According to the statement, the speaker claims that society's destiny depends on how children are socialized and we have not known how to foster children who can help bring about a better society。It has merit from a normative standpoint, beyond this concession, however, I find the speaker's contention indefensible from both an empirical and a normative standpoint. In my view, socialization is not the only one determinant of society’s destiny and we have really done well on educating children about how to build a better society.
First, it is quite compelling that socialization of children plays a vital important role in the process of social development in the future, as the term socialization is used by sociologist, social psychologists and educationalists to refer to the process of learning one’s culture and how to live within it, in two respects. For the individual, socialization cultivates children with basic capabilities acting and participating within their society, concluding basics, skills, abilities of self-care, leading, communication and cooperation, and so like, which are especially important in social development. For example, in the trend of globalization today, effective communication and cooperation capacity occupies an increasingly important position, such as in the field of scientific research, environmental protection cooperation, public health and disease control cooperation, economic and trade cooperation. Lacking of these capabilities will affect the speed and direction of the social development process. For the country, inducing all individual members into its moral norms, attitudes, values, motives, social roles,language and symbols is the means by which social and culture continuity are attained. To the contrary, the improper socialization led anti-social behavior, such as terrorism, drug trafficking, robbery, and violence, would seriously harm the healthy development of society. Therefore, the whole society, especially sociologists, educators, schools and parents, should pay attention to children's socialization education training.
However, the socialization of children is only one of the factors that determine the development of children, and it is even not the most important one. There are other important factors, such as innovation, scientific and technological level, sound laws and regulations and so forth. Consider Mahatma Gandhi who have contributed profoundly to a better society. The prominent leader’s contributions sprang primarily from the courage of his inner convictions, in spite of his proper socialization among genteel Indian society and, as a law student, among British society. An even more remarkable modern example was Theodore Roosevelt, whose social and physical development were both stunted by life-threatening physical infirmities during his childhood. In spite of his isolation, odd manner and aloofness throughout his early life, Roosevelt ascended to a social-activist presidency by means of his will to overcome physical infirmities, his voracious appetite for knowledge, and his raw intellect.
Finally, What is the most important, consider the item “better society” as equality, prosperity, stabilization, then we do have experienced great improvement and progress during the last decades. On the one hand, we have obtained a lot of means and methods in nurturing children of socialization, which is substantiated by the fact that the young people of the most recent half century are creating a better life. We have seen increasing sensitivity in our society toward ensuring public health by policing the food and drug industries and by protecting our natural environment. We can view these young people as being more sensitive to and respectful of the rights of women, various ethnic and racial groups, homosexuals and so on. On the other hand, it may be a spontaneous process of socialization, children need to grow up in frustration.
In sum, I concede that socialization is one of the most important factors influencing the destiny of society。Nonetheless, in a sense the speaker begs the question, by overrating the importance of socialization. And from what have been discussed above, we may safely reach the conclusion that it is not necessary for the speaker to hold such pessimistic attitude about the existing education system.

According to the statement, the speaker claims
that society's destiny depends on how children are socialized and we have not known how to foster children who can help bring about a better society. Although it has merit from a normative standpoint, I still cannot totally agree with the speaker’s such extreme position. In my view, socialization is not the only one determinant of society’s destiny and the present education about how to build a better society is not as negative as the speaker considers.

To polo童鞋: 客气了,谢谢你提出来的不同看法,我觉也很有道理。其实对于例子问题一直很纠结,不知道关于反对社会化重要性还什么好例子,大家呢?

To polo童鞋:谢谢你点出的关于教育干预社会化的问题。其实第二点自己写的时候就没想好,勉强写了一句没有展开。与其画蛇添足还是删了。

However, the socialization of children is only one of the factors that determine the development of society, and it is even not the most important one. There are other important factors, such as innovation, scientific and technological level, sound laws and regulations and so forth. Take the realm of politics for example. The leaders’ providence and persistence are pivotal for the political achievement. A remarkable modern example was Franklin Roosevelt, thanks to his provident visions and strategic maneuvers, successfully redeemed the destiny of the United States twice during his tenure, both in the America’s Great Depression and in the World War Two. Also consider Mahatma Gandhi who has contributed profoundly to a better society. The prominent leader’s contributions sprang primarily from the courage of his inner convictions, in spite of his proper socialization among genteel Indian society and, as a law student, among British society.
Finally, what is the most important, considering the item “better society” as equality, prosperity, stabilization, we do have experienced great improvement and progress during the last decades. We have obtained a lot of means and methods in nurturing children of socialization as well as other indispensable capabilities, which are substantiated by the fact that the young people of the most recent half century are creating a better life. We have seen increasing sensitivity in our society toward ensuring public health by policing the food and drug industries and by protecting our natural environment. We can view these young people as being more sensitive to and respectful of the rights of women, various ethnic and racial groups, homosexuals and so on.
