I am writing to inform you that your children are people too. From the day they're born, they have a responsibility to make their own decisions and create their own path through life. Yes, they need grooming, and be careful how you groom them too. Any extreme will lead to a problem, but then again problems are unavoidable. This is something that every parent should realize and take into consideration.
Problems in mind, parents should decide how they want to punish their children. Punishment is necessary, but sometimes the situation in itself is punishment enough. This is one thing many parents forget, and they also forget that they are supposed to be there for support as well. Children, just like all others, need support and love. They need to know that even when a mistake is made, there will still be people there behind them. Without making mistakes, a child will never learn. By not learning, we will never develop as a society.
One thing my parents have done very well is realize that they were children once too. We experience the same pressures, conflicts and stresses, and parents should take time to talk to their children about how they got through the same situation when they were younger. It is then up to the children to resize that, sometimes, their parents actually know what they're talking about. This may be hard if the relationship is stressed, that is why parents should be open from the beginning, striving to keep a healthy relationship that has mutual learning, love and growth.
Parents are so crucial to development, and they should always Strive to create the healthiest upbringing possible. That is their main job in life, their children are their successors, and they should give their all to make their children learn what they can, but most of all, learn to eventually think for themselves.

Listen!!!!!
If I could suggest one thing that society could do for the betterment of itself, I would suggest that everyone listened to what other people were saying. There are so many different reasons that this crazy idea should come to fruition, the main one being because it is so damn easy! When having a conversation, more than half of your job is to listen to what the other person is saying, otherwise you are having a conversation with yourself. By not listening, people miss out on the easiest and most informative way of learning.
Once people started to listen, so many major problems would be solved. The first one would be that these politicians that are in complete control of us would most likely be out of power. When people listen, they hear what others have to say. When they hear what others have to say, it subconsciously forces them to think. Once people get to thinking, they are compelled to do research. Once people do research, these politicians are clear out of luck. So many embarrassing policies have been pulled over on us simply because these people have been put into office by people who go with whatever their community is saying, etc. Once people learn to think for themselves and realize that the community is not always in their best interest, they will not let others rule their lives, making society better for that many more individuals.
The other effect that listening would bring about is that so many people will feel much more necessary to society, and even if their initial ideas are dumb, they will continue to think so they can contribute information to other peoples' minds. This could release the next genius of a generation, revealing ideas that no one would have thought of or expressed otherwise. Although some esteems should not be high, many deserve more credit than they get. When people don't listen to someone, it takes away the point of talking, making someone question why he or she is even opening his or her mouth. This is super discouraging and eventually leads to the suffocation of their thoughts and to an absent theory in somebody else's mind.
If every person in society would just bring themselves to listen to the things around them, everyone would be so much more learned and we would truly live in a better and more knowledgable society.
