Television, is it important? (TASK 4)

In 21st century there are a lot of new innovation of technology, one of that is a television. But, have you thought about the effect of television to your family and social life? Television is dangerous because it destroys family life and any sense of community; instead of visiting people or talking with our family we just watch television.

Many years before television enters every house in the world, there are many families prefer spending their time to talk each other and having an evening walk to just sitting and relaxing with watching at their television. But now everything has changed, in big cities, television has became a vital part of people life, they can sit for hours just for watching their favourite programs than for having a time to get closer with their family, their friends and their communities. It's such a big problem we have to solve together.

Some people think that with having a television in their livingroom, they can spend their time together watching their favourite program and have a short talk each other between the advertisement section. They think that it is better than reading a novel lonely in their bedroom or going out everynight with their gank.

But the fact proved that having a television doesn't make you closer with your family, it just makes you sit together without having any chats. Every member of the family busy with the film and focus his/her mind to the program he/she watched. Some families, indeed, have more than one television in their house (most of them have one television for each of them) just for satisfying their desire of watching their favourite program whether they do not have one choice.

It is not bad to have a television in your livingroom, but you must be careful of its effect to your life, furthermore to your family an social life. Give more attention if you have spent most of your time watching the television, it's a signal that the television has poisoned your mind and slowly but sure you'll become farther and farther from your communities.
