Эссе: Children watch too much TV

Watching TV is considered to be one of the most common pastime activities among people of all ages. Some people even believe, that children became too addicted to TV nowadays. However, others claim that it does not play a vital role in their lives.

As far as I am concerned, today’s children do not overuse TV for a few reasons. To begin with, TV programs for kids are usually shown early in the morning, when children go to kindergartens or schools. That is why they just do not have an opportunity to watch it. Moreover, mobile phones and computers became more popular with children. Television set is just replaced by more modern gadgets.

However, some people do not agree with my point of view. According to them, a great number of children still watch TV too much. They insist that young ones dedicate all their free time to this activity, because it is really captivating and does not take any energy. Besides, they insist that every family has a TV set, and therefore, it becomes too hard for youngsters to resist watching it.

Nevertheless, I do not agree with these arguments. This is exactly owing to my belief that modern young ones do not have time for TV, because they are too busy for it. They have to study, to do their homework, to do sports and other activities. In addition, watching TV has just become outdated/ old fashioned.

In conclusion, I would like to state that children do not watch television too much nowadays, indeed. This activity is being slowly abandoned.

Television has changed our lives. Nowadays, a lot of teenagers spend their time watching TV than doing anything else. Is it right thing to do?

From my point of view, TV can make us passive. First of all, when we are watching TV, we don't have to think and our brains become lazy. Secondly, television makes people violent. Studies show that children who watch violent tv programs are more likely to be violent themselves.

However, teenagers think that TV helps us to learn more about the world and to know and see many new things. Also television can often present information to us in a more effective way than books. It can make things more memorable.

Despite that facts TV takes time away from activities such as reading, conversation and games. More than that it encourage us to buy things that we don't need and can make us unhappy with our own lives.

All in all, I believe that young people won't waste their time for watching TV and will be doing something more useful for them.
