Watching TV is harmful habit.

Television or other means of communications are great invention of human. With a small compact device, we can hear, see a lot of things which are being in the remotest parts of continents in all over the world. From the first primitive dark-white running on battery television, the modern one with applied digital technology, lively color as real image, is indispensable entertainment equipment of each family. To attract audience, radio stations broadcast interesting programs for all ages. However, people say : "watching TV is harmful habit" because of some of reasons below:

First, watching TV wastes much time and money. For example, some children share most of time to watch TV instead of doing homework and preparing for new lesson of continuous day or helping to do housework, baby-sit for their parents. Even,some of children, after school, leave either having bath or having dinner to watch TV. Moreover, we pay a sum for electricity monthly.

Second, there is a watching TV addict in our family, he will bring about bad affects to people around such as we are followed like that .When we are giving our whole mind to studying or thinking something, another person is turning TV on, we can not concentrate. Some parents always remind the studying of their children but they themselves are watching TV nearby, how can their children study when their ears and their eyes are distracted by the stereo, the moving pictures. They may think that their parents are relaxing while they do not.

Third, watching TV damages the relationship between members of family such as instead of going shopping, going swimming together, one of them just stays at home and watches TV. Or when we are watching TV each other, one person likes this film but the other likes animal world program; so, the agreement may be broken up. Or, in the family meal, instead of talking together, everyone gazes on the screen with many colored pictures.

Nevertheless, there are some reasons to think that they essentially watch TV to keep track of current events. However, the real ratio is few because most of viewers are leisured housewives or children; so, their favorite programs are romantic serials , cartoon,etc. They immediately turn off or slip to other channel if that is advertising film, newsreel, and so on.
We must admit that the chosen films to broadcast are excellence. Yet, they are almost sentimental, gallant characters as Korean love stories which impact on young thinking of puberty. When they enter upon real life, they are isolated or make mistakes.

In short, for me, everything has a good side and a bad side to its character. If we abuse it, it may harm ourselves and surrounding people.
