Televison has brought great changes to the way many children spend their leisure time. While some of these changes have been beneficial, other have had a harmful effect. To what extent do you agree or disagree

Most children nowadays, watch television as part of their leisure time. It is found that watching television for young children has both its advantages and disadvantages. A child can learn quite a lot of useful things and entertain himself by watching television but he can also become addicted to watching television and take bad things from it.

Television offers programs which can learn the child good qualities that should be in him as he grows up. this includes educational programs and cartoons. A child can learn languages, math, to depend on himself, take actions, work harder, how to reach goals and others. For example, a cartoon I saw when I was young called captain Majid' is based on a football player named Majid where hes the captain of his team and he tries his best to get goals for his team. Other players pass the ball to him and he runs with the ball, not afraid of anyone, trusting himself and makes the right shot at the goal keeper of the other team which results in an extra goal for his team. I learned from this how to be confident in myself and how to always try hard until I reach my goal.

Television also can bring harmful effects to children. Children can learn bad words or to be violent. The child himself can also become addicted and this will prevent him from doing other important activities he should be doing. For Instance, a cartoon called tom and jerry, which I loved to watch when I was young, is very addictive, is based on a cat and mouse fight where the cat always tries to catch the mouse. In most cases the cat fails to do this, however. you learn violence from this, in confidence and inability to try to reach your goal.

In conclusion, Televison can lead to benefits or bad effects on children depending on hoe its used. Parents
