These days, many people say that television and movie have positive influences on young people’s behavior. However, I believe that television and movie give children negative effects rather that give positive one. The first reason is that, television and movie make the young progressive. Moreover, the materials make children inactive.
Above all, since television causes our kids to behave violent, television and movie are not beneficial to develop children’s character. Television composed of stimulus components to attract the public. Stimulus contents usually involve sexual and violent stories. Television and movie which contain these adult’s stories can give negative impact on children’s mental. Children, because they are so young to make right decision, do aggressive behavior imitating the scene on the television screen. According to a study, comparing children who watch television more than one hour every day with children who do not watch television, children who watch television show higher opportunity to commit a crime than the children who do not watch TV do. Children unconsciously commit the crime because of the scene of violence and sexuality on the screen.
In addition, television make people do not move actively. The screen materials show the funny and amused programs to catch the audiences. To show the attractive stories, children spend long time sitting in front of the television. This leads children to non-active and to be familiar with the sitting and watching. Without movement, it can cause unhealthy and lack of the social skills. Take my cousin’s experience, he has loved to watch movie and television all day long. He watched the screen more than five hours a day. He did not move at all except for the moment using the remote control. As a result, his muscles are weaken and came to be not able to walk. Also, since he did not have any friends, television was the only thing that played with him.
In conclusion, television should be considered a negative effecter to children. By watching TV, Children came to do reckless behavior such as rubbing and packing. Besides, it makes young people inactive and cause social and health problems. For theses reason, watching movie and television should not be regarded as giving positive effects on kids. |
