Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents should not allow their children to watch television.Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

People have different opinions about whether or not watching television is good for children. Some parents may argue that television is harmful for children, so they should not watch at all, while others disagree. I believe that parents should allow children to watch television because it offers them more advantages than disadvantages.

To begin with, there are a lot of educational programs on television. By watching these programs, children can not only obtain new knowledge but also have enjoyable time. Sometimes, studying and reading on a desk can be boring for young children. It is important for parents to provide materials they can enjoy. I feel that television is the best way to engage children.

In addition to the previous point, if parents prohibit their children from watching television, they may rebel to their parents by not studying at all or not listening what their parents say, because all children love to watch television. By banning watching television, unnecessary conflict could happen between parents and their children.

Moreover, parents can use television as a tool to motivate their children study harder. For example, parents can make a rule. If children read a book every day for one hour and finish their homework, they can watch whatever TV shows they want to watch for an hour. Not only do children get done their study, but also they can relax watching television.

To sum up, there are many benefits to allow children to watch television.
