Everyone has Television in their home. There's no one insisting that tv is not important in our lives because tv let us knowledge about the issue in our society. But, even if tv is indispensible tool for human, it can be harmful to children. To begin with, Through Television, children are exposed to watch all kinds of programs such as adult movies or violent action movies. So it can influence on them in bad ways. It could eventually result the disorder in children mental development since children can get shock. For instance, There's a research that Children who watched violent or sexual movies a lot when they were young, They tend to act exactly like the actors did on the show even if they don't recognize what their behavior really means. So it may make them consider the behavior is right to do for their age. Furthermore, Children who are ususally stuck in their home, spending most of their time watching tv rather than hanging out with their friends consequently will be lonely person. They won't be able to learn how to make their peers. To illustrate my point, I read an article on the news paper about the 'lonely person' who had no peers. They frequently spend their time at home, doing computers and watching tv. The main point is that they have been spending their time watching television since they were young. This case indicates that TV has bad influence on Children. To sum up, even if tv is great tools for human such as entraining and leisure way, It's not beneficial for children since they can get mentally shocked by violent and sexual show. Also they can be alone at all times by watching tv all day. That's the reason why I assert that TV is bad for children. |
