Parents are The Best Teacher

Posted by teacher on December 28, 2011

Parents, obviously, can teach and bring up the children well and be very important teachers in children’s lives. They show their children the first lessons such as how to crawl, stand and speak. Parents; however, are not always the best teachers.

Firstly, parents, undoubtedly, give birth and take care of children for the whole time. Therefore, parents are the ones who understand children most. The closer parents and children are, the easier parents can educate their children. They know children’s strong points and weak points. From this, they can orient the suitable way to teach their children. But in reality, they seem not to be the best teachers. There are some parents actually don’t understand their children much because the have a bit time to be close to children. For example, it takes them to be on business trip and do not care anything about their children.

In addition, parents sometimes do not pay attention to their children’s desire. Parents seem to separate their children from their mind. For instance, if parents love art, they may try to force the children to love art, too. But what if their children’s true interest is art? Thus, parents and children have some difficulties in solving problems. It’s difficult for parents to become the best teachers.
