Nowadays, we have been living in a modern world where increasingly people are more interconnected.
Besides
that,
children
have spent more time around technologies
such
as television. I totally against
children
having no control to watch
TV
,
however
, should be vital for parents to adapt to
this
new scenario and create a balance between responsibilities and fun moments. Let's discuss both sides in
this
essay.
Firstly
, technologies
such
as Netflix, Youtube, and social media offer many programs for youth that take their attention.
For example
, when
children
watch television without control it impacts into academic life and has less capability to learn essential information specifically in school, by the way, they are students and spend many hours at school. As consequence, in an article written by Grow Up magazine, around 60% of students are in trouble learning subjects
such
as math, geography, history and English. So, the explanation above brings up the advantages for those
children
who spend so many hours in front of the
tv
.
On the other hand
, like everything in our life, watching
tv
could bring some advantages as well, and according to my personal experience, some attractions by Netflix offer academic efforts,
such
as movies and
tv
series where provide teaching them spelling letters and creating phrases correctly.
For instance
, my little boy learned all syllables from the alphabet only by watching kids' movies on Netflix, and of course, practising with us.
Additionally
, my oldest daughter speaks English and Spanish just studying and training using videos from Youtube channels.
Finally
, there isn't a right side to choose from, the secret is in the balance, so, parents must control the kids' time in front of the
tv
and other technologies
such
as iPad, smartphones, and so.
Thus
, that's important to try to take the best from
TV
and
this
modern world, and propose it for kids.
