Sport is one of the most draws on television today. Some people argue that the practice of showing sport on television is to blame for the poor health of the young generation by encouraging them to watch rather than partake in physical activity. To what extent do you agree with this view?

It is an undeniable fact that broadcasting of sport programme on

television

has impacted younger generations physical

health

. They watch gaming programmes for longer hours, resulting in negative consequences to their physical

health

. In my opinion, I strongly agree with

this

view and believe that youths need to be engaged themselves to maintain their

health

. To commence with, some people argue that presenting sport programme on

television

attracts youths to involve on

Television

by watching and enjoying the show. But they are not participating themselves physically. It has created obesity and various kinds of laziness among youths

hence

, their physical

health

is in great danger.

This

has occurred because of continuously sitting while watching their favourite game channels and eating.

For example

, a young boy mostly spends his

time

watching his best sports, cricket for three to five hours a day. Due to

this

habit he has developed high risk for heart disease and diagnosed with obesity.

Therefore

, it has negatively impacted on

youth

's

health

. From my prospective,

television

is to blame for showing interesting live programmes

such

as football, basketball, which plays a vital role in the younger generation and their physical

health

. These shows steals youths

time

and mind which

then

allow them to stick on

television

for a long

time

. Their energy and determination are investing on watching

television

by sitting which creates barrier not to physically participate in any real games.

For instance

, the online virtual games have adversely affected

youth

. The research conducted by Griffith University has revealed that 60 per cent of obesity among Australian

youth

is due to longer hours spending on watching sports and playing live games on

television

. These activities keep

youth

away from participating in real games and keeping them physically unfit. In conclusion, broadcasting, channels should take responsibility for playing programmes which stick

youth

on

television

for a long

time

. It creates serious

health

implications among youths physical

health

and poor

health

.

Therefore

, I strongly agree with

this

view.
