More and more children are watching TV all days during some hours. In Spain, 98% of the people live in a house with a TV. According to a university’s study, the numbers of hours in front of the television set increase due to the children. Everyone thinks that TV is bad and others are not sure about it. Then, some confused people are asking:
Is TV good or bad for my children?
On the one hand, many parents turn on the television in their free time because it is a good way of entertainment or for relaxing them and their children. They are astounding to the cartoons and the shine and colours of the TV screen.
On the other hand, some scientists and some parents believe that television is dangerous, especially for babies and children.
According to the Spanish medical doctors, the TV can cause some health problems. For example, since 3 years old, Juan, a Spanish child has usually watched TV and he ate popcorns or chocolate in the sofa all afternoon until his parents go back home. Later, when he was seven years he had eye problems. Also, he was fat because he didn’t practise any sport and he ate fast food all days. The only fun for him was to be sitting and watching TV.
The children can be exposed to violence and bad words in TV publicity, action movies and reality shows programmes. Then they tend to imitate.
The parents must control what their sons watch in TV and put some rules for a good behaviour.
In conclusion, I disagree that TV is good for children because it may produce problems.However, it is a good way for entertainment.
