There are different opinions about whether Television has negative effects on communication among familes and friends. Some people say that Television is detrimental for our communication because we are having less time talking with our families and friends because we are watching Television instead of communicating with each other. However I strongly believe that Television helped us to communicate with families and friends. In addition, it is not the television that destroyed communication among friends and family, our busy life is the one which decreased the time we spend talking with close ones.
First, television enabled us to communicate with each other more easily. In daily life, we tend to talk about what we saw on television when we meet friends or family.Television gives us the common issues that we can share with each other. By sharing ideas about common things that were on television program , we tend to get closer to one another. For examample, me and my family like to watch drama on monday and thuesday. After watching the television, we share our feelings and opinions about the program. By sharing their feelings about the common issue, we can feel the sense of unity.
Second, the cause of less time spending with familiy and frined is not the television. It is our busy life that made us to communicate lessly with the close ones. We are living in fast-paced society and we are busy studying and working all day. Therefore, we have less time to communicate with families and friends. To illustrate, me and my sister get up 7 o clock in the morning and spend all day working untill 5 o clock in the afternoon. When finished working, I go to the library to study, so I don't even have a time to watch television at night. This shows that it is not the television made our life seem isolated with our family and friends.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that television helpd us to communicated with others and it is not the television made us to have less time communicate with family and friends. 32분! |
