 Nowadays, it commonly says information is power. And this information was provided by many medias in the world. If you live in a modern  society, you would experience and expose to media. The media is very helpful to people because it is informative and bring the information to people without difficulty. Through the media, people can communicate opinions with society and learn how society is going. Additionally, the media has a function of socialisation that allows people to understand the spreading customs and institutions of society. However, too early or too many media exposures have a negative effect on certain classes much use of media. Children are affected by media easily and it can occur negative effect to them.

 First of all, the media has a powerful addiction of using and children can be addicted to media easily than the adult. The number of devices for social media has increasing and the chance of using and exposing it also has increased to children. Also, the parents are not likely control the using of media to their chilren. For this reason, a lot of young children spend too much time for watching and playing with media. This makes a lack of communication with faimily and results in rejection of childhood activities. Insufficiency of conversation and use of the media induces in a lot of trouble among family and friend.

 Secondly, many media includes violence and it can affect children's think. According to the journalist Raphael J (2016), "the new statement, published in the recent issue of the journal Pediatrics, also tackles about the role of unprecedented access of children to portable devices with internet, photo and video capabilities in changing the scope, magnitude and outcomes of virtual violence exposures. These devices can provide access to real violence that captured and consumed virtually." As reported by him, media has the factors of violence and when children are exposed by the media, indirect violence can be experienced and learned to them.

Finally, through the media, children can implement violence in their real life.  dissatisfied with their own lives. According to the journal The Telegraph, "Daniel Bartlam, a schoolboy obsessed with Coronation Street killer John Stape, was locked up for a minimum of 16 years after he was found guilty of battering his mother to death with a hammer in an echo of the television soap." This crime was occured because of the violence in media. Early approach and expose to the media can induce copycat of children.

If children are approached or exposed by media in early time, ther can be occurence of negative effect of the media. Children can addicted to the media and there can be a break in conversation with family and friend and it can lead to a lack of social relation. Also, violence of media can affect children with many ways and as a conclusion children can copycat that violence in the society. For these reasons, early approach to media should be controlled by parents and children need to accept media more carefully for preventing negative effect of the media.
