Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents should allow children to make mistakes and let them learn from their own mistakes.
It is natural that parents want to take every risk out of their children's life for their unconditional and profound love. However, parents should also admit the fact that making mistakes and learning from them contributes to their children’s independence, acquiring new-knowledge and creativity.
No one is perfect, so making mistakes is a natural part of life. In fact, parents cannot stop their children from making mistakes. The only thing they can do is encourage their children to make progress by doing something wrong.
First of all, in the process of figuring out a way to correct their own mistakes, children gradually come to learn how to be independent, which accounts for a crucial part of their growth. Without parents' help or deliberate disturbance with the mistakes children make, the only way for children to trust in themselves. Therefore, children will be more self-reliant and positive of their life in time. Children, especially those in primary and middle school, who try to check their own assignments after school without parents' assistance, are supposed to perform better in final examinations, according to a survey conducted by Peking University last year. Li Jun, the leader in that research group, claims that children are more likely to act independently after days of help-yourself exercises. By contrast, children always under parents' protection have an inclination to ask for help firstly rather than figure a way out on their own. So it is greatly apparent that parents should stand for the idea that children ought to learn from their own mistakes, in order to help them gain self-confidence and capabilities to lick problem by themselves.
Further more, children will learn unexpected skills and knowledge by making mistakes and taking lessons from them. When you irritate someone by saying something unpleasant, you will learn how to behave politely next time. Once you choose a wrong way to reach your destination, you will avoid it if you face the same fork road in the future. In this way, children will surely enrich themselves with many more wise insights. For instance, when I was in high school, I had a tough time struggling with memorizing English words. It was extremely cutthroat for me at first because I misspelled words in every test. Then I persisted spending two hours each day untangling that problem for a month. Eventually, I came up with a way, which is drawing pictures to help press the words into my brain .It turned out successful and efficient. So I would certainly assert that you can always expect surprise on the road to cope with your mistakes.
Last but not least, regardless of any situation, children will surely become more creative thanks to the inspirations the mistakes bring to them. Correcting mistakes is a sort of brain-storming, to some extent. You will endeavor yourself to come up with ways they have never been before. And those ways are what we call innovation. No one can deny the basic fact that creativity is of high value, a stimulus triggering a parades of revolutions in every aspect of society. Thus, there is little dispute that parents could resist the temptation that their children will drive on an innovation superhighway, for the inspiration from mistakes as stepping stone.
It is a matter of the children's future rather than a doubt about the merits and the defects of making mistakes. Parents, who allow their children to make mistakes and let them learn from their own mistakes, have more insightful plans for their children's life, which would lead to a bright and glorious future consequently.
