The great problem we face is the influence of TV on children . This problem is common for all developed countries and Ukraine, too .
According to sociological researches about 90 % of schoolchildren spend
their free time watching TV . Now almost all their free time is regulated
by television .
Whole generations are growing up addicted to television. It encourages passive enjoyment . Instead of going to theatres, cinemas,
museums, going for walks, going in for sports, reading books and
listening to music, visiting their friends or discussing different problems they sit in
armchairs watching TV . Food can be left uneaten or homework undone. Instead of a sound sleep they may watch TV . As a result, because of the lost sleep children can feel bored, exhausted and depressed.
Television may be a splendid means of communication, but it prevents us from live communicating with each other . Then we are all influenced greatly by advertising.
Of course, there are some interesting educational programmes for children on TV . They can get a lot of useful information, watch their favourite football or hockey team in an important international event. They can watch all kinds of contests, quizzes and lots more, too . Foreign languages such as English, German, French and Spanish are also taught on TV.
But the main thing is that television plays a very important role in children’s lives. Haven’t we become more passive because of television? We are interested less in outdoor activities, aren’t we? We read less, don’t we? These are the problems!
This problem of the influence of TV on children is common for countries all over the world.
