Some people think that parents should teach children how to be good
members of society. Others, however, believe that school is the place to learn
them.
Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
People have different views about the best place to teach children to be a good
person, in school or at home. While there are some benefits to learn behaviors and
attitudes at school, I believe that family plays the main role in children education.
On the one hand, the school can be a good place for children to learn both
academic knowledge and social skills, helping them develop fully in terms of
mental and physical aspects. It is undeniable that teachers provide from basic to
advanced knowledge of all subjects. By doing practices at school, children might
establish and improve a wide range of skills such as working independently and
collaboratively, presentation skill, the skill of finding and analyzing information.
Moreover, the school is a small environment of a very large society where
children are taught on how to behave with teachers and other students in socially
accepted manners. When they leave school, their knowledge and skills will help
them in doing a job well. It can, therefore, be argued that school education should
gain more attention from the general public as it fully prepares children with
relevant skills useful for their adult life, helping them become good citizens.
On the other hand, it is even more important to prepare for children essential
knowledge in many aspects of life which can only be acquired at home. Parents
are usually the first teachers who guide their children from the beginning steps.
Children learn from their parents’ behaviors and attitudes right after they were
born so the family has significant influences on forming their characteristics. For
example, my mother often takes part in charity activities because she supposes that
she has a huge fortune to have all current degree of success and happiness she
wants but thousands of people out there are less lucky. By contrast, there are
thousands of people out there are less lucky than she is, and they do not have
sufficient food to eat and clothes to wear. Her thoughts instill into my psyche and
support me to do as many volunteers work as I can. Life always has challenges
and rewards, and parents should be beside and teach their children on how to deal
with difficulties.
In conclusion, I understand why people might consider school is the place to teach

children to be good individuals of society, but it seems to me that family is a much
more important environment to build key characteristics for an adult life.
