Actually, there are some well-prepared advertisements that invest a lot of money, lots of knowledge, and lots of ideas into the advertisement to create a message, a moral message so that people can learn about it and understand something that helps them develop day by day. So actually, advertisement can help you develop if it is a well-invested advertisement. However, nowadays, students tend to watch online content on social media, like Facebook or YouTube, where we cannot control everything on it. And sometimes students can see some inappropriate advertisements, which will have a bad influence on them. So in conclusion, I think it depends on what the children are watching. It is the responsibility of the parents to watch over their kids and control what they are watching.
