It is currently believed that children's behaviour and misconduct is due to the lack of strict discipline and punishment applied by parents. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

In today's world, it is commonly considered that
children
's misconduct and bad behaviour is a result of inappropriate stringent discipline and being punished by their
parents
.
Although
there are a wide variety of factors affecting
children
's manner, I completely agree with
this
viewpoint. In the paragraphs to come, I shall
further
my ideas on
this
stance.
Firstly
, there are a lot of drawbacks and detrimental effects in punishing
children
especially, by their
parents
during
childhood
years. Not only does punishment has some physical pain for
children
, but
also
it has a wide variety of negative influences on
children
's brains and behaviour since they experience some shocking moments.
For example
, some recent surveys and research demonstrated that nearly all criminals had a terrible
childhood
and they were physically punished over and over by their
parents
with no important reason. It can be seen that these
children
can not follow the disciplines and rules in future and want to be harmful to society and bother other individuals for no special reason as they didn't learn to respect other
people
and rules.
Secondly
, when
children
grow up with no rules and undergo different punishments, there will be a sense of revenge in their minds especially, during adulthood.
In other words
, they commit a crime since they think that it is their duty to damage other
people
in society.
For instance
, most scholars claim that serial killers in most cases choose their victims among
people
that are resembling the ones that bothered them during their
childhood
sometimes like their
parents
. It seems that lack of discipline and punishment guide them to
this
pass to commit lots of crimes to compensate for their pain during their
childhood
years.
To conclude
,
while
the manner of
children
is influenced by some factors, I strongly believe that when
parents
have no discipline and punish their
children
a lot, they forced their
children
to be a criminal in future since punishment have lots of negative physical and mental effects and these
children
learn to bother other
people
.
Moreover
, they always have a sense of revenge for other individuals in society which force them to have aggressive behaviour towards others.
