Some parents want their children to read only serious educational books at all times, and they think it is a waste of time to read any entertainments books.
What is your opinion about this?
It is true that many parents tend to censor and control what their children read. Entertaining books such as magazine, novels are strictly prohibited, and only textbooks and other educational books are allowed. While it is necessary to put more emphasis on those books that could teach children, I completely disagree that reading for pleasure and fun is a waste of time.
There is no doubt that it is extremely important for children to read for knowledge and skills. The educational content covered in the textbooks could equip them with useful knowledge such as mathematics, history, and geology. By reading them, children could gradually gain wisdom and improve critical thinking skills which is not only necessary for schooling, but also plays a key part in future job hunting process. For example, if a child read extensively about history, he probably would do well in history class since he had already read most of the materials covered in that course.
I believe that reading for fun is definitely not a waste of time. Firstly, reading is a source of joy for many stressed pupils. They have already suffered a lot from heavy school burdens. And they could release stress and energy by reading comic books and sports magazines. In addition, they might meet new friends with similar taste in books. Secondly, leisure books, sometimes, could be educational. They could act as supplemental materials for daily study. Besides, Children could cultivate their creativity and imagination when reading books like science fictions and novels. Take me for an example,I still could not forget the first time that I read 'Harry Potter'. The magical world in this book blew my mind off.
I even write a small novel based on the this book and scored top in the writing competition.
In conclusion, although we should focus on serious reading materials. I hold the view that it is absurd for parents to deny their kids the freedom of choosing what they read, and leisure books can bring children much fun and enjoyment, and contribute to their comprehensive developments.
