Samuel ottimo lavoro! Ho apprezzato veramente il tuo impegno e i tuoi sforzi. Ti faccio inoltre i miei complimenti poiché sei riuscito a raggiungere un livello che ti permette di fare conversazione pur avendo studiato l'italiano da solo! Continua così!

    Can someone help me to correct this article? Thanks :)

    Some people think that parents should teach children how to be good members of society.

    Others, however, believe that school is the place to learn this.

    Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
    
    Every child needs to be taught how to be a good person in a society. While some argue that they should learn this from school, I believe parents uphold a much more important role in guiding their children to be a good members of society.

    There is no doubt that school acts as a mini society in which we are trained to behave in certain ways in order to avoid punishment or receive positive reinforcement. We submit homework on time, listen to our teacher and do not use violence to solve problem because we do not want to get in trouble. School sets out a very clear and organized rules or systems for children to follow and learn how to behave. In addition, there are lots of vivid and true experiences from their classmates or friends that if they fail to obey some school rule, they would end up having very bad consequences. Therefore, children will be conditioned over time at school and have better idea to be self-disciplined.

    However, I also believe that parents play more significant roles in shaping their children to become a decent person at a higher standard. Parents have more time to be with their children than our schoolteachers. They can teach their children what other essential moral values they should uphold. For instance, they should contribute, and be kind and caring to others. They may also share and discuss past experience with their kids, so they understand the rationale behind holding those moral value. Guiding their children to deal with difficult situations is another way to teach their children what a good person should act like.

    In conclusion, parents have much more influence than school in shaping their kids to be a good member of society.

    Where I'm from

    I grew up in Győrszentiván, a village in West-Hungary. This village was first mentioned in Hungarian royal documents in the 13th century on the names Villa Urunkang and Zent Iwan.

    According to historical research, it was first destroyed during the Mongolian invasion in 1241-42. Then in 1594 the Ottoman army encamped here during the siege of the city Győr. The residents, escaped, and the settlement was left totally empty. After the „Saint Allience” (a league of Austria, Hungary, Prussia and Russia) liberated the country, in 1699 people from croatia settled in the Szentmárton abbey . During the centuries the croatian population totally lost its original identity, only the family names remind us their ancestries. In 1809, the only Napoleonic war in Hungary was fought in the suburbs of Győr, a few kilometers away from my birthplace. During 1945-1991 the years of the Soviet invasion, russian forces were settled in the nearby barracks.

    In my childhood memories of watching Bud Spencer movies in the local cinema - the first rows were always full of soviet soldiers :). Though there was no chance for prosperity, life was calm and calculable that time. Then in 1991 the soviet army left and the collapse of Comecon market was followed by an economical crisis, both my parents lost their workplaces. But as the western market opened, the former barracks and abandoned factories turned to brown field investments. Now the largest employer in the region, the Audi Hungaria Zrt. is located on the adjacent lands of Győrszentiván giving work to thousands of local residents. Our new community center symbolises the strengthened economical positions of the region.


    Very interesting
