“Children’s Visit to Public Places after Midnight"

Children below the age of sixteen should not be allowed in public places after midnight unless they are accompanied by an adult who is responsible for them. How far do you agree with this suggestion?
=================================================
I do agree children must not be allowed to be at public places alone and that too especially after midnight time. Children must be taught to sleep in time and wakeup in time. The very idea of children staying at public places in midnight is unconvincing. However, for any pressing reason if visit of children to a public place in the midnight is inevitable, they must be accompanied by an adult member who is responsible for them.

Although children below sixteen are minor as per the law; nevertheless can’t be ruled out that they are adolescent. Adolescence is a transitional age of development that occurs between childhood and adulthood and this is a very critical period. Adolescent humans go through puberty, the process of sexual maturation. Although in some individuals, puberty may extend a few years beyond the teenage years, and in some individuals, puberty begins in the pre-teen years. Due to the adolescents' experiencing various cognitive and physical changes, it is frequently seen that they start giving more importance to their friends and their peer group, and less to their parents and guardians. Because of these, influences they might indulge in wrongdoings and crimes like premature sex, or rape that are not socially acceptable.

Most importantly, it should also be noted that adolescence is the stage of a psychological breakthrough in a person's life when he or she is quite some confused and can’t differentiate between what is right and what is wrong. This period of life greatly influence an individual's future life thereby playing a major role in one’s career building, character formation, and personality building.

Summarizing, it is advisable that children below sixteen while visiting public places during midnight must be accompanied by a responsible adult member. --- (290 Words)
