TV
can give positive and negative effects on the children. The effects can be seen
in the children’s development of cognitive,
affective, and psychomotor aspects. The
first one is the cognitive aspect. The positive impact of TV to the
children’s cognitive is they are able to gain their knowledge. With TV
children’s knowledge can grow rapidly along with the development of technology.
There are a lot of positive things which can be taken from TV, such as
information about the latest news to increase children’s knowledge. General
knowledge can be used to develop themselves in the future. While, the negative
impact on children's cognitive is a simple-minded. When the children too often
watch TV and never read, it cause the children will have a simple mindset. The
way they think also becomes uncritical and linear or unidirectional. It will
automatically give an effect to their imagination, intellect, creativity and
cognitive development. The second is the
affective aspect. TV’s good impact on children is for entertaining.
Children can refresh their mind by watching a variety of entertainment shows
from TV, such as movies, cartoons, and other entertainment shows. By watching
TV the children can decrease their fatigue and they will not easily get stress.
Then the bad impact is they are lazy to study. TV’s language is simple, interest,
and addictive for the children. So that the children spent a lot of time in
front of TV, even lazy to do something other than watch TV. Obviously this is a
very bad impact on the children. It makes the children forget about their main responsibility,
which is learning. The third is a
psychomotor aspect. Watching TV can give an advantage on children’s
psychomotor, which is to stimulate creativity. A lot of television’s program
show children's events, such as making toys out of origami paper. When the
children watch that program, they can imitate the instruction which is shown on
TV. It will stimulate the children's creativity to make a handmade. Besides,
the disadvantage is reducing children’s creativity. Every time they get bored,
they just push the remote control and instantly find some entertainment; so
that on vacation time, such as weekends or school holidays, is filled with
watching TV. They seem to have no other choice because they are not accustomed
to looking for other fun activities. This makes the children become not
creative. I can conclude that watching TV can give advantages and disadvantages
on the children. Therefore, to increase the positive impacts or decrease the
negative impacts, we have to choose the good television programs for children
and remained with the children while they are watching TV.
