Role of Parents and Teachers in the Upbringing of Children

Role of Parents and Teachers in the Upbringing of Children

Both teachers and parents have a vital role to play in the growth and development of children. Parents are the first teacher of every child. Teachers are the second parent and school is the second home. Teachers help the children to improve all aspects like behaviour, emotions, academic and social development. Parents are more concerned about physical and educational aspects. 

They also ensure an environment to develop the learning function. Teachers can inspire children by telling many types of stories and life experience. They can also inspire the child to accomplish their dreams. Teachers are nation builders. Teachers should be able to shape students to be good citizens. A good teacher is more concerned about the overall development of a child.

Parents consider their child as something special and wish to be special in everyone's view. Over pampering actually spoils most of the children but parents do not agree with the statement. To make shoes off parents force the children to do something even if they don't like it. A good teacher can correct and guide the parents.

Parents are mainly multi-taskers they have to take care of the economic, physical, spiritual aspects of the whole family. Parents try to arrange everything well for their family. Presently parents are more concerned about education and the child's future. 

Stress and emotions are not properly discussed with the parents. Parents are too busy and have no sufficient time to spare with them. Parents try to guide the child in his way and do the necessary parents try to guide the child in his way and do the necessary. Here the teacher gets the role of parent of both student and parents.

Teachers and parents play an important role in the holistic development of the child. Parents are the first mentor of the child and the teacher is the second. Both have an immense contribution and responsibility in shaping a child's personality.
