Some people think that offenders should be put in prison. Others, however, believe that providing offenders with education and training is more effective than putting them in prison. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

causing problems in life safety.

of the latter, and the reasons will be elaborated on thoroughly as follows. An array of causes may lead to why putting
criminals
in prison seems to be an effective way of punishment.
To begin
with, because lawbreakers are all locked down in prison, our society will be safer, so those illegal and violent treatments are away from our lives.
That is
,
criminals
have been isolated away from people’s lives which can prevent harassment and detrimental effects on citizens, everyone can live safely without any fear.
On the other hand
, as far as I am concerned, providing
offenders
with
education
and training brings more benefits to individuals and society.
Firstly
,

and
also
prevent more crimes in the future.
Secondly
, most of the reasons for
offenders
committing crimes are based on survival, providing
education
for
offenders
can help them to learn life skills to make their own living. Take Taiwan as an example. Some authorities teach
offenders
new skills like producing soy sauce, sweets, etc, which helps
criminals
gain their new skills and no need to worry about their financial issues in the future,
this
will
also
reduce their thoughts of breaking the law again in future. In conclusion, based on the aforementioned, I am firmly convinced that providing
