Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Advertisements targeting children aged between 2 and 5 should be banned.
Advertisements, which is ARE an important vehicle in this commercialized society, AND deeply influencE every one /individual in every REpect. If advertisements which are aimed at little CHILDREN ARE NOT absolutely forbidden/prohibited, the unpredictable huge adverse effects will ensue.
Advertisements have negative impacts in CHILDRENS mental and psychological development. To be more appealing/captivating, advertisements generally utilize some exaggerated and unobjective descriptions. They constantly advocate/CLAIM that using their productions will render those users stronger or wiser. Due to THEIR young age, CHILDREN are not able to distinguish/discern they ARE more susceptible to advertisements. They tend to believe that a commercial production can make themselves better readily and quickly. These misconceptions will spur CHILDRENS unreasonable material needs. Worse yet, they would like to spend money on achieving their goals, rather than dedicate time and efforts to pursue their dreams.
Strange as it may seem, advertisements also spoil the interrelationship of family memberS. When CHILDREN are watching advertisements which may include potential adverse effects, their parents are attempting to tell them theIR reasonable and objective views. Unfortunately, sometimes, CHILDREN are tired of their parents' instruction. Ironically, they have to call for money from their parents time and time again. The behaviour will definitely hurt their relationship.
Besides, a Advertisements which target young children will modify and even reverse social moralS. Accompanying these temptations of advertisements, CHILDREN will become more and more desirous of money. When they grow up, they would be such a kind of PEOPLE WHO are fanatical of money but nothing ELSE. Kindness, justice, friendship are supposed to be locked into historical books. This really destroyS our social moralE and eventually disorder/disturbS the social order.
In conclusion, advertisements should keep away from young children. CHILDREN need a better cultural atmosphere which is not TO be contaminated/polluted by excessive/exorbitant commercialization. It not ONLY benefitS CHLDREN and their family, but the whole OF society as well. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Pretty good, but PLEASE, don't write KIDS!
