Q - Some people think it would be a good idea for schools to teach every young person how to be a good parent. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Describe the skills a person needs to be a good parent.

Parenting is the best thing that can happen to any couple's life. It is said that power comes with great responsibilities and so as parenthood comes with great responsibilities. By considering a seriousness of parenthood roles, many people assert that it should be taught at school. Personally, I tend to agree that it is good idea to teach parenting lessons to younger generations.

To start with, it is agreed that being a parent is not an easy decision to take in today's realistic world. Therefore, if such subjects been included into school curriculum, it will help young person's to understand, and for sure, will help them to be prepared for the role of parent when their time arises. Additionally, sometimes parents have to take some important decisions in terms of children's daily food, clothes, sports enrollment and interests in other co-curricular activities. Therefore, school level education will educate them in taking right decisions for their kids at right time.

For a person to be a good parents, most important skill, I believe, is to be patient. For example, parents have to be very patient when they are feeding their toddlers, and learning them. Secondly, parents have to make sure that they are giving enough time to their kids, otherwise it may impact parent-child relation in future. To take an instance, parents have to take them out on holidays, have to play different sports and educate them the benefits of playing sports, and have to go out with them on dine. These are the qualities needed for a person to become a parent.

In conclusion, It is agreed that do and don't of parenting should be taught to young students at schools in order to educate them about parenting role and developed the skills that required to become a parent. It is hope that more and more schools would indulge parenthood subjects in near future.

Hello!

I think you have covered the challenges of parenting very well, BUT you have NOT said why these skills need to be taught at school, rather than, for example, by parents.

This means that you have answered the general topic, but not the specific question, which will lose you marks.

Grammar is very good - in both range and accuracy - but your scores for the other criteria will be adversely affected.

All the best,
David
