Band 7

Some people suggest that children do not understand the world of work and schools should make all teenager spend a short time working as well as studying academic subjects. To what extent do you agree?

Some people are of the idea that
children
 have no experience in working, that’s why they do not understand the world of
work
.
Then
 in order to make them understand, schools must have a rule forcing all the teenagers to consume an amount of
time
 for working
besides
 studying at classes. From my point of view, I completely disagree with
this
 way of thinking. One of the main reasons leading to my disagreement is that
children
 might have not officially worked, they do have to struggle with homework. Nowadays, most of the schools are inflicting a great deal of homework upon students, which is why even though
children
 have not got their workplaces yet but they already understand clearly the feeling of dealing
work
 in an office.
This
 means forcing the teenagers to
work
 not only reduces their
time
 for doing homework but
also
 their
time
 for recharging their batteries. The
second
 reason reinforcing my opinion would be the distraction that working can cause in
children
. Working always goes along with a little payment or reward, it’s easy for
children
 to get completely immersed in it.
For example
, in America, many teenagers choose to drop out of school in order to get a job in McDonald or other fast-food chains, convenience stores because they only see the petty reward in front of their eyes, so they lose their patience and let go of a bigger opportunity in
further
 future. In a nutshell,
although
 encouraging the
children
 to
work
 and experience can be justified for some reasons, I’m more inclined towards
this
 idea’s downsides because of the aforementioned reasons. But if a child can really balance his
time
 between working and studying, it would be the perfect chance for him to experience the world of
work
 in advance.
