Today's world technology plays a gorgeous role in our society. Two ways television can effect on the youth one is positive way and negative way. The usage of television depends on you we use television in positive way we learn more things like to see news, discovery, English movie Channels in the television because of this we get more knowledge about how the world is going today. Suppose we use television in negative way means always see the movies, serials when you come from the college or school. It's mainly effect on the youth. If you want to get a knowledge television necessary but not only this option we have many options for gain or get knowledge it's like go through the internet and reading news papers. In television we can get some type knowledge only. But going through internet we can get any type of information which you want.

In television see entertainment we get relaxation and see news we get some knowledge and finally effects of television on youth is depends on the youth how to use the television. Anyway you can get more knowledge or information on internet. Rate this: +5

Today is technology time and every thing depend upon you that how we learn new things. TV is a very easier and cheaper medium who give a lot of knowledge about our society. It updates our knowledge in many field like political, sports, social activities, etc. In present time every person know that what is bad or what is good so its depend upon their thoughts, where he/she go forward. So TV is a intelligent system who aware us on reality and proved what is going on in our society. Like sadness and happiness two aspect of our life similarly TV has both merit and demerit. Some demerit are such as it is harmful for our health. Finally we say that we use TV with positive thinking and proper manner because everything have a critical level if we go beyond this level affected our daily life routine. Rate this: +8

Science has given us many wonderful gifts. Television is one of the most wonderful gifts of modern science. Television is a word well known even to a small baby. It is a popular means of entertainment. Nowadays televisions became a part of our life. In my opinion the television is a very intelligent box which makes most people of all ages an idiot. From the day of its invention the T.V itself has evolved from a 2d black & white display to high definition 3d color display. A common saying heard by us is "every coin has two sides†. Similarly television has both merits and demerits. Television has profound impact on our society. It has changed the life styles of the people and has become a major influence in our culture. Unlike printing, which took hundreds of years to influence the culture, TV's impact was almost instantaneous. It brings the whole world to our living room. Television has the potential to unite communities, provide information to allow positive cultural, social and environmental change, and to create a true global village. It also has the potential to alienate, desocialize, to promote aggressive and negative behaviors, provide negative and inappropriate role models to our children, and to create negative values such as values of consumption and possession. During the past two decades there has been considerable debate on the issue of the impact of television violence on youth behavior. Violence on television seems to be affecting the feelings of children. There is some evidence to suggest that the level of violence in television programs, films, news, may have led to an increase in fear that society is more dangerous than is actually the case. Parents need to be aware of this influence and should enhance the positive impacts of television. Censorship issues are difficult to resolve. What are our rights? Are they to be protected from viewing things that may be harmful to our own or our children's psyche, or are they to have the right to decide for ourselves? Censorship may also lead to the 'forbidden fruit' phenomenon and the development of black markets. Similar results may occur if there is regulation of broadcasters. Would selfregulation work? One option to ensure television viewing is less damaging to children is to have media literacy education for children in all schools. The aim of this education would be to help children to critically evaluate the images, which are presented to them on an everyday basis. If we are concerned about the kind of television our children are watching, technological advances such as the 'vchip' (violence chip) can be programmed to block out unwanted programs from television broadcasts. Television programming is driven by commercial intent. Television appears to be harmless entertainment, but the function of global television is connected with the ideology of globalizing capitalism. It appears the commercial intent is focused on distraction and cultural reformation. Television has a large social cost. Television viewing removes us from the physical reality of our current lives. While we watch television we miss the verbal interaction that allows for sharing, learning and building collective perspectives. Finally I would like to conclude that watching TV is good if we utilize it in a proper manner. It might be entertaining but nevertheless it all depends on whom and what their watching. Therefore my dear friends please watch TV with a use. Rate this: +6

Nowadays televisions became a part of your life. There is a quote in english that a knife has two sides. Similarily television has both merits and demerits but all people are addicted to watch it for longer durations which effects their health to a large extent. Though it provides news, technology updates but most of the people are attracted to the crime stories n serials. As people are watching longer durations it can affect all body parts of all age groups. Nowadays parents are giving milk to infants by showing them television. Its no wonder that one day television becomes announced as a citizen's right and also as a primary need. Then people will be in such a manner that they can live without food but not without television even for one day.

