It is important for children to learn the difference between right and wrong at an early age. Punishment is necessary to help them learn this distinction.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
comparisonsWhat sort of punishment should parents and teachers be allowed to use to teach good behavior to children?
One important stage in a child growths is certainly the development of a conscience, which is linked to the ability to tell right from wrong. This skill comes with time and good parenting, and my firm conviction is that punishment does not have much of a role to play in this. Therefore I have to disagree almost entirely with the given statement.
To some extent the question depends on the age of the child. To punish a very young child is both wrong and foolish, as an infant will not understand what is happening or why he or she is being punished. Once the age of reason is reached however, a child can be rewarde
d for good behavior and discouraged from bad. This kind but firm approach will achieve more than harsh punishments, which might entail many negative consequences unintended by
the parents.
To help a child learn  the difference    between  right and wrong,  teachers  and
parents should firstly provide good role modelling in their own behavior. After
that, if sanctions    are  needed,  the  punishment    should  not be of a physical
nature,    as that  merely  sends    the message    that  it is acceptable    for larger
people    to hit smaller    ones-an    outcome    which  may  well  result  in the  child
starting to bully others. Nor should the punishment be in any way cruel.

Rather, teachers and parents can use a variety of methods to discipline their young charges, such as detention, withdrawal of privileges, and time-out. Making the punishment fit the crime is a useful notion. Which would see children being made to pick up rubbish they have dropped, clean up graffiti they have drawn, or apologise to someone they have hurt. In these ways responsibility is developed in the child, which leads to much better future behavior than does punishment.
