Has TV distroyed communication among friends and family?
We often hear some parents complain that their children spend
hours before the little television screen, ignoring their study,
outdoors activities and even their family. These kids are indifferent
to nearly everything including communication with their friends and
family. So I totally agree with the statement that television has
destroyed communication among friends and family. The reasons
are presented below.
There is no denying that television has shortened the time we spend
on communication with friends and family. Now there are so many
long series of players. Once you see the first series, you cannot tear
yourself away from the play. The result is you spend more and
more time on television. Consequently you spend less and less time
on communication with friends and family.
Another reason why I agree with the statement is that television is of
no use to
communication skills. Television is an one-way communication.
You watch it, but you do not respond to it or communicate with it.
That is to say, you cannot improve your communication skills by
television.
Finally, television is especially harmful to children when it comes to
communication with friends and family. The example I given at the
beginning of this article demonstrates the reason fully. Children are
not mature enough to control their behavior. Parents should lead
them in the correct direction. Parents encourage them to participate
in outdoors activities with their friends.
Based on the above discussion, I agree with the opinion that television
has destroyed communication among friends and family.