People cannot really survive without entertainment lest they become zombies. So Television as a source of entertainment is commendable to a certain extent, but one must not overdo it. Definitely, news Channels, Discovery etc offer lots of knowledge which may not be easily available elsewhere. Internet is gaining momentum considering the amount of time people spend on it, however for many Television is still an important source of knowledge. So Television if used in the right context and for the right amount of time is beneficial. However excess of anything is harmful and so is the case with television. Rate this: +25

Television is not really a idiot box as many of us say. According to me each and every person knows that what is right or what is wrong so we have no right to claim that the most television channels are showing the wrong content. It depends on you that in what way you are taking the content. According to me each and every person should known of both type of facts whether it is right or wrong . Suppose if a person is in a good environment all time or we can say that he/she is watching the channels like the discovery, NAT GEO ,news channel all the time then he/she is unknown of the contents of the channels like bindas which shows the programs like the emotional atyachar or ex your ex etc etc. At this time all type of knowlegde is important for the us it means that if there are saints then there are also the rapists.

Ever since television was invented, it has become increasingly controversial every year since. So many programs and movies shown on television have become increasingly violent and show sexual innuendos and sexual content. If you were to turn on the six o' clock news, you would hear about the murders and the kidnappings and the rapes and all of the horrible things which happen in society, presented in a neutral manner which makes them all seem not quite so bad. Imagine how that looks to twelve year old child. Television has, since its invention, always been America's favorite source of entertainment. As society has changed, violence and sexual content have been added ever so increasingly over the years. After all, isn't that what makes T. V. Shows interesting? Isn't that why we all want to go see that new movie that came out which is rated are instead of that movie rated PG? Although this violence and sexual content on television and in movies is having devastating effects on America's youth, you cannot blame television. Instead, we must blame our parents. So many parents these days do not take the time to talk to their children about what they see on T. V. For that matter, most parents do not even know what their children are watching. According to Nielson Media Research, in 1950, only 10% of American homes had a television and by 1960 the percentage had grown to 90%. Today 99% of homes have a television. In fact, more families own a television than a phone. Would you believe that 54% of U. S. Children have a television set in their bedrooms? They do. I suppose that when you look at those statistics it would be no surprise at all to learn that fiftyfive percent of children questioned usually watch television alone or with a friend, but not with their families. Children spend more time learning about life through media than in any other manner. The average child spends approximately 28 hours a week watching television, which is twice as much time as they.

Everything has Pros & Cons Associated with it. But it depends upon people what they accept. So, Television also has some Pros & Cons. It connects us to the outside world & we can get updates about what is going on? Apart from this there are so many reality shows for both youngsters & children which inspire them & create a feeling of compition in them. There are some spiritual programs which leads people to live there life in better way. Television has great influence on our lives. There are many sources of news but TV represents the things in most attractive way by which people can improve their knowledge. But today's generation are more attracted towards the crime stories & other social offences. Most of the crime in our society our resulting from TV, people learn from TV apply it in real life.

It is always say that some show or serials which telecast on TV are makes impact on our mind and makes us emotionally weak but I think today's youth is mature and understand practically each and every thing so there will not be any problem like emotional weakness and other.

From my point of view television has both positive as well as negative effects. But compared with negative effects the positive effect is more. Anything in this world comprises of both good and bad things. Just imagine the world without television. How can we get updates about the current events occurred in this world. Anything like sports, politics, and news all over the world known to us by television only. Entertainment is the secondary thing in the television. We have various knowledge improving program channels available with television. So the usage of good and bad things is based on individual mentally. So motivation should be given to use television in a good way and not to be in negative effects. Rate this: +25

Which are of nouse. Of course some movies are inspirational. While some are not. To the great extent many youth. Tend to see serials. Which includes emotional things. But of nouse. Just all they can do is their time. Even News channels also failed to make the things at their best. These days. They just pick one topic and telecast about that whole day. There are some channels which telecast very good programme. That can inspire, develop the minds of the Youth. Such programme must be encouraged so that it can have good effects on youth. Keeping aside about channels, it is so important for youth to think. Which programme must be encouraged so that they can develop through television.

