It's important for children to learn the difference between right and wrong at an early age. Punishment is necessary to help them learn this distinction. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? What sort of punishment should parents and teachers be allowed to use to teach good behavior to children?

There are several stages in a child's life and growth and one of the most important one is the development of conscience, which is the ability to diagnose proper and wrong. I totally consent with the idea that

youngster

youngsters

show examples

need to understand proper or wrong, but I strongly believe that the idea of retribution is not working at all especially physical

punishment

. For the

children

to learn about a good or bad deed, they must have a role model.

Children

are reflections of adults especially their

parents

and close family.

Therefore

, to teach them right and wrong

parents

should be great role models as the

children

only reflect their

parents

' behaviour.

However

,

punishment

can have opposite consequences, especially physical

punishment

. Very young

children

like infants do not understand the reason they are punished, because they can't distinguish good or bad yet.

Instead

, other methods can be used like withdrawal of a privilege, prohibiting a favourite activity, and time-out. The forfeiture should fit the crime, it must make them avoid doing wrong things like throwing garbage, or fighting with friends and siblings, and cleaning their rooms after a messy play. When

parents

are aware of the consequences of their deeds and actions, they would never use discipline as a teaching method for their young

children

,

instead

, they behave consciously and thoughtfully to raise them and teach them wrong and right.

On the other hand

, those

parents

and teachers who use

punishment

as a way of educating young

children

will observe the adverse consequences in both the short-term and long term, which harms the minors significantly. So

as a result

, when they grow up to be adults, they will use

this

same bad method to raise their kids.
