Some parents believe children's leisure activities should be always educational, but others think it will cause more pressure on children. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Some people believe that

parents

should take their

children

’s free

time

into an educational activity

while

others argued that the compulsive would be put more on the

children

. I hold the view that the curriculum from a

school

can be put to leisure

activities

but the

parents

must have a good proportion to divide their

children

activities

with at least their own free

time

in it.

This

essay will explain both perspectives on whether give

children

an educational or pure entertainment activity.

Firstly

, many

parents

want their

children

to have a successful life in the future. One of the ways to achieve

this

successful living is by studying harder and having high grades in

school

. So , the

parents

want any

activities

that their

children

participate in correlated with academics.

For example

, the

parents

have arranged scheduled

activities

after

school

for their

children

and almost

activities

related to academics even when they have dinner.

On the other hand

,

children

become bored and less productive when they do not have a single

time

to free

time

that is

unrelated to their studies.

This

way, the students precisely become less motivated at

school

.

For instance

, the survey taken in Indonesia by the Ministry of Education stated that seven of ten students have average to good grades when they have leisure

time

at the weekends.

To sum up

, I believe that it is true for the

parents

to provide educational programs and

activities

in their

children

’s recreational

time

in order to get a good result in

school

but leisure

time

without interference is

also

one of the parts that the

children

have. It can reduce their stress level and be refreshed to start a new lesson.
