Positives And Negatives Of Tvs

By Patricia Connor

there are many positives and negatives to consider when thinking about TVs. Whilst they can offer so much enjoyment to many peoples lives, they can also be detrimental to health and end up hindering people is following their dreams and desires. Lets consider some of the good and bad things about them.

well, first of all, TVs provide so much entertainment for so many people and at such great value. Watching television is probably the most cost efficient way to spend your spare time. Hanging out with friends to watch your favorite shows can be great fun and is also social.

so when you get home from a long day at work and there's nobody around to talk to, where do you turn? the TV is always there as your friend and will never leave you. If you are feeling a little bit lonely or depressed about something in your life, you can always turn to your favorite television character for support. If there's a sports match on that you really want to go and see but it's too far away or you can't afford it, then you can just sit back in your chair and watch it from there.

of course, there are also negatives to the growth of the television market and the media. The flip-side of the coin is that people tend to spend too much time sat in-front of their TV screens rather than actually going out and achieving their goals. There is nothing more satisfying than setting a goal and accomplishing it, and the television has distracted so many people from more positive activities.

television gives instant gratification but not the lasting pleasure that you get from actually setting and achieving goals. Furthermore, it can damage your health just sitting there all day leading to weight problems and associated illness.

for the kids of today it is a particular problem as they grow up wanting to emulate their favorite celebrities and heroes copy their behaviour whether its right or wrong. With such easy access to adult content kids also suffer from psychological trauma that can have a lasting effect on their lives.

there are therefore positives and negatives to TVs and what they offer the viewer. But used in moderation, there is no reason why your television shouldn't become an enriching part of your life.
