Some people say that the experiences a child has before starting school have the most influence on their future life. Others say that experiences as a teenager, especially at school, are more influential. Discuss both views and give your own opinion?
It is sometimes said that what a child has experienced before the start of school has more impact on their future life, while other people believe that the exposure a child has during their teenage years, particularly at school, is more influential. In my opinion, each stage in a child's life, from infancy to being a teenager plays an equal role in shaping how their lives will turn out in the future. However, children hardly remember most things that occur during their childhood in comparison to teens who are fully aware, while having a high chance of being influenced by the actions of others.
