Family Institution Determines

Students Success

Thank you Madam Speaker. Good Morning to the

honourable adjudicators, worthy opponents and members
of the house. Today, I as the prime minister of this house
strongly and firmly believes that the motion today, Family
Institution Determines Students Success, should stand
and must stand.
As the government, we strongly believe that this is
true, but before we come to our actual arguments, let me
first define the critical terms in todays debate. The
phrase, Family Institution, refers to the biological and
social ties in an institution for reproduction, upbringing
and cooperation due to blood relationship which may differ
in structure but are similar in function.
Determines, on the other hand is being the key
factor in causing something to occur. Furthermore, we as
the government would like to include academics, cocurriculum, social status and civic-mindness to represent a
students success.
As the prime minister, I have already provided the
definitions for the topic today. Next, I will deliver the first
argument today which is emulation of family
institution moulds students during their formative
years. Later on, my deputy prime minister will provide the
second and third arguments today which are familys
socioeconomic status makes family insitution welldeveloped and the natural phenomenon of altruism
exists within family institution desiring the best for
students. My third speaker will then rebut all the
implausible points brought up by the opposition. Next,
allow me to provide the stand to todays debate, which is
THBT family institution determines students
success because it is a fundamental source of
education which is based on the premise that each
person finds identity, meaning and purpose in life
through connections to the community or to the
natural world.

Without further ado, allow me to move on to my first

point which is emulation of family institution moulds
students during their formative years. Individuals that are

observed are called role models. In society students are surrounded

by many influential role models, such as parents , elder siblings,
characters on childrens TV and friends within their peer group who
have achieved success . These models provide examples of behavior
to observe and imitate, e.g. masculine and feminine, pro and antisocial etc. The closest role models reside within the family
institution and they are the ones that spend the most time with the
students. Parents are the simplest examples of the optimum role
models for the students at a younger age. The students are more
likely to attend to and imitate people they perceive are similar to
themselves. Consequently, it is more likely to imitate the behaviour
modeled by the people which are closest to them.
Furthermore, if a student imitates a behaviour and the
consequences are rewarding, the student will continue to imitate
such behaviour. This represents the reinforcement of the behaviour
and will continue to be reinforced until such a time where the
behaviour is no longer rewarded. Reinforcement can either be
positive or negative, the important factor is that it will lead to a
change in the students behaviour which will affect the probability of
success. Now, an empty bottle stays empty unless it is filled.
Basically, this change can only occur when the parents showcase the
consequences of their actions.
To follow that up, the student will also think of what would
happen to other people if they were to imitate a certain behaviour.
This relates to the attachment between the student and the parent
who possess qualities that are rewarding. The motivation to imitate a
particular model is that they have a quality which the individual
would like to possess. From here, we can conclude that the parents
are the most plausible role models to the students and from that
statement, we can conclude that family institution determines
students success.
Before I make way for the opposition, allow me to repeat the
caseline in todays debate, THBT family institution

determines students success because it is a

fundamental source of education which is based on
the premise that each person finds identity,
meaning and purpose in life through connections to
the community or to the natural world . Therefore ladies

and gentleman, the motion today, family institutiton determines

students success should and must stand. With that, I rest my case.
