Nowadays a large amount of advertising is aimed at children. Some people think this can have negative effects on children and should be banned. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

These days, a large amount of
advertisements
are aimed at
children
whereas
some people argue that it has to be banned.
While
advertising can have several negative impacts on
children
, I believe it should not be completely banned. on one hand, advertising can have a detrimental effect on the relationship between
children
and parents because
advertisements
can have a strong
impact
on the behaviours of kids. It is easy for commercials to influence
children
to buy
products
by creating attractive themes. The unhealthy
products
being marketed may not be as healthy as advertised which can
also
have a bad
impact
on
children
's health. Unfortunately, many
children
will be easily persuaded by unhealthy foods and
this
can have a bad effect on their health. For ,example
according to
a study conducted by Melbourne University, it is found that the amount of unhealthy food consumption has increased with
advertisements
.
on the other hand
, banning the commercials can have a negative financial
impact
on many companies and employees. Banning advertising on
products
can
impact
the jobs of marketing team members.
This
can lead to increased unemployment.For ,example Coca-Cola employs so many individuals for marketing and
advertisements
, if advertising is banned it can cause unemployment in different departments and the government has to provide financial support for the unemployed which can have a serious
impact
on society.
To conclude
, Even though advertising
products
targeting
children
can have several negative effects, it's
also
not recommended to ban which can
impact
the financial well-being of society. so it is not a good idea to ban
advertisements
completely.
