Decision-making is not an easy thing to do even for elderly people. It is right to make good decisions so that you do not regret them someday. Some people believe that it is appropriate for the young in society to decide on their own.
However
Linking Words
, I side with the opinion that, they need the guidance of parents or elders to take stands. In
this
Linking Words
essay, both sides will be discussed.
Firstly
Linking Words
, when children are allowed to make their own opinion on everyday matters, they grow up being responsible adults.
This
Linking Words
is because they will have to account for every action they take.
For example
Linking Words
, young ones who are at liberty to choose the clothes they wear will consider factors
such
Linking Words
as the weather, where they are going etc rather than just the mere fact that they like the dress. As
such
Linking Words
, they are able to make a good judgment because they have learnt to consider so many factors before settling on an idea.
However
Linking Words
, these children are young and have little or no experience and so they most likely make the wrong decisions.
For example
Linking Words
, a child will choose sweets over a healthy meal because, in his or her perspective, sweets are tastier and better. Parents would
then
Linking Words
have to come in to inform
this
Linking Words
child that, sweets cause tooth decay and should not be eaten in excess. If they are allowed to do everything on their own, they'll end up in dangerous conditions. In conclusion,
although
Linking Words
it is right for young ones to have a decision of their own, parents' involvement in decision-making is the best because children are inexperienced and naive.
