It helps a child to know parents, relatives, friends and surround around us. It is a language to help us to understand other languages. The Child gets the first education from home. The home is the first school for the child. It helps to build the character of everyone who belongs to poor, rich or middle -class family. We must give the education first in our Mother-Tongue. It helps to understand the concepts with depth, easily and clearly. However now a day's some of the people want to get an education in the international language like English. In spite of Lack of money, some parents want to get the education in English. They tell that ‘today's world demands it and they are telling that our child is going to weak than the other students because of Lack of the knowledge of English Language.
