Do you agree or disagree with the following statement In modern times parents learn more from their children than children learn from their parents

Nowadays, with the develpment of technology, more and more children can access to digital products since a little age. Some people hold the opinion that children parents learn more from children than children do, for the reason that they lack the ability to keep up with the informative era. However, from my point of view, parents still have a strong ability to influence children and guide them to grow up well.

To begin with, parents are good teachers for children because of their experience and knowledge, which is formed through dozens of years’ studying and interaction among people. To be more specific, education, working experience and living skills can not be obtained only by one second. Equipped with all these stuff, parents are definately more experienced and knowledgable than their children who come to the world for only a few years. Just as an old saying goes, ‘ parents are the first teacher of children’. It is parents that teach the children how to dress themselves up, how to use chopsticks and how to spell their own names; It is parents that build up a harmonious family for children, which protect them from wind and rains; It is parents that help children to recognize different Chinese characters, various colors, multiple plants. Parents teache us a lot since we are unfamilar to the society, thus, we children benefit a lot from out parents.

Besides, although children are born among the technology equipments, parents also have the ability to manipulate all these electrical stuffs, which means that both the children and parents do well with these morden environment. Technology development don’t affect the learning ability of human beings. Not only can young peole keep up with the lattest technolohy, adults can also fit with the artificial intelligence. For example, my grandparent, a retired 90 years’ old teacher, get up early every to watch the lattest news in front of the television to learn what happend around. When we have breakfast together, he introduces all the fashion news to us, which we youngsters don’t know. Therefore, despite the older people may have difficulties catching up with the learning rate of youngsters, young people still can learn a lot from them.

In conclusion, I strongly hold the opinion that children learn more from their parents in the modern times.

---------------------
Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:

para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.

So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:

reasons == advantages or

reasons == disadvantages

for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.

or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
