Dose a child have the rights and allowance to manage his own
life? Nowadays, most parents and teachers make more and more
rules for children. Many people believe that it is good to encourage
good behaviors and keep child away from dangerous. While, another
argument exists that too many rules will limit children’s creativity
and happiness and children need more freedom. This is admittedly
a topic worthy of discussion.
Many people maintain that more rules for children can develop
their food behavior. For example, children have a regular time to eat
and sleep, which is benefit to their health. Furthermore, children who
have good behaviors may be more attractive and favored by other
people.
Children are more likely to be away from dangerous if they obey
the rules. As is known to all, most accidents in the roads happened
because lack of the knowledge of rules. Children always want to do
what they want to do if without any limitation.
Taking an alternative perspective, it can be argued that rules may
limit children’s creativity and happiness. If parents do not allow their
children to watch TV until 10 o’clock, their children will be unhappy.
They may usually follow what their teachers order and forget creating.
What’s more, children need more freedom. They can enjoy
themselves and have fun if they have more freedom. Children have
the rights to decide what they really want, which can make children
much happier.
Taking all these factors into consideration, it is generally accepted
that rules can protect children and encourage good behaviors.
However, it is hard to say whether rules limit children’s creativity and
happiness. Here, I firmly believe that though it is desirable to allow
children as much individual freedom as possible, this should never
be at the risk of children’s safety. Moreover, parents and teachers have
the responsibility to educate children, who need some rules to assist
them.
