问题     Advertising aimed at children should be banned. To what extent you agree or disagree?
选项
答案     Many children are exposed to a large number of advertisements in the modern world. These advertisements have encouraged them to buy many snacks, toys and video games, and I agree that advertisements aimed at children should be restricted or even banned.
    If advertising campaigns directed at children are regulated, children will not pester their parents to buy many goods for them. Children are not sensitive to prices, and do not realise that the products promoted by advertisements, such as toys and fashionable clothes, can cost a fortune. If they are not bombarded with advertisements, they will not nag their parents to purchase those expensive products. This is particularly important to low income families who have been living under enormous economic pressure.
    Advertisements are also responsible for many behavioural problems and lifestyle issues among children. For instance, some children like fast food since they are overwhelmed by fast food advertisements every day. They are also addicted to violent electronic games, which are advertised on television, and playing these games can make them aggressive and temperamental. Imposing an outright ban on these advertisements can help reduce poor behaviour, such as bullying and cursing, on campus.
    On the other hand, we should recognise one advantage of advertisements. For example, some advertisements disseminate information about nourishing food like milk and cereal, and there are also many commercials selling books, games and toys of educational value. Parents can purchase the best products with information from commercials, when they do not have knowledge about the options available in the market.
    Overall, I agree that governments should regulate or even ban those advertisements which boost the sales of products harmful to the next generation.
