二、思路解析

同学们在审题时候，要注意题目其实给出了两个观点：A family has a great influence on children's development和外界影响>家庭教育。前者如果要反对的话，需要论证家庭对孩子影响不大，这一点无法论证的。因此这道题目需要讨论的是后一句的比较内容：外界影响>家庭影响。

对此，我们建议持反对态度，谁影响更大是要根据实际情况来看。这里要提醒下，题目只是说影响，没说影响是正面还是负面的，因此同学们在讨论的时候不要去比较正面和负面。下面小新带大家梳理下，家庭和外界分别会如何对孩子造成影响。

我们先来看家庭的影响。时间上来说，家庭是孩子最早接触的环境，也是孩子在成长过程中相处时间最多的环境，特别是在上学之前，几乎全部时间都是在家中度过的。而这段时间又是其性格、自尊心、是非观、价值观等建立的主要阶段，孩子通过模仿父母长辈的行为来学习，而家庭对孩子的教育态度也会很大程度上会影响孩子的未来。父母长辈如果采用积极健康的教育，对孩子则会产生正面影响。而如果采用了错误的教育手段或是因为各种原因导致家庭教育缺失，对孩子则会产生一种消极的影响。

然后我们来看外部影响，主要会来自于三方面：老师、学校和同学朋友。老师负责教授孩子专业知识，对孩子的智力发育、知识积累和逻辑培养等起到了重要作用。学校为孩子锻炼交际能力、团队意识等提供了环境。而同学朋友则会产生许多交流，他们会产生同样的兴趣爱好、话题交流甚至相互建立了正面或负面的榜样。

因此，我们可以看到，对于孩子来说，家庭和外部影响孰轻孰重是很难比较的，两者很大程度上无法互相替代。如果非要比较的话，只能说对于家庭关系比较亲密的孩子来说，更多的会受到家庭带来的影响。反之，孩子和外部环境接触更多或是寻求情感寄托，也就更容易受到外部的影响。

三、提纲

四、高分范文案例

There has been a prevailing opinion that children are more likely to be influenced by other people instead of their parents. From my perspective, I tend to say it is groundless to jump to a conclusion without scrutinizing all relative factors that might impact the inference.

Superficially, it seems plausible why some people take it for granted that teenagers are susceptible to others’ opinions rather than taking advices from their family members. From the perspective of the advocates of this, many children, particularly those in their adolescence, prefer to share their feelings and thoughts with classmates or even strangers in virtual world. This is either because of the increasing gap between generations with the growth of age, or due to the lack of accompany of their working parents. In this sense, young minds tend to turn to peers for emotional communication, which might influence their mentality during the essential period of their development and even the rest of their lives.

Nevertheless, although the phenomenon mentioned above might be true in some cases, I do not think it is justified enough to lead to the assertion that the relevance with families is eclipsed by that from others: who plays a more important role in children’s development is a problem of great complexity that hinges on various determinants, such as the emotional bond between children and their parents, and the education they are provided. For those families in which there are close ties between all members, children would be less likely to seek emotional support from outside. Let’s not forget either that there are growing number of children are brought up in family schooling instead of public education, which means that they do not have the same access to the impacts from peers or teachers as their counterpart studying in traditional schools.

In conclusion, whether parents or other individuals exert more influences on children’s lives is not an either-or problem, whereas the answer differs with individuals in terms of different premises.
