It is often said that watching TV destroys the communication among friends and family. In my opinion, however, I disagree with that idea because TV also helps to keep good relationship with friends or family by providing some ideas to share together.
First of all, while our family members watch the TV, we often spend time with family on talking and discussion about controversial topic or issues. Unlike normal thinking of people that TV is useless tool, TV always provides to us good information and topic we can think about such as political issues or economic issues. For instance, I used to watch with my father a TV program which broadcasts particularly historical events. At that time, my father taught me carefully additional matters beyond what TV shows and also I asked many curious things accordingly. Having done this, I used to try to have a time with my farther and also I was willing to talk about a lot of things I had been concerned like the matter of opposite sex and my grade in school and even more. That made the relationship between me and my father become stronger. And furthermore,since then, I have kept in my mind that my father is my role model which I have to follow.
Moreover, TV also helps to keep a friendship with friends. As you know, it is very important that having study information, referring to TV, specialized on Education, for middle-high school students. When I prepared to enter university, I used to study together with a couple of friends watching TV of education program. While we stayed together, we were able to be not only an adviser for questions about certain problems, but also a helper which deeply cheer up each other. At this result, we had accomplished entering the university we had wished to go. Throughout this experience, I never agreed that other people easily regard TV as a kind of tool nothing helps for life.
In conclusion, from my experience, I apparently think TV must be good factor which make good relationship with family and friends become better unlike common sense that TV is a risk tool which causes a non communication between family members or friends. |
