Some people believe that television has destroyed communication among friends and family. But i disagree It is my belief that television has not destroyed communication among friends and family but has increased it, and has approached people even more. There are three reasons that i disagree with Television destroys communication among friends and family. Television gathers families together, television programs give us things to think and talk about, and television gives some opportunities for friends to meet with each other
First of all, television gathers families together. Nowadays, there are a variety of programs which attract all the members of one family, regardless of age or sex. For example, parents and children can watch a movie, which helps parents relax and forget about work and daily problems, and makes children have fun after doing their homework. In this way, communication among family members is improved as they have more things to discuss about, and can share opinions and thoughts .So, television is a factor which contributes in strengthening family relationships.
Next, television programs give us things to think and talk about. These days it is possible to hear news every time we turn on the television. We hear about things happening all around the world. Everybody has opinions about these things and everybody wants to discuss their opinions with other people. So, TV news and information programs encourage us to discuss our ideas with our friends and family.
Lastly, television gives some opportunities for friends to meet with each other. For example, in Thailand, everybody loves watching soccer with their friends. Especially, the bad conditions of soccer stadiums in Thailand cause to watch soccer matches on television. This is a good opportunity for me and my friends to come together and to communicate every weekend. Moreover, in Thailand, everybody likes watching news and TV serials. It is a good reason for friends to find a topic and to mention something next day.
