These days, we are seeing an increasing amount of violence on television, and this is having a negative impact on children’s behaviour. Do you agree or disagree?
Watching
television
nowadays is becoming a part of people daily activities to spend our leisure time and gathering new information worldwide. On the other side, some people believe that seeing television
gives a negative effect to children's behaviour. While this
is understandable, I strongly believe that each opinion has a strong reason.
Not only adult people, but also
children who watch television
. Some television
daily programs showing a violence on their TV
program
. Many people link violence on television
with the real world. Children who do not have a mind border yet usually copying behaviour they see on the screen. For example
, in Indonesia, in these recent years children delinquency increased dramatically. They do crimes based on violence they saw on TV
. This
trend makes them become a criminal, some case makes someone lose their life. Consequently
, some TV
programs giving a negative impacts to a child's future.
On the other hand
, we can also
get some benefits by watching television
. By seeing television
, children can gather information and make learning more fun. We can update our knowledge about global events. The evidence of this
case can be seen that nowadays, by watching the Discovery Channel or National Geographic, young people will get a new edification. Children will have an awareness about world wild and know about the new place without having to go there. In addition
, television
has another function. For some children who does not have much time to play outside, seeing TV
program
is one of a best way to relax. For example
, now on nearly all of TV
station has a comedy program
. This
program
brings the best comedian, which last
decades, only can be seen in the circus, into our homes. This
program
will entertain and refresh children mind after their gruelling day.
To sum up, it is evident that seeing television
has advantages, although
it has also
given also
give negative effect. To reduce the negative impact for children, parents and the society should pay more attention to young kids and selected TV
program
that children watched.Submitted by melika4120 on
