Teach Valuable Lessons About Parenting

Decent Essays
I believe that this activity should be required for all high school students. I think it should be required because it will teach valuable lessons about parenting. For example, this activity teaches kids that being a parent means taking care of your baby’s needs before your own. Also, it will make some students rethink their choices because after taking part in this activity you realize how difficult it would be to be a teen parent. The lessons learned from this project not only help reinforce some of the material we’ve learned in class, but it also teaches valuable life lessons about patience and parenting. I believe that it would give kids a greater respect for their parents as well

    In the Brave New World society where stability came before freedom, the right to acquire knowledge was sacrificed in order to maintain the contentment and balance of the community. In particular, the citizens’ knowledge of the past, especially regarding parenting, was strictly limited to only what the World Controllers deemed as acceptable and society-safe. As a result, the countless positive truths of parenting and the past were locked and hidden away, and the only information taught about the topics was that the past was a horrible time, and that parenting and families were absolute madness.…

    Every parent raises their child a certain way and there are multiple different parenting styles that parents normally choose from or do without realizing. Raising your children in a way that will not teach them how to take care of themselves as adults will affect their futures more than you would think (Lalicon). If a child is not taught how to do certain housework throughout their childhood, they might never learn how to do it themselves, especially if their parents do everything for them. Schools could very easily fix this issue. Throwing a class about life into a student’s schedule will benefit them immensely, particularly if they are stuck in the parents not teaching them these skills situations.…

    No one teaches humans how to be parents so what does a child expect from the person they call mom or dad? A child wants to feel loved, they want to feel trust, and they want acceptance and attention. The different parenting styles and the factors have to be taken into consideration such as time, the environment, and the social and psychological aspects as well. There are four different parenting styles according to Diana Baumrind, a well-known psychologist for her research on parenting styles in the 1940s. The four styles are the permissive, authoritarian, authoritative, and uninvolved parenting, based on her studies, from what she formed her Pillar theory.…

    Many believe parents do not sufficiently educate their children about the topics of parenting and sex education and feel that schools need to provide teens with training for adulthood and having it mandatory to complete parenting classes. Having such classes and also being required to take a sex education class would help students realize the importance of sex education and being properly trained for parenthood. Parents often believe sexuality, family planning and parenting needs to be taught at home, however, having a sex education class and a parent training class as a required credit in high school would help prevent future child abuse and neglect, gain crucial parenting skills, understanding of child development and help prevent teen pregnancy…
