Parents should be strictly spared from the child’s appalling actions (ENG 3010)

There has been a huge increase in the number of juvenile crimes recently. Apart from parents, there are many factors like, school, teachers, friends, television, internet etc. that are responsible for the downfall of children’s behavior.When a child commits a crime and investigation is done, it is very rarely stated by him that he was largely influenced by his parents or his parents were his key motivation behind his odious actions. But it is mostly likely to come out that he was inspired by his friends in school, television shows and movies. Many times, the child quotes activities and things from his teachers and friends in school. The parents have nothing to do with the child’s deeds.Many people might argue that it was the lack of good parenting and proper guidance on behalf of the parents that provoked the child to commit offensive crimes. But one should not forget that it is not solely the parent’s duty to provide him with correct guidance and moral values. The school plays an equally crucial role in a child’s nourishment and ethical teachings. The conduct of children is a result of a combination of parenting, schooling, social environment, and nature. It is true that parents’ role in training the child is substantial, but they did their job of warning and preventing. Then it has to be the child’s obligation to stick to moral values instilled in them by the parents and live peacefully amongst others in the community.
