Band 6.5

It is important for children to learn the difference between right and wrong at an early age. Punishment is necessary to help them learn this distinction. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? What sort of punishment should parents and teachers be allowed to use to teach good behaviour to children?

#children #difference #right #age #punishment #distinction #sort #parents #teachers #behaviour
It is said that it is important for
children
 to differentiate between right and wrong. And sometimes
parents
 and teachers should take the help of
punishment
 to follow
this
 virtue. I partially agree with
this
 statement and a wise way of
punishment
 must be opted.
Firstly
,
parents
 should keep an eye on their
children
 because
children
 do not know what actually lies outside of their bubble and it is the
parents
 who have seen the world and know the consequences of mistakes. So, the upbringing of a child from the initial stages with mutual understanding can have a huge impact on a child's cognitive development and help to understand what is right for him/her. Schools and teachers
also
 make
children
 accountable as it helps them to be punctual and respectful of others. Sometimes offspring make a fault without knowing its consequences and
parents
 must opt for
penalty
Correct article usage
a penalty
show examples
 and make sure that
children
 can not repeat that mistake again.
punishment
 is become the law of society but a wise way of
punishment
 is necessary for
children
.
For instance
, if
children
 make mistake the same mistake again
then
 some
parents
 beat up their
children
while
 others give some restrictions like not going out to play with their friends and not going to the cinema to watch movies during weekends and so on. I think the latter one is the best for
children
.
To conclude
, both the teachers and
parents
 are responsible for offspring to differentiate between right and wrong but
parents
 are more responsible because the child stays with them most of the time.
