Television and Its Benefits - Chastity Emmanuelle / 16207065


There is an opinion saying that television was dangerous because it destroyed family life and any sense of community. Some say that people preferred watching television than visiting other people or talking to their family nowadays. Personally, i disagree with this opinion. I think television can bring advantages to both our personal and family life.

First of all, there are a lot of television programs which provide us with educational informations and also entertainment. By watching programs such as those on TVRI, news programs available on nearly every channels, cooking shows, talkshows, or simply programs like "After School" on RCTI, people may receive extra knowledge which can be useful for their studies or jobs. People can also keep up with what is happening around the world by simply tuning in those television shows. If you are tired of everyday's routine and just want to have a break, watching television is definitely a good option to refresh yourself. Tuning on entertainment programs is definitely relaxing. Take cartoons, gossip shows, quiz shows, sitcoms, and music and lifestyle channels for examples.

Secondly, it is possible to spend some quality time with your beloved family by simply watching television together in the living room. You don't have to spend too much energy or money, yet you can still have fun with your loved ones by simply tuning on television shows. You and your family can have discussions over whatever it is you watch together on television or simply laugh out loud at the funny parts of a television show. By simply watching television, you can manage a good relationship with your family without even having to leave home.

In conclusion, i believe television is not dangerous at all as long as people are responsible enough to use it wisely, such as for educational and legal entertainment purposes and also for connecting with your family and loved ones.
