Answer 1

It is a well-known fact by everybody that parents have an important impact on their children's teaching. Nowadays, some may hold the opinion that parents are the best teachers but others have a negative attitude. As far as I am concerned, I hold the idea that parents are the best teachers for their own children in that teaching can be started at a very early age by parents, the parents can direct their children in line with their abilities, and children can be more succesful when they are educated by their parents.
To begin with, I agree with the statement that education should start at early ages, because children can learn easily while growing up. Professional education starts at six or seven years old, until these ages children live with their parents and learn many things from them. What I am trying to say is that parents are the first teachers of their children, and they work hard to teach them in the most correct way.
Another reason why I agree with above statement is that I strongly believe that parents know their children more than other people, because they can observe them since they are born. In other words children grow up with their family, and show their abilities and strengths to their parents. So, their parents can decide correct teaching methods and areas for their children.
Last but not least, although some people may disagree, I personally think that people can be more successful if they do not feel under stressed. To illustrate, a professional teacher can be more authoritative than the parents of his or her students, then they learn some things as a responsibility from their teachers and forget these things after a while, but their parents do not create stress on children and they can learn things intentionally. So they can be more prospering in this way.
All in all, teaching can be made by parents at little ages correctly, the education which is compatible with the children's abilities can be provided by the parents, and the children can be more successful with the education given by their parents. Taking into account of all these factors, we may reach the conclusion that the parents can be the best teachers for children.

Answer 2

Parents can be the best teacher for every child coming on this earth. I agree with this statement as no learning institution can be compared with the parents as they are role models for their children since they open their eyes in this world till they are fully grown up and matured.

To start with when the child is born he sees his parents as his guide, mentor & teacher who will teach him how to speak, eat, drink, live, wear, interact etc. No one will be with him when he is crying for anything it will be the parents who will be with him for every problem and his / her every need. Even during his education days he will observe and learn that the school although is the learning institution but the moral & ethical values learned from parents are far greater than any learning center and parents will be the one who wants the children to be the best in this world and they want their children not to repeat the mistakes that they have done in their lives which any learning institution won’t care for as they can’t give individual attention to every student.

On the other hand, we see that generally the children who are orphans or could not get the attention from their parents don’t have that foundation of ethical, moral and social values as compared to the ones who have been trained by their parents despite all of  them have gone to schools, colleges etc. The only difference between them is parents.

If the parents are not well educated they could still prove to be good teachers for their children but that will be of less fruitful from the highly educated parents as educated and learned parents will have more vision and more horizon as compared to the unlearned.

I would like to conclude with the statement that parents can be a turning point for his child if he tries to teach every step of living this life.
