Parents can no longer control their children's behavior because they are affected by influences such as television, movies, and other influences outside the home. |
Nowadays, many parents have hard time in controlling their children. Children usually doesn’t follow their parent’s advice and sometimes cause so many troubles. Not to mention, there are some children who disobey to their parents. In my opinion, all of this is because of public media such as TV or movies. One is that children like fancy things. Also, many studies show that how TV or movies affect children’s behavior. Thirdly, in today, children usually spend their time watching TV or movies.
First of all, children like fancy things. Because TV show or movies always show colorful and vivid things, children are more likely to be affected with that kind of media. For example, children want to follow TV stars rather than to follow their parents. In addition, children just want to follow fashion trend which is broadcasted on media. All of this kind of situation shows us how children are affected with media.
Secondly, according to many reports, it turned out that TV or movies play a great role in children’s behavior. For instance, last month, I saw an investigation work which was done by a group of expert at children’s behavior. The report shows there are two groups of children. One group’s children who see violent TV dramas began acting violently. In contrast, the other group children who see children oriented programs didn’t show mischievous or violent attitudes. From this experiment, I realized that how media can be a dangerous tool to the youth.
Lastly, in today, children spend more time watching TV or movies. As you know, many parents work together for living and child are likely to be left home alone. In this situation, children must be affected by media. In the book named “Children! Who are they?”, it explains that children can not stand with dull and boring things. If children’s feature is like that the children’s, who was left home alone, only choice is TV. To illustrate what I said, because children have no others to talk with in a home, they are apt to see TV and it is inevitably affect children’s work.
To sum up, children's behavior is surely affected by media in many ways. I strongly believe that the reason why parents can not control their children is the impact of media. Children like fancy things which are broadcasted in TV programs and many children’s behavior investigation report prove the impact of media. On top of that, because many parents work together, children are left home alone and in that situation, TV can be the only choice to sooth their bore time. Last but not least is that, to solve this problem, parents should ban children to watch TV and have as much time as possible to talk with. |
