Some people think that a sense of 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 considered by some that children should learn to use a sense of competition, for the reason that this is a method to prepare individuals for the real world, which is exigent. Conversely, others think that students who are taught to co-operate will be more useful adults. In my opinion, the new generation is more aware about helping other people, so this is the moment for making a change to encourage children to get used to cooperation. The last generation was concerned about obtaining material wealth, which was possible to get to a high level of ambition. This feeling has as consequence that people become so competitive, which as a result is a selfish and individualistic society. Likewise, this behaviour has a bad influence on the health’s people, because it produces stress, which can create other illnesses such as heart attack or stomach problems. For the previous, I disagree with children, encourage to have a sense of competition. On the other hand, millennial have had a change of mentality which evolved to be more cooperative and have had great results. For example, the new generation worries about their personal development, which is cultivated, thought of help, solidarity and cooperation. Those feelings have a positive input in us, due to the level of happiness is higher. For this reason, I think that is a good option to learn since childhood to be more cooperative. In conclusion, there are two positions about teaching behavior in children. I agree with encouraging attitudes such as help and solidarity, because in my opinion a cooperative society has a more advanced than a competitive one.
