One possible version:
Recently, we have had a discussion in our class about whether parents are our best teachers. Some students agree to the point because they think parents help to point out their mistakes in their lives. They teach them a lot about how to live a meaningful life. What’s more, parent’s love help to teach them how to love others. So parents are their best teachers.
However, not all of us hold the same view. Some think that their parents give them too much love, and they are too eager to pass on their values and interests to them. Moreover, their parents sometimes expect too much of them, which makes them feel their goals too difficult to reach.
In my opinion, parents are our important teachers. But parents should also try to understand their children more and limit the generation gap.
