TV is Bad for Children
Television plays very important role in our lives, and it is also main source of entertainment. We watch TV whenever we are free, or sometimes while working, and learn many things from it. As the TV is used in our daily life, it broadcasts many live events and news which educate us in many ways. But, sometimes children watch those programs on TV which should not meant to be viewed by child's age group and have many negative impacts on their lives.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that kids under 2 years old not watch any TV and that those older than 2 watch no more than 1 to 2 hours a day. The first 2 years of life are considered a critical time for brain development. TV and other electronic media can get in the way of exploring, playing, and interacting with parents and others, which encourages learning and healthy physical and social development. As kids get older, too much screen time can interfere with activities such as being physically active, reading, doing homework, playing with friends, and spending time with family.
I believe that many children who watch TV for long hours, have many negative impacts on their health such as they may weak their eye-sight at young age. In fact, these children should spend most of their time playing and studying, which would give them better result later and keep them healthy as well. If these children keep wasting their precious time watching TV for long hours instead studying, it may affect their school result.
Many children tend to follow their favorite actors or actress and imitate them by wearing same cloths, following same attitude and try to speak same languages. This becomes worse when they watch any action movies and perform same actions at home, which might injure them or change their behavior toward other people.
Television indeed can be a media to entertain and to teach children something. However, programs in TV are not designed for children only; they also include some programs for adult. Watching TV too much could make children following some clothes, attitudes, and language which may be bad for them. Too much watching TV also will weaken children eyes. Thus, watching TV too much is bad for children.
What usually children do when they follow their favorite actors or actress?
