Who Is Really To Blame?

In English class, were were debating about who is really to blame for bad behavior, the child or the parent. When children are born, they are taught to be good, but how can a child learn when their parents are constantly messing up in front of them.
When a parent cusses in front of their child, especially a younger one, or constantly doesn't show them any love or compassion, the child thinks that that is the correct way to behave. studies show that many people in gangs or in jail grew up with one parent who wasn't eligible to take care of them the way that they needed to be taken care of.
Parents are very important in a child's life. They give them the foundation for their own life, and when a parent is a bad influence, it gives the kid the wrong impression when he or she goes off into the world. I think that kids are unfairly blamed for being naughty because they were brought up wrong. The kids do make their own decisions that the parents don't make for them, but when the kids are brought up incorrectly and without love, it makes them feel like it okay for them to act out and behave incorrectly.
Children are defined by their parents. They model after them, and if you are a bad, unloving, and selfish parent, then your child will end up like you. And the parents in denial might not think that is a bad thing, but it is.
People make stupid mistakes when parenting. Teen pregnancies for example. They think that abortion is the right answer, but what is killing an innocent baby who you at least owe their life to going to do? Nothing. What is being a terrible parent going to do. Not much to you, but it will severely mess up your child.
Children are not to blame for their wrong up-bringing. They act out due to how they were raised. Parents need to either take responsibility and take the right care of their children, or just be safe and stay away from any possibilities that can make you have a baby when you aren't ready. Pre ready and teen pregnancies are 100 percent preventable.

  1. I agree with you Braina I think everyone is born good, but if there taught wrongly they will act wrongly. Children don't just come up with stuff like being mean on their own. They are influenced by the people around them. Nice Job!
