Many parents and day care providers have a huge panic attack when they walk two feet into a different room where their children or the kids they are looking after have somehow found a Crayola crayon or other writing utensil, sometimes as unlucky as a permanent marker, and have drawn scribbles all over the walls and furniture with it which will leave you having to scrub the mess out yourself later.
This generally results in an immediate removal of the writing utensil and the kid learning that he or she cannot do this, as it is not good. Well, the ethical question of the day is whether or not this could be a good thing if you look deeper into the thought of the child.
The kids are drawing and are expressing their creativity. If you have ever visited the largest cities in New York to look up graffiti art, it is 9 times out of 10 the best looking artwork that you have seen. Another prime example would be Google. I highly suggest you visit Google right now and Google "graffiti", "graffiti art", and so on. You will find some of the greatest drawings you have ever seen, and all of these were just an act of someone's emotion. Well, these graffiti artists had to start somewhere, so why not be able to express and expand their graffiti drawing skills when they are just toddlers?
Can you imagine how happy your kid would be if they were allowed to graffiti on anything they wanted without fear of being punished or having to clean it up? If you were allowed to express your creativity in the art of drawing from a very young age, I am almost positive that you would grow up with a better knowledge of drawing and be able to do better in your art classes and have it be a lot more fun.
Whether or not you agree with the ethical question of whether it can be beneficial or not to allow your child to draw over all of your expensive walls and furniture, that problem has already been solved. Out on the market today are many toys that are pens which you can write with what is dubbed "invisible ink" as it does not show up without having the correct paper or lighting, depending on the kind of product you buy. I for one agree that a child being involved in the art at an early age is hugely beneficial.
