WRITING TASK 2(ESSAY TOPIC)

Task 2

In some countries children have very strict rules of behaviour, while in other countries they are allowed to do almost anything they want.

To what extent should children have to follow rules?

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Childhood is the time of learning for children. Different countries have different rules of behaviour, but if children do not learn the correct rules they may not be able to fit into their society when they grow up. I believe it is important for children to learn that they must follow certain rules in their society.

Different countries have their own ideas about what is polite and acceptable behaviour. In some societies, school children are expected to remain quiet, and pay close attention to the teacher. It is considered very impolite for a student to ask questions and interrupt a teacher. Flow-ever, in other societies children are encouraged to ask teachers questions and participate in discussions.

What is acceptable behaviour for children is determined by the traditions and customs of a country.

Even though these traditions and customs differ from country to country, all adults naturally want their children to grow up to be respectful citizens in their country. Being different does not mean being wrong. It is simply the responsibility of parents to teach their society's accepted code of behaviour to their children.

In conclusion, although each country has different ideas about acceptable behaviour for children, I believe that it is important for children to learn exactly what is appropriate and what is not. This should be done by parents laying down clear rules and then taking responsibility for ensuring that their children follow them. There is no doubt that learning to behave responsibly must begin from an early age.
