1. When should parents encourage their children?
2. Should parents always encourage their children?
3. Do you think negative feedback is more important than positive feedback? Why?
4. Why is negative feedback as important as positive feedback at work or in study?

1. When should parents encourage their children?

To my mind, there are numerous cases in which parents could give motivation to their children. The first situation that comes to mind is when a child lacks interest in their study or any habit, say playing sports. Parents should then motivate them to try their hands at many different sports to help them find out which one they are interested in. Another example is when the child lacks self-esteem or confidence, which I think can be very detrimental for their well being. Parents should encourage their kids to join clubs and make new friends to help discover their own potential.

Try someone’s hands at smt: thử cái gì đó
Well-being: sự hạnh phúc, khỏe mạnh

2. Should parents always encourage their children?

I don’t see why not, children are very vulnerable to negative influences so encouragement from parents could give them more strength and power to stay away from these. For example, if a child has always been motivated to comply with a set of moral codes, he’s less likely to harm others or commit illegal acts.

Be vulnerable to smt: dễ bị tổn thương/làm hại bởi cái gì
Comply with: tuân theo, làm theo
Moral codes: tiêu chuẩn đạo đức
Commit illegal acts: phạm pháp

3. Do you think negative feedback is more important than positive feedback? Why?

I would beg to differ because life is already full of negativity so I don’t think negative comments should be viewed as more essential than positive ones. Of course it’s irrefutable that negative feedback can help an individual be aware of their own shortcomings and work on that, too much of them can render him depressed or suffer from other mental problems, which runs counter to the purpose of giving feedback.

Beg to differ: không đồng ý
Irrefutable: đúng/ không thể bác bỏ được
Shortcomings: điểm yếu
Work on smt: cải thiện điều gì
Render: làm cho, khiến cho
Run counter to: đi ngược lại với
