For many, shopping malls are great places to spend their leisure time and meet others. People, however, in the past mostly visited those when necessary.

Introduction of shopping plazas to every nook and corner of the country, especially in cities, has inspired many to enjoy their spare
time
 with friends, do shopping and have meals there. Shopping for people's basic need seems like an old trend.
This
 changing drift is likely to accentuate in the coming decades. I believe
this
 trend has an adverse effect on
the young

the younger
 generation and frequent shoppers. Modern shopping centres play a quintessential part by offering various products under a single roof ranging from smallest to largest and smartest equipment and gadgets, costumes, ornaments, all types of fruits, vegetables, beauty products, kitchen appliances and so on.
Besides
, these shopping complexes have movie theatres, coffee shops, kid's corner and

However
, people knowingly and unknowingly are becoming

Shopaholic
, consuming junk food and spending unproductive
time

This
 has a detrimental effect on people, particularly
on
Suggestion
in
 the young minds. They often skip their classes to meet friends at a shopping mall, have aerated drinks, eat junk foods and avoid outdoor activities.
Furthermore
, people's urge to purchase things they do not need creates a monetary asymmetry and put them in debts. When parents should take their children to a park or to a museum, they are actually taking them to a shopping mall and feeding them fast food.
This
 will foster a disaster in terms of our future generation's health and education. To conclude, I believe that killing a great deal of
time
 in shopping centres will become a stagnated issue in the future. I strongly feel that shopping malls should be used as a place for purchasing essential commodities rather than a place for leisure activity or a recreational area.
