#television #free-time #people #reason
For the number of ,
people
television
 is the best friend of free
time
 ,which make them sedentary and isolates them from the world before that idiot box , I agree with the statement and will elaborate in detail with some example in the essay. After inventing of
television
 the number of
people
 taking part in sports and physical activities dropped greatly in developed as well as
third
 world countries ,
additionally
Add a comma
,additionally
show examples
 it had reduced social meetings among all age groups from children to the elderly because
television
 programmes are scheduled in
such
 a way that most interesting dramas and documentary fall on most active
time
 like in the early evening when
people
 want to go for walk ,muscle training activities or seeing each other, eventually keeping them home. During their favourite serial ,
time
 viewers do not want to get disturbed so they try to avoid calling friends and family or receiving their phone calls ,
therefore
 , adding to their social isolation and
this
 will go every day,seven days a week, on other hands fewer chances of socialization and physical activity. As
time
 goes they get tied up with the TV and its transmission , forgetting or ignoring events happening away from it ,even skipping attending birthday and marriage functions for the sake of
television
.
Although
 they are aware that they are getting lazy , their love for tv does not let them work it out for good health and makes them vulnerable to the disease of the cardiovascular system. To sum up,
television
 is a self-invited demon in the households which make them mentally as well as physically ill still
people
 enjoy the demon happily and cheerfully ,so I fully agree that
television
 dominates the free
time
 of
people
 making them physically idle and socially cornered.
