test 1,writing task 2 It is essential for children at a young age to develop a correct conscience, which comes from proper parenting. And punishment is an essential and effective approach to keep correct actions remembered. However, punishment is a method but not the purpose. Over punishments will always lead to bad effects. Therefore, I am partly agreed with the statement(which is punishment is necessary). firstly, punishment is very effective. Children who got punished will be afraid of making mistakes again. So bad actions will be effectively avoid when the children have a inappropriate intention. Secondly, punishment is important. Correcting bad behavior when children was at a young age can prevent they from making worse mistakes older. And punishing can help children develop a good quality, which is vital for their entire life. However, over punishment may cause the opposite effection on a child, or even bad influence. No one likes to be punished unreasonably. So when punished inappropriately, a child will not be convinced for his mistake but react the bad behavior to express his dissatisfaction or an act of resistance to the adults.However, there can be worse effects. A child who was long-term punished may get introverted and fear to express his thoughts, which may lead to his failure of life. Also, punishment can express an idea that it is ok for people to bully others who are weaker to a child. That may cause bullying in campuses. To sum up, punishment should be carried out appropriately. It is a good way to award children when they are doing something nice. That will deliver a signal that the opposite act will be discouraged, which reduces the usage of punishment.Also it is better to communicate more with children and teach them to tell right from wrong before inappropriate actions occur. In my opinion, communication, understanding and a good model of the parents will always have better effects than punishment.
