These days,a considerable amount of advertising is directed at children.Should it be banned because of the adverse effect?To what extent do you agree or disagree?

#amount #children #effect
During the
last
 5 ,decades there has been a considerable growth in the number of companies that produce and sell a variety of goods.Introducing their productions and increasing their annual sales rate is their most important aim.
Thus
,some of them find
ads
 which target
children
 as the best way to reach their goals.Some are opposite to
commercials
 that are directed at kids because of their negative influences .I partially agree with
this
 idea for many reasons.
To begin
 with,banning
ads
 for
children
 would make it challenging for them to pick out a product as they do not have adequate information about that.Since all
ads
 are not for toys,
parents
 can benefit to be informed about educational products and buying practical presents for their kids.
In addition
,some advertisers dedicate a part of their revenues to producing entertaining shows for
children
.
Such
 programs provide
parents
 with an opportunity to respite from their
children
.
Thus
, a lack of advertising leads to reducing their free time for them.
On the other hand
, sometimes
parents
 are guilty of purchasing goods which are not necessary.In ,fact when
commercials
 can manipulate mature people, it is easier to trick
children
.As they do not have money, they pester their
parents
 to buy things they want.
Moreover
,
ads
 are always designed to instil in us a sense of happiness by buying, but it is an immediate joy and after a short time we become disinterested in it.
This
 propagates consumerism in societies, and many are reluctant to foster
such
 behaviour in their
children
.Apart from that, teachers claim that
ads
 have shortened
children
's attention snaps, and concentrating is difficult more than ever before.Flashy
commercials
 deviate them from staying focused and distract kids easily. To summarise, whilst
parents
 and
children
 stand to benefit from
ads
 and become familiar with different kinds of products,
commercials
 spread consumerism in society.They
also
 weaken
children
's concentration skills.So I think its drawbacks overweigh the advantages, and there would be some limitations in
this
 term.
