Hi there! This is Mark from MarkTeacher.com with another high band IELTS answer.

This IELTS question is all about goals.
Should parents set goals for their

children? I think they should yeah. I
think that would be a very productive

thing to do for a child, provided that
the child is also interested in the goal

and it's something that the child wants
to achieve. I think it can develop some

important characteristics or some
important traits in that child. When the

child has to work towards those goals,
they will discover determination,

concentration, and discipline, as well as
the time it takes to achieve something

notable or achieve an ambition. I think
those are healthy traits to nurture in a

child, and it can give them something to
aim for. The parents can also use it to

motivate and reward their child, which
makes parenting a little bit easier. And

it can help children set future goals
for themselves as they get older. So I

think there are lots of good reasons to
set goals for children. Want more? Check
