Without
doubt, circumstances of young children is important part in society. Some
people say that television advertising directed toward young children should
not be allowed, while others disagree. Both sides have their own reasons to
support their views. If I had to choose one, I would say that television
advertising need to be banned by government. There are several reasons and
example as follows; Harmful effects of the youth development, Accident caused
by advertisements.
First
of all, the mental development of children could be negatively affected by
television advertising. This is due to the fact that young children are easily
influenced by external stimulus compared to adults because of lack of sense of
decision. Therefore, they could not recognize between advertising and the
reality. With this false concept, children tend to have negative habits from
the start. For example, according to the Korean Research Center in 2017, there
are huge difference between two groups of children. The group which was exposed
by television advertising showed mental disorder up to 25% higher than the
group who did not see that at all. These are clear link between television
advertising and the mental development of children.
Secondly,
Television commercial can be connected to the dangerous accidents. It is
obvious that a youth tends to imitate the things they see. Thus, they unconsciously
follow the television advertising even it is violent for them. So it will be
possible to happen to trouble with them. For instance, my youngest brother used
to watch TV advertisements frequently did the same things like actors on the
TV. Soon he broke his arm to fall down from second floor windows to imitate the
silly scene. This is the reason why children should avoid TV commercial
directly show to the children.
In
brief, children's mental development and tendency of mimic attitudes are
negatively affected by TV advertising. All in all, we need to find a way to
keep our children away from the harmful television advertising. |
