    Moral education involves teaching good behavior and values to help guide children's development into moral beings. It begins at a young age in schools and at home to encourage qualities like politeness, honesty and respect for laws. While children are not born with an innate moral sense, they do have natural capacities to become moral through guidance, which teachers and parents should provide clearly and definitively. Moral education is important for developing virtues in society's youth and democratic values that lead to goals like social justice, equality and world peace. Teachers play a key role through approaches like focusing on a different virtue each month, encouraging community service, and allowing student involvement in decision-making.
