Please review my IELTS essay: Recent figures show an increase in violent crime among youngsters under the age of 18. Some psychologists claim that the basic reason for this is that children these days are not getting the social and emotional learning from parents and teachers. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Many people argue that the lack of social and emotional learning from families and schools is a primary reason for the increasing popularity of juvenile crimes. Personally, I totally agree with this view due to the influence of parents on children and excessive focus on the achievements of teachers.
To begin with, since the majority of young people live with their families, their parents have a huge impact on their offspring. More specifically, as most parents in a fast-paced society are busy and stressed with their work, they have limited time to educate their children on how to tell right from wrong and sometimes can have negative words or behaviors which can adversely the children’s emotional development. For instance, if young people live in a family where domestic violence occurs on a regular basis, their characters will be more likely to be aggressive, resulting in behavioral problems outside the home in the future.
In addition, the modern educational system tends to emphasize more on academic outcomes rather than possessing an ethical mindset. In fact, students are often encouraged to compete with each other to get the highest reward, and the winners would receive more attention and preferences from teachers and schools. This can lead to resentment among young generations since they could feel envy for their friends. As a result, innocent children will have a tendency to find ways to win others without considering how bad their actions are, which may lead to violent crimes later on.
In conclusion, I strongly believe that parents and educators should be responsible for crimes caused by teenagers due to the effect of parents on the children and overlooking of ethical perspectives of many teachers.
