Today, children are spending much more time watching TV compared to the past. Why do you think this happens? Is this a positive or negative change?

In

this

fast-moving world,

television

has become most popular among

children

in many countries. It is more common at the present

time

for

children

to watch

television

for a longer

time

than a decade ago.

This

essay will not only highlight the reasons which are associated with

this

issue but

also

examine the consequences of

this

worrying trend. There are two prime reasons that can be attributed to

this

situation. One of the

first

reasons is that in

this

materialistic era both husband and wife go out for work and they do not have

time

to interact and socialize with their offspring.

For instance

, one recent study conducted by Harvard University revealed that 80% of teenagers are engaged with TV programs because their both parents are doing jobs. Another reason is related to bad weather and pollution. Due to day by day raising global warming, some parts of the area are scorching, so it would be intricate for kids to play outside.

Thus

,

children

spend their enormous

time

watching TV. Despite

this

, the change of

this

has been and will be continued to a very serious.

Firstly

, it would be negatively impacted

children

, especially mentally and physically. If they more connect with

television

, lack of communication with elders and less interaction with friends are observed in

children

. To

further

corroborate the above view, a Health Alumni Study (2012) confirmed that owing to improving technology in TV programs, these days

children

become less sociable as it was seen rare a decade ago.

Last

but not least, they are certainly addicted to serials and movie programs, which would be an adverse effect on the study, and

also

there are chances to suffer from eye fatigue and the mentally ill. The more addiction to

television

, the more health complications are there. In conclusion,

this

essay highlighted the main clue behind

this

happening because of weather conditions and working parents, and

also

presented some effects which are less socialise and health problems.
