Could you check my essay, please? Question: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television advertising directed toward young children (aged two to five) should not be allowed. “It is true, that television and advertising strongly influences our minds, especially directed toward young children (aged two to five), so it should not be allowed”, - a lot of people, especially elderly, consider so. As for me, it is completely untrue information. Thus, I totally disagree with the statement above, and, in my opinion, television advertising directed toward little kids should be allowed for a few reasons. First, it may be very useful for parents. It is a way to show what toys can be interesting for babies and what is new in this industry. For example, some people, that have children, say, that advertising really helps them to choose products for their daughters and sons. In their words they just have not anyone, who can advise them something or their parents are old-fashioned. Second, some people think, that advertising influence a child’s mind in a wrong way, and if kids see it, they will ask about buying advertised product. However, not every parents can afford such purchases, so children may begin to cry, behave badly, and even insist, because they do not think about a price of toys. Besides, some people assume that television advertising may teach children bad things. But I suppose, it is not a big problem. First of all, adults can control their children, and let them watch only the advertising they want, so government should not prohibit all of it. Secondly, such little kids under the age of five usually do not pay much attention to the advertising they see, and moreover analyze it. As a result, even though there are a lot of facts against television advertising directed toward young children (aged two to five), I guess that it should be allowed because it can be truly useful and helpful for both children and parents.