In my opinion, television as a form of mass media has tremendous impact on the youth of this generation. But whether they are positively or negatively influenced completely depends on an individual's perspective. While we should not forget that television has played an important role in spreading awareness, educating and informing Young India with channels like history channel, discovery, travel and living, news channels it also gives us wholesome entertainment with cookery shows, even talent hunt shows which helps people discover their hidden talents and explore themselves to the best of their abilities. The only problem with television is that some rs make use of it as a platform to showcase false, illegal, indecent ments and ads leading to unsafe practices. Censorship must be placed on such ads. More or less today's youth are intelligent and well knowledgeable and rational enough. They know what is good enough for them and what is not. They are wise enough to take their own decisions. As we see in the movie rang de basanti the protagonists did a candle light rally in protest and in the end took to guns. But in reality as we saw in the jessica lal case the youth picked up the good points of the film and also did rally rather than taking to guns.

Television has been found to be among one of the greatest discoveries of all times for the obvious reason. One could use it for any purpose depending on the choice of the individual, be it for what's happening around the globe to TV soaps to music, just at the press of a button. ! But who knew it would turn out to be the topic of debate depending upon the manner it is being used and the shows being aired on it. A common saying heard by us is" every coin has two sides". Similarly, TV has both its adverse and advantageous effects. It is up to us that what we use it for. No doubt the entertainment shows aired are full of cheap comedy, then there are shows which show how to date like dare to date, on the other hand there are shows test the future of your relation like emotional atyachaar and axe your ex. With these kind of shows going on air, children and teenagers are bound to get influenced. Undoubtedly this influence is not a positive one. ! A new trend of shows aired include the reality shows where many teenagers will to go just for the sake of publicity, they find it cool enough to come and be a part of such a show. A great example of such a show is Big boss which made many headlines due to the cheap content of the show, which was done to increase the TRP. No doubt, we have great channels like discovery and national geographic which help to increase the learning process of individuals manifold. Then we have shows like kbc which help people to scratch their brains to find answers to questions. My stance is that TV promotes both good education and entertainment. It is up to the individual what he/she wants to derive from it. ! The media is corrupting the minds of innocent youngsters who get addicted to the Idiot Box. They fall prey to the misleading ments and ask the parents for all those being d the TV, and addicted to Junk Food. At young age, their brains are tuned to manipulations, criminal thinking and violence. There more serials that spoil the children than the ones carrying any social or worthwhile message. In a Slot of 30 minutes allotted to a serial, we only get 20 minutes of the serial and the rest goes for ments. Many children as soon as they Come home from the school, throw their books and run for the remote Control to switch on the Carton Shows. These Tiny Tots le*** all nasty language and violent behavior from the Cartons, which put the Elders at time in great embarrassment. In many homes where both the parents are working, when they return home, they too get glued to the TV instead of spending time with their Children or helping them in their studies. At times you can see the parents and children virtually fighting fir their hold over the Remote Control to watch the Channel of their choice. The news is not completely genuine, media adds up stuffs to attract attention this way we are miss lead. Politicians play in media. So youngsters need to analyze a news before believing it fully, this holds good for any subject or real life situations. Television has both good effect and adverse effect. At young age person feels confident. He does what he feels like doing. Visual effects last for long and may leave adverse effect on the person. Satellite television has broken all the barriers. Relay of all kinds of program on television has left no room for parental control. Youth, on the other hand, has the advantage to get information and knowledge from television as it is not limited to entertainment. News channels, Discovery Channel, History channel etc are examples of channels that provide great knowledge to us. Majority of young people watch programs that entertain. Television is considered as a source entertainment rather than source of knowledge. So it has adversely effected our youth. Rate this: +24

So its no doubt television provide us News update, Entertainment movies, Weather conditions, Various competitive exams etc. So its a good approach by media to provide home made services in a short interval of time.

