Watching television nowadays is becoming a part of people daily activities to spend our leisure time and gathering new information worldwide. On the other side, some people believe that seeing television gives a negative effect to children's behaviour. While this is understandable, I strongly believe that each opinion has a strong reason.
Not only adult people, but also children who watch television. Some television daily programs showing a violence on their TV program. Many people link violence on television with the real world. Children who do not have a mind border yet usually copying behaviour they see on the screen. For example, in Indonesia, in these recent years children delinquency increased dramatically. They do crimes based on violence they saw on TV. This trend makes them become a criminal, some case makes someone lose their life. Consequently, some TV programs giving a negative impacts to a child's future.
On the other hand, we can also get some benefits by watching television. By seeing television, children can gather information and make learning more fun. We can update our knowledge about global events. The evidence of this case can be seen that nowadays, by watching the Discovery Channel or National Geographic, young people will get a new edification. Children will have an awareness about world wild and know about the new place without having to go there. In addition, television has another function. For some children who does not have much time to play outside, seeing TV program is one of a best way to relax. For example, now on nearly all of TV station has a comedy program. This program brings the best comedian, which last decades, only can be seen in the circus, into our homes. This program will entertain and refresh children mind after their gruelling day.
To sum up, it is evident that seeing television has advantages, although it has also given also give negative effect. To reduce the negative impact for children, parents and the society should pay more attention to young kids and selected TV program that children watched.
