Some people think children should learn foreign langurage from elementary school but not secondly school. What's your opinion. Do you think the advantages overweight the disadvantages.

Nowadays, owing to the increasingly high level globalization, people who understand two languages or more will stand on a positive position at this competitive society. At the meantime the question when should children start to learn a foreign language become an open issue to be debated. Some people assert that children should start to learn foreign language from elementary school rather than start from secondly school. I quite agree with them.Without denying that learning foreign language from elementary school will bring a severe pressure not only to children themselves but also to their parents. It is universally acknowledged that the childhood should be beautiful rather than spending most of time in studying. Parents also must spend a host of time to take attention on their children's study.But I think all this disadvantages can be tackled with correct methods. In elementary school teachers can use some suitable teaching methods cultivate children's interest to learn a foreign language, like teach students words with cards which consist of words and pictures. And parents speak some foreign language in their daily time. As has been proved by scientists, Studying two languages at children's early age is benefit to children's brain development.In conclusion, I think the advantages of children learning foreign language at elementary school prevail over the disadvantages.
