Who is more responsible for teaching children to be a good citizen: school or parent? Being a good citizen is to be aware of others ans respectuf of some common rules. The main point of concern is who is more responsible for teaching this matter : education system or parents? Let us start by education system. Through this institution, children are allowed to know their citizen's duties. Indeed, in school some society rule are taught such as how our society works. On the other hand, we can consider school as a small society where children could interact each other and understand what defines a good or bad member of a group. Moreover, students must respect a number of discipline rules which permit to maintain a certain order in school. Education system by is main objective give an overview of a good citizen. Although schools play a crucial role in regard to educating children, parents must assume an important role as well. As a model, it is wellknown that children are inclined to satisfied more their parents than their teachers. Parents are responsible for children's education. By their influence, parents define what is good or bad for their pupils. By the way, it is sometimes evolves in thorny debates between parents who could not agree with this subjective perspective: what is define a good or bad citizen? In my opinion, both school or parents are responsible for determining and teaching to children how to be a good citizen. Nevertheles, as a parent, I can not help thinking this role must be assume firstly by parents who are the supervisor of how their children have to be educated.
