Question

. Read the text and speak about the problem touched upon in the text. Give reasons for your opinion. It`s my brother`s first year at High School, but he doesn`t like it. He wanted to go to the sameschool as his friends, but my parents insisted that he would go to a different one. The truth is they weren`t happy with his choice of friends. But I think the parents cannot choose friends for their children.

Answer 1

Everythings depends on a certain child's age.

If a child is just 10-15 years old, where does he/she know what would be better for him/her? It's is only child and he/she knows almost nothing about good education.

In the case shown in the text, parents, obviously, knew where they sent their child and what kind of school that was.

Of course, children like to spend time with their friends, doesn't matter what kind of place it should be, school, college or something else. But children should listen to their parents, because they know what they do. 

Answer 2

The text touches upon the issue of parental control over their children's choice of friends and school. In this case, the parents insisted that the brother attend a different high school than his friends because they were not happy with his choice of friends. This has resulted in the brother feeling unhappy and not liking his new school.

In my opinion, while parents may have valid concerns about their children's choice of friends, ultimately they cannot choose friends for their children. It is important for children to have the freedom to make their own choices and learn from their experiences. By forcing their child to attend a different school and be separated from their friends, the parents may be causing more harm than good. It is important for parents to guide and advise their children, but ultimately they should respect their children's autonomy and trust them to make their own decisions.

Additionally, attending a school where one feels isolated from their friends can have a negative impact on their social and emotional well-being. It is important for children to have a support system and feel connected to their peers. Therefore, it is important for parents to consider the impact of their decisions on their children's happiness and well-being.
