Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television has destroyed communication among friends and family. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

I disagree that
television
has destroyed communication among friends and family mainly from three viewpoints which are
actions
, contents of
communications
and the way to communicate. I will explain them in detail.
Firstly
,
actions
are important.
Television
has brought various effects to our
actions
and these facts have enabled
people
to do something with others. These

with others must create

, we often go somewhere to buy what
TV
programs advertise . In these cases, we probably ask someone to go with us. Some researchers say that 50% of our purchase activities is caused by advertisements.

in something different

For example

Thirdly
, the way to talk is often changed especially in young
people
and creates a large amount of communication. If the way to talk is similar,
people
can feel closer and the relationships and
communications
must be improved. These days, famous phrases on
