Nowadays some people claim that television is the root of all evil. That's why they blame TV programs for society's violence, consumerism and misinformation, while others think of television as the best friend and tutor.
As for me, I am sure that watching TV is great fun. It's entertainment as well, bringing much brightness to people. Firstly, it’s useful for our outlook as we watch educational programs. Secondly, it’s necessary for everybody to need some relax after hard work. Moreover, it can become a close friend for the disabled who have to spend much time inside.
Unfortunately, there are some people who don’t support my point of view. They think otherwise. They are sure that watching TV has negative effects on the sensitive children. What is more, they assume that watching too much television is not good for the health. If influences eyesight very much.
In my opinion, they are wrong to think this way. I don’t agree with them because watching TV has more advantages than disadvantages. It's necessary to choose non-violent programs for children. Educational channels should be preferable.
In conclusion I should say that watching TV is an important part of our life. TV broadcasts us news and interesting shows. It goes without saying, without television we can’t get information, improve our knowledge and outlook, as TV shows are helpful for everybody. So, we shouldn’t refuse watching TV. I’m sure, it isn’t the root of all evil.
