SHOULD PARENTS SET RULES? (2 BACHILLERATO B)

Alejandro Rodríguez, from 2 Bach. B wrote:

Nowadays, teenagers often do what they want to, and sometimes it’s because their parents aren’t bothered to set some rules, or just because they want to be modern parents and let their children live their lives.

I think parents should set rules to their children, because during the rest of their lives, they are going to have to respect rules everywhere they go, and if they don’t start respecting rules from the beginning, it is going to be difficult for them to respect rules, and that is annoying for people around them and also because it is just a matter of behaviour.

But I think that respecting rules is not just a matter of education, it is also a matter of organisation, because if someone can’t even respect some basic rules, he won’t be able to organise his future life as it won’t be based on any rule.

In my opinion, parents should set rules to their children, mainly because of their own benefit.
