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.

Contemporary

children

spend more

time

watching TV or playing PC

games

rather than playing real

games

with their peers outdoor.

As a result

, these

children

may have different

health

and communication problems.

This

essay will discuss some bad consequences which is could be caused by the above-mentioned situation and provide a possible solution to it. The

first

obvious consequence of that issue is problems with

health

because long sitting may damage spine muscles and could lead to some stomach disease. It is proved, that for a good

health

condition each individual has to do outdoor sport’s activities. Especially

this

statement is true for a young growing organism. The

second

problem, which could happen, is different interaction matters because during these leisures

children

do not have the opportunity to talk with other people.

For instance

, according to some researchers,

children

under 3 years old, who had watched cartoons too much, started to talk a few months later than their peers, who had not done so.

Thus

, without really speaking contact, sports exercises, and spending

time

with other people,

children

may face different issues in mental and

health

levels. One of the possible solutions to

this

issue is to restrict the

time

, which

children

spent on that kind of leisure by law.

For instance

, the China government has allowed playing computer

games

or watching TV only 90 minutes a day. Owners of computer

games

and parents could be fined if authorities know about the violation of

this

law.

Furthermore

, China government has reduced after-school tutoring for

children

six and seven years old, in order to increase

time

for sports activities. These measures might be effective and could bring positive results in the future. Taking the above-mentioned into account, it must be pointed out that a described tendency could lead to various problems in

children

's lives, which must be solved at a government level.
