 about how to be good community members,
while

This
Linking Words
 essay would argue that
although
Linking Words
kids
Use synonyms
 will learn from their
parents
Use synonyms
,
school
Use synonyms
 is where
children
Use synonyms
 start to socialize and make friends. On the one hand, little
kids
Use synonyms
 spend most of their time with their family, they do not know what is correct and what is wrong, and the only thing that they do is watch and imitate their
parents
Use synonyms
. So, what the
parents

 do will directly affect the personality and the thoughts of the
kids
Use synonyms
, since the
children

 treat them as an example. Recent research concluded that around 80% of people’s personalities are similar to their parent’s personalities.
However

 grow up will spend more time at

 will influence their future, and if they will be good or bad members of society.

school

 have a very important role in people’s behaviour and the activities that they may carry out. In conclusion,
although
Linking Words
children
Use synonyms
 will listen and imitate their
parents
Use synonyms
, they are more likely to be influenced by actions that people carry out at
school
Use synonyms
 since they spend most time of the day there, and
that is
Linking Words
 why
school
Use synonyms
 is the place where
kids
Use synonyms
 should be taught how to be a good society member.
