freedom

. To start with, in countries that give

freedom

to

children

, it might lead them down the wrong path as they do have not enough knowledge to understand what is right or wrong. If

children

are allowed to do whatever they want, they are more likely to grow into irresponsible adults lacking empathy.

For example

, in countries where there is too much personal

freedom

,

children

as young as fourteen years old regularly drive vehicles and cause accidents. There are

also

children

who bring guns to school and shoot

others

. These behaviours are unacceptable and there should be limits on what they can do.

On the other hand

, too many restrictions will stifle the growth of

children

. They need their personal space to grow and develop. Imposing too many

rules

on them will push them into depression and affect their normal growth. Studies have shown that

children

who grow up with proper parental care and fewer

rules

are more likely to prosper in life In my opinion, parents should have

rules

that govern

children

’s behaviour.

For instance

, they should not be allowed to do things that would hurt themselves or

others

. They should be taught to respect authority. At the same time, they should have the

freedom

to decide what they eat, drink, or do in their free time, as long as their choices are not harmful.

Children

need some

freedom

with suitable parental control since they do not know what is wrong and right for them. In conclusion,

rules

are necessary for

children

's growth into responsible adults who do themselves and

others

good, but parents need to be careful to ensure that

rules

should not affect their development and

freedom

at a young child age.
