There has been contentious debates over the consequences of the time children spent on television, videos and computer games. Some people believe that it can positively affect some children's abilities, while others argue that it might lead to detrimental consequences on them. Despite the differing views, I am inclined to believe, that either points of views are equally correct since these activities tend to foster creativity or memory, to name a few. Conversely, the children who make an abussive use of these activities are more likely to develop fewer social skills or some other cognitive skills.
