It is 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?

It is asserted by some people that knowing the difference between

right

and wrong is of great importance for

children

at an early age. In order to learn

this

distinction

children

should be punished. I completely disagree with

this

assertion based on some rational reasons. The

first

underlying justification is that punishment brings dire consequences.

To begin

with, penalizing leads to

children

loos their confidence. Simply put, when a child does something wrong, by penalty he just stresses out as well as can not focus on correcting his mistake and doing the

right

thing.

Moreover

,

children

generally have a sense of curiosity about all of the things in the world,

therefore

the penalty is spoiled their curious nature since

children

think that if they do something incorrectly, they will be penalized.

This

in turn leads to destroying their creativity and enthusiasm in regard to exploring their surroundings. It is clear that

children

are at an impressionable age.

Therefore

, their adults should teach them the contrast between good and bad. Providing good role models for

children

takes priority in some people’s opinions. Simply put, teachers and parents have the responsibility to explain the distinction between doing wrong and

right

via some stories. Take the Cinderella story as a proper example. In

this

story, two sisters were jealous of their half-sister and throughout the story, they were faced with the result of their bad behaviour.

Furthermore

, non-physical punishments should replace physical ones. To put it in another way, after doing wrong things

children

should ban to do their favourite activities

such

as watching TV, playing with their playmates. In conclusion,

however

,

children

need to be guided by their adults in order to distinguish between

right

and wrong things, my firm conviction is that penalty does not play a positive role in

this

regard as well as it seems that encouragement proves more beneficial.
