It’s 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? What sort of punishments should parents and teachers be allowed to use to teach good behavior to children?

No one can deny that early childhood is the fastest physical and mental growth age.

Children

learned and developed habits quickly at a young age. Some people argue that

children

in their toddlerhood should be punished for

. I completely disagree with the idea of punishing a young

child

because it will cause more harm to innocent brains than good. Undoubtedly, toddlers are uncontrollable and sometimes they are involved in activities that make parents and teachers upset.

However

, one should know these little angels are in the learning process and all stuff they do is out of their curiosity to seek how things work in our world.

For instance

, if a

child

ruined the mother's makeup, or throw a glass on the floor does not mean it was carried out intentionally. The young

children

should be explained politely about what consequences they could face if they do a particular act.

For example

, if a

child

helps his best friend at school in cheating exams should be explained in a manner that his helping nature does not get affected but he realized cheating is wrong.

Furthermore

, parents and teachers should use rewards

instead

of punishments for

children

's good acts. Evidently, in toddlers, some

such

as beating or bullying other

. The parents or teacher can put a

child

in time out or simply ground them from watching cartoons for a

while

and later explain to them what is wrong with

such

Nevertheless

, aggressive punishments will make

children

stubborn and they will disobey any rules.

To conclude

, young

children

should be given rewards for their good deeds, and if there are any intolerable bad deeds

then

they should be given low-level punishments for better outcomes.
