1. When addressing this question, consider the influence of role models on children's development. Role models can provide inspiration, guidance, and a framework for behavior and values. You can discuss how having a positive role model can help children develop self-esteem, ambition, and moral values. 2. You might also explore the potential downsides, such as the pressure to conform to a role model’s path or the disappointment when a role model fails to live up to expectations. It's important to balance the discussion by acknowledging that while role models can be beneficial, children also need to be encouraged to develop their own identities and critical thinking skills.
