Most people are spending their free time watching a movie. Is it a good thing or a bad thing?

#people #time #movie
We spend most of our leisure
time
 watching
TV
. It might be because we are bored and have nothing to do during that period. In my opinion, watching
TV
 for leisure is a bad habit.
First
 of all, people usually feel tired and do not want to do anything in their free
time
. Modern life makes people busy all the
time
 doing things in the office. After a long day, they feel lazy and prefer to lay on the sofa and turn on the
TV
. Usually, as adults, they are not really watching
TV
, they just want to hear the news while they are doing laundry, cooking, cleaning and so on. Sometimes,
TV
 sounds help to break down the silent environment too. It happens not only to

 and doing exercises need to have a balance between.
