#topic #british #families #televisions #influence #development #creativity #children
These days, there are growing number of
television
 shows which are very attractive and influence to children. Channels like cartoon network and pogo have a collection of cartoon series for kids, In every household watching these channels have become daily routine.
Nonetheless
, some British families have decided not buy
television
 thinking about kid's development and creativity. I completely agree with
this
 point of view and in
this
 essay I will support my opinion with examples.
Firstly
, there are many side effects of watching
television
such
 as decrease in eye sight, headaches and laziness. It means while watching
television
 complete body get relaxed except eyes and brain, due to constant pressure on the eyes and brain it results in stress. Many kids are not interested in outdoor activities because of the
television
 resulting in low or no physical education. Parents should control their child's activities by letting them play outdoors with other kids.
Secondly
, why it is a good idea not to buy
television
 is that pupils will concentrate more on their studies. What I mean by
this
 is pupils are lagging in their studies as they are no more interested in reading books due to their enjoyment towards watching TV.
For example
, cartoon channels provide interest and suspense, leaving kids in a situation not to study or study later.
As a result
 of these TV sets children
also
 stop interacting with parents and friends as they feel tired or sleepy after watching TV. They
also
 get influenced in
such
 a way that they think themselves in the characters.
On the other hand
, many people argue that watching
television
 has increased their child's creativity and imagination power. They claim that watching quiz contests and some logical cartoons help their children learn things quickly. Children can
also
 get inspired watching spelling and education related contests. They will gain enthusiasm and interest to participate in
such
 events. In conclusion,
although
 some feel that watching
television
 increases interest and imagination power, it is very easy for children to get addicted. Parents should encourage their kids in outdoor events which reduces stress on their brain and eyes. I think, children should be taught with sports and reading as they increase both physical and imaginative power
instead
 allowing them to watch
television
 for hours.
