I cant remember how many times when I was informed that a persons childhood years played a rather important role in the whole life. I cant remember how many times especially when a VIP was interviewed by a journalist, he or she, more often than not, would mention his or her childhood years, regardless of its toughness or happpiness. Just as the famous peot Words peom goes, "Child is the father of the man "! So, I think, the several childhood years are the most important years of a persons life both psychologically and physically.

The famous psychologist Sigmund Freud had once put great emphesis on the importance of a persons childhood, to put aside the the academic debate, I think whether a person spends the crucial couple of childhood years in a happy-go-lucky way has a lot to do with his or her later life psychologically . For example, a child who was maltreated when in his or her childhood may be under the shade in the adult life, which has been proved either experimentally or emperically. As a matter of fact,these examples are defying enumeration.

On the other hand, the period of childhood is a very vital stage for the child to grow up physically,because at this special stage, the main orgens of the body and their functions beign to develop and become mature gradually and this stage matters a lot regarding laying a sound foundation for the teenage stage and the later adult stage.

Thus, we, if as parents, should develop a happy atmosphere for our children to make sure they spend this very special period in a safe and happy way. we, if as children,should live a happy way ourselves. Do remember this several childhood years are the most crucial years of a persons life psychologically and physically!

I agree that a persons childhood years, from birth until twelve years of age, are the most important. All the information Ive read about that time of life states that these are the years that form us. These years determine what kind of a person the child will become. During these years we learn about relationships, begin our formal education, and develop our moral sense of right and wrong.

The early years are the time when we learn about relationships. First we learn about our parents and siblings, then about rest of the world. We learn how to respond to others based the treatment were given. If were loved, then we know how to love others. If were treated harshly, we may grow up to treat others harshly. We also form our ideas about our own self-worth from the way others treat us during these years. They can convince us were worthless, or they can teach us we deserve love and respect.

These are the years when we begin our formal education. We acquire the basic skills-reading, writing, working with numbers-that well use throughout our lives. We need a good foundation in these subjects. Otherwise, anything we try to do later will be undermined by our lack of skills. Perhaps the most important thing we can learn during these years is how to analyze information and use it. These are skills that will always be useful.

Most important, from my point of view, these are the years when we develop our moral sense of whats right and wrong. Others teach us about good and bad, but later in our early years we begin to decide for ourselves. Its also during this time that we begin to develop the self-discipline to live according to our morals.

I believe a person grows and changes for the better throughout the many stages of life. However, the foundation is laid in those first few years of life.
