As compared to the past, children these days spend more of their leisure time indoors with computers and TV and less time outdoors. Describe some of the problems this lack of outdoor leisure time can cause and suggest at least one possible solution.

Contrary to early days, the kids of

this

generation are inclined to spend their free time indoors with electronic equipment like computers and TVs as opposed to outdoor activities.

Such

a lack of exterior recreation can be hazardous to both the

child

's health and social life. I believe that children should always be encouraged to go out and indulge in physical activities rather than being stuck up behind closed doors. Some problems that can arise due to

this

dependency on electronic machines are health-related, like eye problems and obesity while some can cause mental issues as well, that can result in the

child

getting discouraged from going out and meeting others. If the

child

is discouraged from being social at

such

an early age, it can negatively impact multiple facets of life including education. Another concern that makes us lift our eyebrows is, frankly, the inability to restrict children from accessing inappropriate websites. Exposure to certain material at very early ages has known to ruin the lives of many children, already. One possible solution to

this

would be to incorporate a leisure time in school where the kids must be taken outside and shown the greatness in outdoor sports. Exposing the kids to team sports can greatly influence their social life by allowing them to work as a team. Parents should

also

take it upon themselves to make their children involve in exterior activities. Measures should be taken to ensure that the

child

has enough physical activity and outdoor exercise. In conclusion, I would say that having outdoor leisure times is key to ensure betterment. Schools and parents should understand

this

importance firsthand, and must put an exuberant effort in imparting

this

knowledge to the children.
