Nowadays, a large amount of advertising is aimed at children. Some people think it is negative for children and should be banned. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays

children

-oriented advertising is a heated debate among the general public as some people insist it should be banned to avoid the potential negative influences on offspring. In my opinion, I partially agree with that statement since immoral and inappropriate advertising should be banned,

however

, advertising can be sometimes beneficial to

children

. There is no doubt that the

advertisement

aimed at

children

have negative impacts obviously.

Firstly

, it is difficult for

children

to judge whether the

advertisement

is true or false since the kids are too immature to resist the temptation of commercials.

Secondly

, the

advertisement

targeted at young people is definitely designed to attract

children

’s attention which distracts them from their studies.

As a result

, it will lead to poor academic performance. What’s worse, some products are harmful to

children

’s health.

For example

, there are more fast foods

advertisement

like the fried chicken and ice cream, contain high amounts of sugar and fat, which leads to obesity among the young generation. Admittedly,

however

,

children

-oriented advertising

also

can be beneficial for

children

sometimes.

To begin

with , they provide some useful information for parents to enable them to make wise decisions when they need to choose products for their

children

.

Also

, some advertising campaigns aimed at

children

can be both commercialized and educated

such

as healthy foods and intelligence games. In conclusion, it is not advisable to ban all advertising of

children

’s products, but inappropriate advertising should be forbidden for the purpose of reducing the negative influence on

children

.
