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 punishments should parents and teachers be allowed to use to teach good behaviour to children?

Children

’s

behaviour

always reflects what they have been taught by their

parents

and

teachers

. Since a person's character forms during childhood, distinguishing between right and wrong is of paramount importance to their lives. Some people believe that

punishment

is important in recognizing appropriate

behaviour

. I completely agree with

this

view, and

this

essay will outline some appropriate

punishments

, which can be used by

parents

and

teachers

.

Although

Some

punishments

may have negative consequences, which can cause some mental illnesses

such

as anxiety, fear and isolation among

children

. I believe that those illnesses can be prevented if

parents

and

teachers

impose suitable and light

punishments

based on

children

’s situation.

for example

, the

punishment

the way of 4-year-old

children

is different from 14-year-old ones.

Also

, they should know about the traditional

punishments

as well as

avoid using them ,which are used in violent and physical forms in the past

such

as kicking, punching or causing some harmful scares, which had many disastrous effects.

Punishment

is one of the important forms of developing positive

behaviour

and discouraging negative ones in

children

, provided that it is used in the right types.

Therefore

, there are many appropriate types of

punishment

, which should be used by

teachers

and

parents

to teach good

behaviour

to

children

. In school,

teachers

can give

children

some responsibilities as

punishment

for example

when they do not do their homework

teachers

can give them a leader-team role because they may consider it as

punishment

at

first,

but after they can learn from their peers.

In addition

,

parents

can set some limitations as a

punishment

,

for example

when

children

watch many cartoons or play video games ,they can limit watching tv just after studying . These types of light

punishment

not only

,

can prevent form problems, which cause by harsh

punishment

but

also

can teach

children

to know about the right

behaviour

. In conclusion, despite some problems caused by severe

punishments

, they can be instrumental in teaching

children

by both

teachers

and

parents

, provided that they are used in a constructive way.
