态度建议选择不同意（更符合价值感取向）

原因，可以从非必要性维度分析，因为对于children而言是没有必要的，因为这个阶段是孩子探索期发现自己兴趣爱好的重要阶段，不必为了在学校受欢迎和被喜欢做自己没有兴趣的事情。

例文

In my opinion, parents should not necessarily encourage their children to become popular and well-liked at school as the primary goal. While it is important for children to have healthy social interactions and friendships, prioritizing popularity can have some drawbacks.

Firstly, the pursuit of popularity can sometimes lead to conformity and peer pressure. When children focus too much on being well-liked, they might compromise their individuality and make choices solely to fit in with the popular crowd. This can hinder their personal growth and development of critical thinking skills.

Furthermore, encouraging popularity can unintentionally foster a superficial understanding of social relationships. Children might prioritize being liked by many, rather than forming genuine, deep connections with a few close friends. These meaningful relationships can provide emotional support, empathy, and a strong sense of belonging, which are more important for a child's development than superficial popularity.

Instead of solely encouraging popularity, parents should promote qualities like kindness, empathy, and self-confidence in their children. These traits can naturally lead to positive social interactions and meaningful friendships. Moreover, parents should emphasize the importance of being true to oneself and making choices based on personal values rather than external validation.

In conclusion, while it's important for children to have positive social interactions, the pursuit of popularity should not be the primary goal. Parents should focus on nurturing qualities that lead to healthy relationships and personal growth, allowing their children to naturally develop meaningful connections with others at school.
