Prompt: Some people think that competition in children should be encouraged others believe that children who are taught to co-operate rather than compete become more useful adults. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

It is true that now a days there is competitive environment for the children in the schools. There is argument that this competitive behaviour is useful for the students.However, some people believe that instead of compete children should teach to co-operate with each others.In my opinion co-operative attitude is more useful. Ċ Children can get many benefits if they help each others .First of all , they can share experiences in this way they will get more information.They can discuss and solve each others problems.For example in early days of my school life i could not go school alone.One of my friends used to go with me and i used to help help him in Mathematics. Co-operative behaviour develops leadership qualities among the children. By this boys and girls learn to work as a team.That can be very useful in their practical life .Psychologists agree on this point that sports like football in which children play in a team, are very useful for the character and leadership development. Ċ On the other hand,competitive environment can be useful to encourage students for more work .But it has some limitations.It can create stressful environment which will affect students performance.Competitive environment benefits only those students which are good in study.Week and average students even do not enter the competition to stand first in the class. Ċ In a nutshell, co-perativeness among the children is not only useful for their learning but also for their character.Nevertheless, sense of competition can motivate some students to do work hard but it negative effect should not ignored.
