Are parents the best teachers ?

Obviously, in most cases the earliest teachers people have are their parents, and parents are generally most concerned about the development of their children. However, it is not completely true to say that prarents are the best teachers. Well, not all parents are good teachers. As normal individuals, some parents more or less have some bad habits. Even though parents almost instinctively devote themselves to cultivating their offspring, the outcome might turn out to be disappointment, for all children tend to unconsciously or subconsciously copy everything including bad ones from their parents. Another deficiency of parents as teachers is the fact that most parents are lack of common senses of education. All to often we observe some parents tend to pursue their cherished but failed dream by forcing their children to develop in a prearrenged direction. Ironically, when their children do not follow the instructions, the children will be regarded as disobedient or allegedly rebelious. In fact, it is parents rather than their children that virtually disobey common senses.
