Some people think that a sense of competition in children should be encouraged. Others believe that children who are taught to co-operate rather than compete become more useful adults.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion
Childhood is an important phase in one’s life. The lessons learned in an early age may have a great impact on building up people’s personalities. It has been heated discussed, recently, whether the sense of competition or the awareness of cooperation should be encouraged. In this essay, both sides will be discussed and personal understanding will be clarified.
It is fairly reasonable that children are motivated to learn to compete in some aspects. Firstly, children are more likely to be well-trained in the process of competition. It is a rather common phenomenon that Chinese parents send their children to all kinds of tutorial classes where children are given varied practices and competitions. As a result, the performances of children who have received competition trainings tend to outweigh those who have not. Secondly, children will find drawbacks and learn from others through competition. It is much easier for children to see their shortcomings especially when they lost the competition. Finally, children encouraged to develop the sense of competition, to some extents, are also taught to make themselves better individuals, thus, it may keep children pursuing a better standard of life.
On the other hand, I can understand why people insist of teaching children how to cooperate. For one thing, the ability to cooperation and collaboration is essential in modern life. When college students seek for jobs, they are often required to show their capability to work in a team. Team players are preferentially considered in a job interview. For another, it is a good way that children make friends during cooperation in which children are expected to communicate and share thoughts.
In conclusion, both competition and cooperation do good to children’s developments. It is highly recommended that children should be taught on both aspects.
