From Haidhi Wiki

Some people think that parents should teach children how to be good members of society. Others believe that school is the place to learn this. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.


Some people view children should be taught by their parents while others think school is the proper place to guide their pupils. Both teaching methods have their own advantages. However, I firmly believe that students should learn from their parents to be good members of society.

Some parents think that school is the best place to lay a strong foundation for pupils' characters. This is because educational institution can make children learn how to socialize with others and can create strong communication skills. These skills are extremely important since they need capable cooperative abilities when they enter college or work life. For instance, social sectors such as education are actively hiring students who are graduated from schools since they have good colaborative skills that are required to give a great deal of contributions for society.

On the other hand, I would agree that parents play as a crucial factor in guiding their children since they are the first school for their kids. This is because parents are the person who know the most about their children in terms of physique or mental conditions. Therefore, they are considered who have proper teaching methods for their kids. Research conducted by social psychology consistently suggests that students who are taught by their parents before entering schools have higher levels of empaty compared to students who study in schools immediately.

To conclude, schools are the best place to teach children since they are provide students with social skills that are very important for the future. However, parents are the most important factor because they have knowledge about their children and have proper methods.
