cowleg,you wrote that parents have little time for their kids because they are busy working hard to provide for them. Are you making excuses for parents? are you trying to say that the responsibility of parents ends at making money for the upkeep of the family?

Thank you madam for the question, i acknowledged parental training in my argument, but i oppose that parents should be blamed for what their child chose to do, am not making excuses for parents. I rather blame societal challenges that compel them to work hard enough there by having little close contact with their children.

The teacher only reads from books to the children what, how and when they should do things but the child learns faster from the way the parents behave; how they do a thing, the way and manner things are been done.

@bolded...are you also implying that children do not learn faster from how Teachers behave.
Secondly are you categorically implying that all a teacher does in your own words is "reads from books to the children what, how and when they should do things"

REXSUL you posted >>

Parents do not evalute the form and quantity of media permitted at home without knowing that their kids have a propensity to absorb the messages that bombard them because it is a proven fact that kids love to watch an excessive amount of unbeneficial programs on television and eventually exposing themselves to the negative influence in such programs.

What is your source for this crucial information, that gives this point more weight?

COWLEG you posted>>

Once a child reaches a certain age their parents cannot control everything they do Teenagers and adolescents are free thinking and independent, parents cannot and should not be held responsible for what a child does. Every individual is responsible for their actions, no parent teaches any wrong lesson to their children

What certain age are you implying, and are you saying parents can control everything a child does below that age.

Secondly what happens in a scenarios whereby a parent introduces a child into a family business where the business involves crime. Does your statement still hold?

Unf0rtunately, 99% of children who lack discipline in school have been taught by their parents that it is fine t0 d0 what they want.

What is your source?

Parents are supposed to be the first teachers of their children who are responsible for teaching them the proper behavi0urs before they g0 t0 sch00l and learn more from their teachers and peers.The basic valves of children are learned and developed at home with parents as their first teachers,so when kids misbehave, parents are more likely to be blame.

What happens when a child is raised in an orphanage?
Secondly are you supporting a new motion that says "parents are more likely to be blame" or the motion you were assigned which is that "Parents should be held responsible " ... for their school- going children's discipline problems.

Dj hack: At cowleg ,My question is simple ,u made mention of alcohol consumption in presence of kid is[b] hygienic [/b], i wanna know the morale lessons or unconscious lessons it impact on the kid, since you were in support, then there must be a reason why it isnt a bad influence

Meanwhile am not comfortable with the word hygienic, it is not a bad influence as long as their parents will not abuse the drink.

Debaters start doing justice to the question as soon as they are visible because time for answering the questions will soon be over

@Mattew briggs, Thank you sir, Once a child is not confine at home 24hours, i don't think parents can control everything a child does, don't forget children pretends alot and hide many things from their parents.

when a parent introduce a criminal business to his child, then the parent should be blamed and held responsible for what he thought the child.

Abuse or No Abuse! What is wrong is wrong, so you think taking it in their presence wouldn't catalyse them into taking it someday without knowing their capacity?

since the parents are their first teachers,they adapt faster fr0m their parents than teachers

Secondly are you categorically implying that all a teacher does in your own words is "reads from books to the children what, how and when they should do things" m0st teachers

At Mathew briggs....Yes we know a child absorbs what he is been thought at home and in the school with the same brain bt we all know that most of what teachers teaches in school is the subject given to them or what would you say in a situation whereby different teachers teaches the child different subject of cause there aim will be to meet up with the syllabus. But a child will learn from most of the action of his parent and this will comprise more of practical than theory.

Dj hack: Abuse or No Abuse! What is wrong is wrong, so you think taking it in their presence wouldn't catalyse them into taking it someday without knowing their capacity?

Personally i see alcohol as a drink for refreshment, it is only a bad thing when it is abused, meanwhile different brands of alcohol are advertised daily on tv and radios... there are many beer parlors in different neighborhoods so a child must not learn everything from his parents, they are easily exposed to this products in Nigeria bar tenders can sell alcohol to you regardless of your age, so legislation should be made to prevent sale of alcohol to underage children.

So what are finanally agreeing to is that some parents teach wrong to their child contrary to your earlier statement that goes thus... " No parent teaches any wrong lesson to their children

Ofcourse thank you.

ok.
your question: you wrote that there is always a child that will exhibit certain behavioral traits despite the best effort of her parents.isn't that contradictory to your stand?

Matthew briggs:

Sorry for my earlier write up, am trying to insinuate that no sane parent with moral uprightness will teach the child negative things

no,cause the child is an individual,theref0re might have a strange behavi0ur.....but its still the parents duty t0 ensure that a child is well behaved.

yes can you post the link please because the fact that children spend more time with their parent is very clear.

inotherwords parents should be blamed for the individualistic nature of their kids?

well,its n0t related t0 the t0pic

Rexsul: yes can you post the link please because the fact that children spend more time with their parent is very clear.

i have no link. i will rephrase.
isn't it preposterous to state that children spend more time with their parents considering the fact that in modern societies , children start school at an early age, spend most part of their days in school only to go home, rest and sleep til the next day.

its even worse once they become teenagers and go to boarding schools and universities.....?

Bulcqlay: please are you know saying you can present alcohol to your church pastor as a refreshment if he came as a guest to your house

I have seen pastors take alcohol, so it is a not big deal when they request such, i will make it available to them
