Is study everything in a child's life?

childhood is the best time of our life,and playing is the nature of children.if parents force their kids to study all the time,they in fact ruin their children's happiness.but unfortunately,nowadays,most parents regard marks as the only criteria to assess the ability of their children.children get praise when they get high marks,and they get punishment when they have low marks.what's more,when summer or winter holiday comes,parents always hurriedly send their kids to training schools.yes,study is important,but studying without playing will make kids tired and dull.

I really don't understand those kind of parents I have a 5 yo son and he has been going to school since he was 3, but I always make it a point that he have a playtime. We only do his assignments for 20 minutes max, and if he have a big test, we review for an hour. The rest of the day he can play with anything he wants! There are many parents who will hide their PSP, NDS, etc. during the week days and would only let their kids play at weekends. They are KIDS! They are 'supposed' to PLAY! Oh and I forgot to tell you, even though I let my kid play all the time, he is the top student in his class!

Children need to be children sometimes too. There are times when they need to learn good study habits however, to study constantly and no play time is wrong. Children have energy to burn and they need their play time to burn off the energy so they can sleep good at bed time. Besides, making a child study constantly is taking away their childhood which is wrong.

If you think a child does only studying think againI used to keep my comic book over my study material and be cool about it as my elders thought I was studying. There are so many things that children do despite parents and guardians only insisting on studying!

Hi sasuke, Though I do not have a kid yet, but here is what I feel after reading your query - Yes, study matters but is not everything. Kids these days are forced by parent to study and get good grades just because the parents think and believe that doing so the kid will have a brighter future. But there are other aspects involved too and to be a complete human you must also fulfill those. So study is very important but there are other things like playing games, watching good TV, listening to good music, practicing yoga and much more that will help in shaping the mind and health of the kid. Hope this is useful to you

for me no play is one of the things a children need in their younger days as we dream to be young again we should know that they deserve to enjoy their life as the young ones we should discipline in the nice way letting them know what they need to do and what they don't need to do. we should give them time for study and also time to enjoy not just focusing all their time to study. and since we knew what can be happen in the future of a person most thing that happen we work in something we never study and in reality most people never had the chance to use their field of study in their current work / job.

Study is important as this is a competitive world. Evertyone things that way as that is the criteria with which many measure children. However, studying is not everything in life. Look back into our own life. What happened to friends who did not study or failed in school. Today many of them are working and earning the same or probably more than the smary studying kids. So studies is not everything. It is important to spot the talent and encourage the child to do what he likes.

This is a tragic scenario - parents coercing their children to excel in the school. There are two reasons why they do this. The first one is to brag about their children as the academically best. The second one is more . These parents want their children to live what they did not achieve. So they force their children to get grades they never really had.

I don't think that study is everything to a child. Friends and dreams and experience are also important. if study was all that was important in a child's life, they would miss out on so much. You have to make time to experience everything.

To make studying the biggest thing in the life of a child does just as much, if not more damage than a child not studying for all. If you are forced to do something, after a while, you'll begin to resent it. You will not only resent it, but you will resent anything that is remotely connected to it and anyone who has pressured you into doing it. I know for a fact when I was a child, I could really dig my heels if I really did not want to do something and it just got worse the more the issues that the issue was forced. The pressure that many parents put on their children is really borderline psychotic all things considered. Encouragement is one thing, but there is taking things to a certain level. Studying does not good, when nothing is registering. The brain does need a break and causing it to work longer will actually be worse.

I dont think that study should be the only thing in a child's life, he/she should have the freedom to wander around, have fun with their friends, although study is important i do not think it should be all the child does, he shouldn't stay home all the time, he should go out and do some activities. Peace.

In my opinion, 89% is already a high mark but not high enough as to secure a child's future. A lot of graduates nowadays have difficulty finding work, even those in the honor roll. I'm not defending the parent. I know she is pressured to secure a good life for her child. Maybe what the mom should do is lighten up a bit in the motivation aspect. I'm sure everyone would agree that we would prefer sweets instead of the whip in being motivated. Due to population growth, our children will be encountering harder life challenges and they really need to excel if they want to gain an advantage over others. Sure, they need to study hard but they need to relax as well for fear they might burn out. Appreciate them for what they can already do and encourage them to do better. Hurting them is not the answer. LOVE IS! "If you do what is hard, life will be easy. If you only do what is easy, life will be hard."

who told ???? study is meant to be a part of his life...not everything.... he needs enjoyment...fun.... its a common practice seen around for the parents to do as you said.... making their child a mere puppet...he even fails to understand what life actually is.... I would say she's a bad mother....she should have complemented him...and give him a hug...what she cared may be was her prestige...... thanks for the topic... have a great day/night....

Study is everything to a child's life but playing is too important.Child won't become good by studying only,they need something to play to learn more.As there is a saying"Childhood shows a man as morning shows a day" so its in child's hand what to do and what not to do.We can't force a child to study if he never like to study at the moment.So never force your child to study unless he had a mood to do that.

because with a good education early on will be expected to provide insight into the adult way of thinking and wide as the provision of life for the child later dewasanya the days when it should be able to support her own life apart from the help of others

Studying is important but childhood is one of the best times of a person's life so I don't think that parents should be too forceful about a child's education. En education is important for many careers but there are also many skilled base jobs that are very good. Some people do better at exams and other don't and it can't be forced. It's natural to want your own child to be number one but there are many ways to be successful besides a doctorate. In the meantime, let the kid enjoy the simple life.

Studying is just a part of a child's life. All study and no play will surely be hell. they are kids and it is also very important for them to develop physically and socially. All of these things are important for them to grow wholistically, including bonding with their mmothers and family.

I don't think that study should be taken as a curse, though knowledge from school may be important, there are a lot of things that a child can learn from studying, like discipline, hard work, perseverance, respect etc. To students who often gets high grades in school, studying is not a curse but a pleasurable experience, but for those who are branded to low and dull, the experience of school is hell...

Not at all... Learning is also aa part of living..But other things like, playing and relaxing too are important..atleast in childhood days. Because many scientific researches have shown that having fun and taking proper rest will help in improving brain development and making mmore brain connections. So a child should be given a proper dosage of all these things all rolled ino one.

Hi sasuke You are true most of the parents force there children to study and only study , it pressurize them to the core and even they lose interest in study. For me extra curricular activities are equally important , study keep you intelligent but other activities keep you fit . I have seen many friends who keep studying and never take part in other activities , they have become so much unfit that they can't even play a single sports properly. Moreover parents should see that there shall be over all development of there children. thank you
