Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents are the best teachers. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Sample 1:

It is a well-known fact by everybody that education has an important place in our life. Nowadays, some may hold the opinion that parents are qualified enough to give education to their children. But others have a negative attitude that professional teachers' experiences and positive effects on a child are undeniable facts about his or her education base. As far as I am concerned, I hold the idea that parents are not the best teachers in that parents are not as well-informed as teachers, class atmosphere is required in education and children may feel alone because his friends are going to school.
To begin with, I agree with the statement that teachers have a better educational background than parents without reservation since teachers may also be parents but they study especially for being a teacher. Besides professional information they have, they get experience in this area for years. To be more precise, everybody has an area that they are good at, so parents should not be teachers of their children.
Another reason why I agree with the above statement is that I strongly believe that children should be familiar with the atmosphere of a class inasmuch as they can experience competition, know how to share their ideas without hesitation and gain self-confident. In other words, children can not improve their social skills while they have education at home.
Last but not least, although some people may disagree, I personally think that it is not fair to keep your child at home while his or her friends are going to school and having new friends. For instance, when a child becomes a teenager, he or she wants to spend time with his or her friends, share feelings etc. If the child is not going to the school, he or she will not have so many friends so it is hard to do things like that I mentioned. This puts a big pressure on the child and cause him or her feeling alone.

Sample 2:

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.
