Television is it Good? Bad?

                       

Every body knows that Television is one of the greatest inventions to ever be created. But is it true? As a child I always thought television was great. Television was amusing and brought entertainment to the comfort of households. Although, over the years I think that television has a big harm effects to childrens.

Television teaches young children bad habits and family values are weakened by peoples interest in television. Many people grew up watching television ages ranging from one through twelve. Many of the bad habits children pick up come from television. You can say there is a program to educate children. Yeah that is right! But Television programs for children are too explicit. Many programs promote violence and drugs, rather than programs that promote education. Children see it on television and think it's all right to do drugs and act out violence as long as you don't get caught.

Then there are late night shows where sexual content is used. Children at an early age shouldn't be learning about sex, they should be playing and having fun. Next there are family values. Before television, families used to sit at the dinner table and discuss daily agenda.

Now at dinner time many families sit in front of the television with their food in their hand and don't say anything to one another. There were times when families went to the movies or amusement parks for entertainment. Now, they just sit in front of the television watching a variety of programs and movies.

Especially a well organized household Television causes the world more harm than good. If you need a important stuff and it is Advertising at the TV then you can just call for it. You don’t have to go out and spend your time.

to summarize, television has a negative effects against children BUT you can control your children from watching TV and television also has a positive effects for us. 

So it's UP TO YOU!
