答案 GRANDPARENTS RAISING GRANDCHILDREN In China, many grandparents undertake the responsibility of raising their grandchildren when the young parents are too busy with their paid jobs. This phenomenon has been the subject for dispute for some time. In my opinion, young parents should take care of their children by themselves because there are many disadvantages in grandparents taking care of grandchildren. First, children who are left to grandparents at an early age may be educationally disadvantaged later in life because they may miss important early learning opportunities that occur in parent-child interaction. It is widely acknowledged that childhood is the golden time to learn. As most young parents receive better education than the grandparents, they can better assist children in their early learning. Scientific investigation has also shown that intimate parent-child contact accelerates children’s language acquisition and intellectual development. Moreover, children brought up by grandparents can develop emotional defects. All children are most attached to their parents by nature. When unwillingly living apart from their parents and seeing other children enjoying parents’ love and attention, these children may have a feeling of abandonment, which may develop into an incurable trauma in their later life. Last but not least, children’s psychological development can be severely affected. These children, deprived of direct care from their parents, are usually spoiled by their grandparents. Consequently, these children are more likely to develop such psychological problems as egoism and egotism. In conclusion, grandparents raising grandchildren may cause negative effects on children’s intellectual, emotional and psychological development. Therefore, the best place for children is always at their own parents’ side.
