In some countries children have very strict rules of behaviour, while in other countries they are allowed to do almost anything they want. To what extent should children have to follow rules?

Undoubtedly, parenting is one of the challenging and controversial issues in recent years, and many parents choose different pathways to breed their

children

. In

this

regard, some mothers and fathers do overcontrol while others believe in giving freedom to their offspring. From my standpoint, it is essential that every child have a cheerful childhood so there should be a balance in the restrictions imposed by parents.

Firstly

, childhood is one of the significant stages in an individual's life when

children

learn the basics of life.

Also

,

children

get familiar with the real world, and it is essential to feel supported by their family.

However

, some families, in order to protect their offspring, forbid them from participating in different activities which can lead to some undesirable consequences,

such

as low self-esteem, lack of confidence, and depression.

Secondly

, Toys have become an indispensable part of kids' lives, and many

children

make strong connections with them. Taking into account

this

issue, scientists highly recommend allocating time to playing some activities with minors that encourage creative thinking, but families mostly focus on

children

academic life and never let them find out their interests.

Thirdly

,

although

strict rules prevent minors from making mistakes, sometimes it would be beneficial for youngsters to learn from their mistakes. They can learn how to solve problems or start from scratch while everything does not go as planned,

otherwise

, youngsters should be always be tethered to their parents.

Finally

, with respect to the whole views mentioned above,

although

some rules are implemented to protect offspring from hazards, it is

children

's right to have the freedom to explore the world and develop their skills.
