Nowadays, a large amount of advertising is aimed at children, so some people think there are lots of negative effects on children, and should ban it. To what extent you agree or disagree?

These days many commercials are designed to influence kids and over the years
this
trend has become a market strategy for companies. In my opinion, it has negative impacts on
children
,
thus
I agree to a larger extent with the fact that it must be stopped and to support my stance points are discussed in following paragraphs.
To begin
with, those who opine that
such
ads should not be banned assert that whether to buy the things or not that are shown in advertisements is a matter of personal choice of parents and they can simply refuse if they consider any of the
products
appeared in the advert is not good for their buds.
Hence
, there is no need to ban ads .
On the other hand
, people who consider it a negative trend assert that
such
announcements are promoting unhealthy eatable. Admittedly,
children
opt to go for food that poses health hazards because they have seen an attractive commercial about it. To illustrate, sales of
such
companies have increased many-folds,whose
products
are of sub-standard but they have spent handsome money on promoting those
products
.
Therefore
, authorities must act in all possible means to halt
such
business practices.
Furthermore
,
such
ad films are putting a financial burden on parents by making
children
stubborn. As a matter of fact, kids usually demand
products
shown in an advert without considering how useful it is and ,usually
such
items are costly to buy.
For example
, there is an increase in the outflow of funds by 20 -30 per cent just to buy stuff for kiddos.
Thus
, it affects families financially
also
, so government should ban
such
advertisements. In conclusion, to some ,extent it can be said that it is a matter of choice to own any of the
products
featured in commercials or not but more
importantly
Add a comma
,importantly
show examples
it is spoiling eating habits and making
children
more adamant for wrong reasons.
