Some people believe that it is more important to teach children the literature of their own country than other countries. Do you agree or disagree?

People hold different views on whether

children

should learn the literature and

history

of their own country or other

countries

. As far as I am concerned I completely disagree with

children

only learning

the history

show examples

of their own nation. In

this

essay, I will give reasons for my opinion. First of all, only studying

history

from their own state could limit their understanding of other

countries

. Not only will their knowledge be limited, but there will

also

be some unwanted misunderstandings which easily lead to conflict between the citizens from different regions. For a long time,

this

could potentially result in a terrible war. An obvious example is that in the distant past, there were many wars caused by the misconception between different

countries

which resulted in the loss of money and people, and most of that was caused by the lack of understanding of world

history

.

Furthermore

, learning the

history

of other

countries

can greatly improve

children

's cognitive skills.

This

is because, they are able to learn new words, and languages,

in addition

to learning about the diverse lifestyle of other cultures which is really useful for them to enrich their vocabulary and grammar skills, and they can

also

improve their critical thinking and analyzing skills by comparing different works of literature. In conclusion,

while

many individuals may argue that it is more important to teach

children

the literature of their own country, it is evident that the

history

of other nations may bring many valuable benefits to

children

as well as

the development of their own country.
