As people often say, "Children are the future of our nation", the speaker's assertion on the importance of socializing the children is fundamentally correct. However, the speaker underestimate the ability of the society on raise children, even there is still some weakness in the education approaches.
The future will be mainly constructed and conducted by the people who are young in the present. They have to face various persons, to cooperate with other countries, to debate with the opposites, to exchange the information from the outside. What will happen if they have no idea on how to be a social man? They will be confined in the own limited world, knowing nothing about acquiring various ideas. They will find difficulties in talking with others and expressing themselves. They will lose self-identity and self-awareness in the complex society. If this happens on a few persons, the effect is only on individual level. However, if this is a prevalence in the whole society, who have the ability to manage the public missions, who have the talent to conduct the business, who have the features to lead the citizens? The society may be replete with confusion, suspicion, and complain Therefore it is the way that children are socialized today that determines the destiny of society.
Fortunately, whoever the educators, governors, or the parents have the foresight on this issue. Their endeavor on socialize children is evident in either schools or homes. The teachers in the kindergarten often design games which require the kids to cooperate with each other to get a goal. They teach the kids to play scenarios to help them understand the social roles and their specific behaviors, like father, mother, nurse, police, and journalist. Thus from the very young age, children begin to learn the social specialization and identify the responsibilities of each vocations and the way to be a moral man.
Later in the middle school, to high school and college, children encounter more and more social lessons. They are often encouraged to express their ideas to the classmates and teachers. The teachers always distribute team-work to the students, thus the children can find the cooperative way to deal with the homework and extend this skill in their later life. They also learn to respect others and how to solve conflict, or comprise. The sports held in the school are another important area for children to take participant into a group. From the class to the playground, children are cultivated to be a person living with others.
In the home, parents pay more and more attention to children's emotion intelligence nowadays. They promote the children to be responsible for the things they do. They encourage children to join communities and hold parties which give the chance of the children to communicate with friends, or others from different fields. The children are taught how to understand other's feelings and praised when they help others. Through these activities, children attain the sense of sympathy to look from others' standpoint and the skills to treat various communication situations.
Admittedly, sometimes the overemphasis on some special aspects of children impedes their socialization. For instance, the schools may pay over attention on children's examination which may mislead the students' attention. The media make little effort on educating children to socialize but on entertaining them only. Additionally, the limited resources and educated ways make the socialization less efficiency. The teachers have not enough time to teacher each student how to communicate with others according each one's characteristics. There may few opportunity for children to get familiar with the society, leaving them isolated in the home. The parents may not know how the children behave in other situations other than in the homes, so they have no idea on how to guide their behaviors at that time. Some of them may be over-confidence on their children. Or some may educate their kid by punishment which is not an appropriate way.
In sum, the society, including schools and families, have recognized the significance of socializing children, because of the its definite importance of not only the children itself but also the whole world. However, there is still a long way to go to develop a complete system to aid children how to be a social person. Effort is needed from schools, families and other social organizations. |
