2018年12月英语六级作文精讲：谈谈你对溺爱的看法
"Nowadays parents are too permissive with their children." Do you agree or disagree with this statement?
谈谈你对父母溺爱孩子这种现象的看法
Today, few people would defend the traditional attitude to children. If you recall what happened in old days, you would be astonished at the severe and strict education for children, for instance, old-fashioned spanking was common punishment for children. As a result, while the parents thus established their own authority, the poor children would never recover from the dreadful traumatic experience when they grew up.
However, as you know, things often go to extremes. Nowadays, parents' confidence in their own authority has been greatly undermined. Countless articles in magazines and newspapers and tv programmes publicize child care. When so much over-enthusiastic advice flying about, mum and dad just don't know what to do any more. In the end, they do nothing.
So from early childhood, the kids are in charge and parents' lives are regulated according to the needs of their offspring. When the little dears develop into teenagers, they take complete control. If the young people are going to have a party, for example, parents are asked to leave the house. Their presence merely spoils the fun. What else can the poor parents do but obey?
In my mind, a child certainly needs love, and a lot of it. But the excessive permissiveness of modern parents is surely doing more harm than good. The spread of juvenile delinquency is largely due to parental laxity. Mother, believing that her little baby can look after himself, is not at home when he returns from school, so little baby roams the street. The dividing-line between permissiveness and sheer negligence is very fine indeed.
