RE: The learning journey || finding first school for your kid
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
The best time to nurture a child into becoming what you want them to be in the nearest future is during the early stage of childhood.
Psychologically, this is when the id, ego and super ego begins to come to play. However, what the child grows up to manifest in the future is depending on what you teach these children during these times.
The id gratifies pleasure, the corrects the id and speaks reality while the super ego talks about rewards and punishment. To ensure successful growth, proper care and corrections must be made during these times.
It is a well known fact that there are two major agents of socialization which re the family and school.
The family takes proper care of these id, ego and super ego.
During the school if proper care is not taken, the child may forget their roots and pick up the attributes they get from school, wether good or bad.
Based on this explanations above, I will say that i do not support a school which is entirely based on having fun at the age of two.
Learning through having fun is the best mode of learning. However, I think that the mode of learning should not entirely be fun. Corrections should be made where necessary through very lovely mild discipline (to remind them of the super ego).
A child who always gets what they want and is always having fun while learning will always remain at the id stage of development and will not grow if proper measures are not taken.
Thank you.
