Today, the number of people committing crimes is dramatically increasing. Although each government employs a different system of judgement and each crime is given a different punishment, imprisonment is always considered the most common way to address this issue. However, I do believe that arranging educational programs for these people benefits more.
First and foremost, participating in training programs can improve people’s skills which new doors in their lives. For instance, prisoners who imprison for many years would know that if they be setting free, they will face with many problems such as unemployment, social isolation,.. Therefore, education equips them with qualifications and competence to gain a good job with a high salary. As a consequence, such a career is likely to enable him to lead a decent lifestyle and keep they away from illegal activities.
On the other hand, imprisonment is not a good ideal to decrease the crime rates. Incarceration means captivating the law-breakers in prison to isolate them from the society around which creates an environment with no opportunity to do bad things. However, this form of punishment not only amplify prisoners’ anger, dissatisfaction,… But also failed to create an environment which made prisoners have remorse for mistakes. As a result, they will commit worse action.
All in all, I am one of those people who believe in the importance of education. Education, without a doubt, plays an important role in an individual’s personality and shapes their attitude and aptitude.
