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?

It is really great for
children
to learn the difference between good and bad because
that is
the golden age that their major personality is being deeply created, and learning the main difference between right and wrong performs a key role in shaping their personality.
Although
I am totally against punishments, I quite believe that removing privileges is an effective method for making rebellious
children
pay for their wrong actions.
Punishment
is not essential and actually hard
punishment
is doomed to ignite fear in
children
which makes them get terrified of their
parents
and other adults. There is no denying the fact that "Fear is the mother of lies."
In other words
, kids are so petrified of the
punishment
especially physical ones so that they begin to lie.
For instance
, when little
children
break something valuable by accident, they lie about it because of fear.

gone are the days, strict
teachers
mistakenly maintained that tough
punishment
made an important contribution to success in teaching and they repeatedly punish their students for not handing in their school assignments before deadlines
this
was not only an inappropriate solution

but
also
it made them scared and lie. Luckily modernism leaves no stone unturned to abolish hard
punishment
. Nowadays not only wise
parents
but
also
caring
teachers
employ conversing
instead
of
punishment
and
this
exerts a wonderful effect on
children
.
Therefore
, the less they get scared, the more honest they will be. So physical
punishment
does not seem to serve as a remedy for discipline. In some rare critical situations when talking fails, there will be no greater substitute rather than
punishment
. By

I mean curbing
children
and making them pay, for ,instance spoiled
children
should be forbidden from sitting beside their friends by
teachers
, and
parents
should make them help with house chores or put them in detention. It is good to make them face the adverse consequences of their actions. It always seems to me that whatever you do neither
punishment
nor talking, you will never achieve complete success in teaching
children
and in the end they will choose whatever they tend to. To conclude both
punishment
and talking are necessary, but
parents
and
teachers
are not supposed to go so far in either of them. If they do it logically, they will see the desired outcome.

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
