Reasons why children should look after an animal

In this essay, I am going to give my reasons why it is a good idea that children have pets. (or: why children should have pets)
Firstly, we have to take into account that currently children usually stay at  (currently suggests that this has been different in the past, or is likely to change?)
home most of the time. This is due to the fact that they don't need to
get  go out to have fun. Children prefer to stay at home playing video games than socialize socialising. (OR: children prefer to stay at home and play video games than socialize)  Therefore, I think that if we let children look after an animal,
they will have the chance to socialize more often. For instance, if we give them a dog, they would be required to walk it.
Secondly, this is a good way to educate teach (educate sounds a bit forceful, patronising) children how to respect animals. To my mind, if you raise are raised with a pet, you will love animals when you get older. For that reason, I think that it could be a good thing in order to eradicate animal mistreatment in the world.
Thirdly, these experience could teach children how to face cope with / understand / deal with (face death sounds a bit brutal!) death. Unfortunately, pets usually, don´t last for our whole lives, most of them usually have shorter lives than the human beings.
Therefore, in spite of the fact that is a really difficult time, this could make stronger to kids stronger.
To sum up, I recommend giving away a pets to our children, because they can to help them grow up as a person.

Firstly, we should realise that today many children stay at home most of the time. This is because they don't need to go outside to have fun.

Thirdly, this experience could teach children how to face death. Unfortunately, pets usually don´t last for our whole lives, and most of them die before us.
Therefore, although this is a really difficult time, it could make kids stronger.
