Some people believe teachers should have the final say about children’s education, while others believe parents should make these decisions. Discuss both sides.

There is the notion that
teachers

have better judgement of a student's abilities and
therefore
Linking Words
should have more power over their student's future in education.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, others say that
parents
Use synonyms
are the ones, who should make these choices for their children. I strongly disagree with both ideas.
First,
Linking Words
it is my belief that a person should have full freedom of choice.
Following
Linking Words
this
Linking Words
logic, no one other than the individual can make decisions for them. I believe it is understandable that other people,
such
Linking Words
as
parents
Use synonyms
or
teachers
Use synonyms
, may be able to see potential, which is unknown to the student, but
this
Linking Words
does not mean they can make the right choice because they do not understand the other person's wants.
For example
Linking Words
, my
parents
Use synonyms
and many of my
teachers
Use synonyms
have told me I would be a great doctor because I do not get affected by the pain of others as easily as other people but I have no interest in biology.
Second,
Linking Words
it is often possible for
parents
Use synonyms
and
teachers
Use synonyms
to know the kid
as well as
Linking Words
they think or have other motives. Going back to the given example, my
parents
Use synonyms
did not take into account the fact I am scared of blood
while
Linking Words
making the suggestion that I study biology at university because for them it is important to have a doctor in the family as it is a tradition.
Also
Linking Words
, my
teachers
Use synonyms
thought I was good at biology because of my high grades but did not know that
this
Linking Words
was my hardest subject and I barely achieved high results. In conclusion, it is impossible to know everything about somebody else to make a good choice for their future. Eeducation is a decision that will determine the person's life, so, it is best to be taken alone and have help only if wanted.
