In some countries, fast food restaurants and supermarkets give money to school to promote their products. Do you think it is a positive or negative development?

In some parts of the world, junk

to promote their products. It has some benefits and some negative effects but overall, I think that it has more disadvantages as compared to the advantages. The main positive impact it has on schools is that it provides monetary help to the education department.

This

money is

then

used on deserving

students

as scholarships provided to certain

students

, which could relieve the financial burden on poor families.

In addition

to

this

, the outlets sometimes provide the manufactured articles to the school, free of cost.

This

could save up the money used in canteens, as

food

is provided for free, and

this

saved cost can be used for extra-curricular activities.

For example

, new game courts could be built and supplies for festivals could be provided. The promotion of fast

food

has two major negative effects on the life of high-school

students

.

Firstly

, they promote a high carbohydrate and sugary diet which could lead to obesity.

This

further

causes a multitude of diseases which include diabetes, dental decay, blood pressure and organ damage.

For instance

, there is a higher chance of type 2 diabetes occurring in obese people.

Secondly

, children can get addicted to junk

food

, which is expensive and most families would not be able to afford to eat out every day.

This

causes financial stress on the families and the

students

.

Furthermore

,

this

stress can cause poor academic performance. In conclusion, I would like to say that the sponsorship from different fast-

food

outlets has both advantages and disadvantages for the institute but, in my opinion, it has a disastrous effect on the health and the pocket of the child and their parents.
