Advertising is nowadays often targets children or products like fast food and toys. Many people believe this is bad for children and their families. Do you agree or disagree, give reasons with examples.

These days, tons of advertisements target

children

by displaying products like junk food and toys. Most people reckon

this

phenomenon is showing a bad impact on youngsters and their families. I partially agree with

this

argument, and I will explain why in

this

essay. First of all,

this

kind of advertisement leads

children

to ask their parents to buy the product, even if it is not a necessary item for them.

However

, a lot of families with young

children

usually deal with financial crises after having a baby.

Therefore

,

this

situation contributes to inconvenience and misunderstanding in the family.

On the other hand

, television channels usually promote foods or snacks, that are not suitable for

children

's health.

For example

, fast foods and soft drinks are being advertised too often during the afternoon, which is the prime hour of

children

's time spent on television.

This

usually roots problems of obesity and other physical issues.

In addition

,

children

get bored with their games easily because of the advertisements, and they usually want more than they have. Even though, we can not give all blame to the marketing companies, who are just doing their job.

However

, they can limit the number of advertisements relating to

this

kind of product. In conclusion, targeting

children

as a marketing tool is not an ethical move. Eventually, their parents are behind them, and

this

kind of advertising burdens them.

Besides

, some of them are bad for the kids' physical and psychological well-being.
