There is a cliche saying that parents are the best teachers for children-that is to say, from we were born on, we would be greatly influenced by our parents, including our behaviors, morality and emotion express etc. On the other hand, children-caring is a time-consuming work that requires our parents equipped with smart brain and much patience. However, this cliche is not always correct under such a fast changing world and it is not wise for parents to help their children finish their homework. By contrast, they should encourage children to do the homework independently. To start with, our parents are no more competent for helping their children with homework. Time flies, the knowledge our parents acquired from school in the past isn't enough to teach children. Moreover, nowadays children need to learn more complex and advanced technologies and science to keep pace with the ever-increasing development of our society. For example, our parents might never figure out how to use a computer to search information they need or just send an e-mail to their friends when they studied in school time, let alone conduct some repair to handle the computer. Worse yet, our parents even had no access to computers. Consequently, our parents' knowledge is outdated and obsolete to some extent, at least for coaching their children. Provided that they can deal with the obsolete knowledge problem, the inconsistent teaching method between the teachers and parents also impedes the implementation of that. In terms of this discrepancy, the teachers would rather our parents do nothing than do them a favor nominally, but actually, our parents confuse the children because of the difference existed between the approach ways. In conclusion, the incompetence of our parents’ knowledge and discrepancy between methods have already precluded our parents to help children finish their homework. Therefore, parents should encourage their children to do their homework independently.
