showing the best
behaviour
while
others
postulate that they should be punished when they misbehave.
This
essay will discuss both sides of the views in detail;

manner with

.
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

items with their classmates. Teachers find

behaviour
and habits.
On the other hand
, some
parents
believe that punishing their offspring for misbehaviour will restrict their sons and daughters from repeating
such
kinds of actions. Most of the children show
and do not listen to their
parents
hence
the only option left for a mother or father is to show strictness for the betterment of the
child
.
For example

To conclude from the aforementioned arguments, I would like to infer that if a

is closely monitored during the younger
age
when they develop habits by encouraging and rewarding them for positive actions like respecting and helping
others
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
