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 behaviour to children?

First
 of all, children will not regret their mistakes if they are not punished by the elders because they are not mature enough to realize their mistakes. Sometimes, they are unaware of

in the past. At that time, not only parents but

 teachers should teach them in the correct way which is giving them punishments. Only if they are punished by elders, they will never do the same mistake again. After that, they are too young to betake themselves. When they are castigated because of their

 punishment will make their lives successful and bright. ​
Moreover
, there are several kinds of punishments which are effective as well as not too stressful for kids to teach good habits to them.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
