them to try harder to get the better grades.

No matter what you are doing in this day and age, you will find competition. From the tiniest things to the largest, there is going to be competition, in every aspect of our lives, so the best time to teach our children is while they are young. If they learn the concepts of competition from when they are young, they will know what it's going to be like when they grow up, and go out into this completive world.

Children need to learn how to compete to learn how to get by throughout their lives, and it is up to us to teach them the proper way to compete. We all know that no matter what we do, there is a need to compete, but there is also a wrong way to compete, and a right way.

There is the good competition which everyone uses to get what they want, and how to get there. The kind I am referring to is through education, and hard work, you get ahead because you have worked hard, and you have the knowledge and know-how to get there. This is good clean competition.

The wrong type of competition is when some people do anything, and everything, to get what they want. These people cheat, lie, and literally fight to get what they want, no matter who they have to hurt, or stomp on to get there. The world could use a lot less of this kind of competition. It is a shame that some people have to be this way. If they just put their minds to it, they could get what they want through having a good education and the know-how to get where they want to be.
