Kitos, I am sorry for my last bad essay. Hope this is better. Thanks for your help.
In many countries children are engaged in some kinds of paid work. some people regard this as completely wrong, while others consider it as valuable work experience, important for learning and taking responsibility. What are your opinions on this?
In many countries, children dabble in some kinds of paid work, which often conjures up the picture of children being abused. cruelly. Some people therefore ARE strongly opposeD to children’s engagement in working. However, because working provides children with precious work experience and teaches them the value of money, I wholeheartedly spur children to hold a job.
In the first place, taking part in some kinds of paid work makes children well-prepared for their future. The more children get involved in real WORK, the better and deeper their knowledge of it. Practical knowledge is obviously a far cry from THE theoretical knowledge children usually accumulate at schools. Only by exposing themselves to the real working environment can children really understand how things ARE DONE. Little by little, children get accustomed to what can crop up in reality and manage to deal with it. Hence, children will not be shocked or at a total loss when confronting such hurdles. Moreover, in today’s tough competitive world, having several years of experience will give children A big advantage over others who do not. They definitely stand a higher chance of not only being employed by top companies, but also getting quickly promoted.
What’s more, getting paid for the job children have done dawns on them what the true meaning of money is. Usually, children only spend time studying, playing, etc, which often have nothing much to do with money. Parents hold total sway over children’s finaNcial matters for fear that money will gradually spoil their children, which results in children being confused with using money correctly. When chiLdren receive the money for all their good work, they will see how hard it is to earn a living, and then will treasure the amount of money, even a very small AMOUNT, that they have sweated to gain. Also, they will pay much more sympathy for parents who work strenuously every day to bring home the bacon. As time goes by, they get to know how to spend wisely, even lay a little aside for their future investment.
Nonetheless, some people argue that allowing children to work is unbeARable for them and that children are at the age of studying and playing, not working.I believe that there are lots of appropriate jobs for this age group, such as baby-sitters, tutors or delivering newspapers. With these jobs, besides experience and money, children can have a lot of fun too. Some others worry about many employers over-exploitING children’s workforce. However, governments have laws defending children rights, so I am convinced that any kind of forcing children to work exceedingly will be severely punished.
In a word, it cannot be denied that children doing a job will pose some threats, but these dangers are avoidable. Furthermore, the benefits this brings about outweigh other perils, that is, children have valuable work experience under their belt to go on smoothly and successfully on their career ladder, and get a great lesson about money. Thus, it is advisable to encourage children to take up a suitable and properly-paid job.
