It is unrealistic of parents to expect to influence their children It’s well-known fact that we effect to society and society effects to us. Most people are sure that the parental influence to their children is the strongest one. But is it right? From my point of view, it is. When we are children we look to our parents, to their behavior and their doings. Our parents are the idols for us. We copy them, trying to speak like they are, copy their manners and even style in clothe. But all of it we do by our subconscious. I think that we need to listen to our parents at an older age, too. They help us to do right choice, to broaden our mind, to look to some things from other point of view. For example parents can influence by giving in advice. Most of us faced a problem when we don’t know what we should do or which occupation we need to choice. And parents see who we are and what we like help to do this choice. But other people say that parent influence by bad way. For example, they are drinking or using non-normative words. Or they are so far from ideal and children copy their negative features. Moreover the youth can’t think by their own mind and they cope the thought of their parents/ as a result we see generation that stop thinking and creating new ideas. They just repeat everything they hear from parents. It concerns politics, economy and science , too. From my point of view, first of all, we need to be a good example for people around us. And after that we can influence to them. History has a lot of examples when parents influence to their children. Everyone need to think which impact to our relatives and friends. To sum up, it’s up decide to you which point of view is better. But always we need to remember the truth: we are the ones around us.
