MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT TODAY THERE IS A GENERAL INCREASE IN ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR AND LACK OF RESPECT FOR OTHERS AMONG CHILDREN. Why MIGHT HAVE CAUSED THIS SITUATION? HOW TO IMPROVE IT?

Recent years have witnessed an exponential increase in the number of

children

showing disrespect and displaying

such

act to others

that is

socially unacceptable.

Although

there are a number of

reasons

associated with

this

, out of which the ineffective learning system of schools and inadequate supervision by

parents

are major, (yet) some viable solutions are there which can address the problem effectively.

This

essay will discuss the arguments and solutions in the upcoming paragraphs before the conclusion is drawn. There are many

reasons

which are responsible for showing anti-social behaviour and disrespect by

children

to other society members. One of the primary causes is the curricula of most schools which are mainly based on academic subjects,

instead

of focusing even slightly on moral education.

This

might/may be because of

such

institutions’ management which expects higher grades from students, aside from the importance of imparting

such

knowledge that can make the students more law-abiding in their later age. Another reason that leads to the situation is supervising offspring inadequately by their

parents

which often means improper upbringing.

This

is often due to being a part of

such

a rat race in which both

parents

are to earn richly by working longer hours.

For example

,

such

less time devotion to their nourishment not only makes them disgruntled and aggressive but

also

deprives them of learning etiquette, a necessary aspect of a stable upbringing. Despite these

reasons

, solutions are manifold and can be effective to bring some changes in their behaviour from anti-social to social. The possible method would be for the training department that can focus on making improvements in the school curriculum.

This

can be achieved only by introducing a subject related to moral education, which used to be taught in many educational institutes in the past. It is,

therefore

, highly likely that

such

an approach will tilt them towards noble deeds. Another workable option is to adopt stability from

parents

in order to provide

children

with tender care.

This

can be possible if

parents

of

such

children

having anti-social nature give proper time by cutting longer working hours and taking their

children

to local counselling clubs and arranging family visits.

For instance

, in my neighbourhood, a teenager, whose aggressive behaviour and disgruntled nature appeared a concern kept on causing grave difficulty for other neighbours until or unless he was given strict and careful supervision by their

parents

, after which the same child started treating everyone with deep respect. In conclusion, even though lack of effectiveness in education methods and

parents

' control over their

children

are two principal

reasons

, some possible ways, mentioned above, are essential in order to turn them into respectable citizens in their later life.
