130"How children are socialized today determines the destiny of society. Unfortunately, we have not yet learned how to raise children who can help bring about a better society."
There is a growing public concern over the issue of the socialization of children. The speaker asserts two statements in distinct respects. He claims that the future of society depends on how children are socialized, which I disagree, while considering that we have not yet get the hang of instructing children to generate a better society, which I fundamentally agree.
First of all I must admit that children who have been well socialized can deal with many situations, like negotiating with their peers while there is contradiction as well as respecting others' religious customs, relaxed. However, whether an individual contribute to form a better society does not simply hinge on the degree of socialization. Archimedes's contributions sprang primarily the result of his interest in mathematics, which had more to do with parental influence than with socialization among Alexandra, where converges various scientists and has advanced literature, mathematics, astronomy and medical science. In spite of the harsh demand from the dean and the coldly treatment of society, Mozart composed a great quantity of gorgeous opuses, which is connected with his raw talent instead of socialization. An even more extraordinary instance was Mahatma Gandhi, whose contributions sprang mainly from the courage of his inner conviction, in spite of his appropriate socialization among the surroundings in which he grow up.
To consider with the other standpoint of the speaker, it overstates the situation in some extent. As far as I concern, "better society" can be characterized as better cooperation, better environment, better development of science and peaceful coexistence of multiple culture, at that point the children of recent several decades do making society better and better. On the other hand, I have to point out that we have not yet know the best approach of raising children to bring about a better society. As the development of some nations and the increasingly population, more and more families have an only child, which result in the incompetence of children to associate with their peers. Meanwhile, schools merely educate them doctrinaire knowledge rather than pragmatic skills. That how can an individual grow into a real guy?
In sum, the socialization of children is not the only determination of society's destiny, some other factors, such as parental influence, raw talent and inner conviction, must be considered. Further more, we can bring up children to generate a better society by means of instruct them more practical skills. |