Hi Friends. TV is the greatest gift of science and technology. Whatever our ancestors just get the information from the radio or newspaper, now todays generation generation can get that information more clearly by watching it or even live telecasting. But in my opinion, Whatever our surroundings, we learn to adapt it in our daily life. Same happens with us while watching TV. Television has both its pros an cons. It depends on us how we use it. There are many serial which which shows bad things like crime, glamor etc which has very bad impact on our society. While watching these shows they get involved in the fantasy of that character and try to be like that in their day to day life. Television is considered as a source entertainment rather than source of knowledge. So It misleads our youth they are diverting from their study specially the school going children. So parents should have a check on them so that there child will learn to have a balance between his studies and enetertainment. The young people must understand that watching is one thing and implementing what you've seen on the screen is a totally different one. And it has bad results too. There are many sources of news which represent it in a very attractve and detailed way and it helps us to improve our knowledge.

I wouldn't say the Tv is bad or good, because everything that has a disadvantage also has an advantage. Like in our schools today we are being thought about sciences but this are theoritically done. Take a look at this movie "kyle xy" it is talking about sciences and how this particular boy was made. Science students learn from this type of movie. It can also be a means of entertainment it can also be used to relieve stress. All work and no play makes jack a dull boy. Rate this: +8

If one has a habit of watching either news channel or discovery channel, then he will be getting some useful information from that. But there are many people who are not interested in getting knowledge, they only want to their time by watching anything, that may be good or bad for them. So, watching TV can affect a person's life in both the sense. Rate this: +5

Conquering an addiction is not easy. An addiction, by definition, is an uncontrollable compulsion to repeat a behavior regardless of its harmful consequences. Many types of addiction have been described including alcohol, tobacco, drugs, gambling, food, sex, pornography, computers and work. Adding television to that list should not be a stretch considering the ubiquitous presence of TV screens throughout our world. Additionally, the classic vacant stare of the TV watcher should also count as prima facie evidence of the medium's power. Rate this: +7

Mrinmoy Dutta said: (Tue, Feb 21, 2012 10:41:09 PM)
Hello Everyone ! Well, I believe that Youth is the best time in our lifetime to understand things around us which we learnt from our childhood. We have been watching TV from our childhood also. The great discovery of TV i.e. television by John Logie Baird is a fruitful blessing for mankind. It is based on a fact that the impact of a view in our mind is a large. Similarly, the impact of TV in our minds is long lasting. If we are interested to collect knowledge then TV has multiple areas from where we can get lot of information. But, by nature young boys or girls are interested to things that are attractive. That`s why they like games, cartoons, songs or movies. If the knowledgeable programs in TV are presented in a attractive manner, it will definitely restore the interest in their minds. Then surely they will understand what is good and what is not by themselves. So, effects of TV will be good on youth. Rate this: +12

Hello friends. Its really great to talk to all of you. According to my perspective I think that television if used excessively that it can really lead to a bad impact on todays youth. Everything has both negative and the positive aspects. Watching television can do a great deal if it is watched in a particular limit. We have many channels that are casted so that children can increase their knowledge. For example we have doordarshan, and many more tv channels which are their by which children can increse their knowledge. But if in ecxess than it can lead to a graet problem. Now if we discuss about the negative effects of watching television than it can be that small children love to watch cartoons and it becomes difficult to have control over them. They don't do their homework properly a and just waste their time in watching television. But if television is used in a smart way than it can be very helpful and it can also result in an effective way of teaching. That it can be enjoyble for children to watch and learn. :).

Television has both good effect and adverse effect. At young age person feels confident. He does what he feels like doing. Visual effects last for long and may leave adverse effect on the person. Satellite television has broken all the barriers. Relay of all kinds of program on television has left no room for parental control. Youth, on the other hand, has the advantage to get information and knowledge from television as it is not limited to entertainment.

So its no doubt televison provide us News update, Entertainment movies, Weather conditions, Various competetive exams etc. So its a good approach by media to provide home made services in a short interval of time.

Television has a very heavy impact on youth. It is one of the very important medium that makes a youth global citizen. An album released in a country is aired on telivision and a person sitting in India enjoys it in the same way as a person in some other country. Thus the youth is both socially and culturally aware of the other parts of the world. With an increase in number of news channel propagating news in different manner has helped the youth in analysing the events rather than excepting what is bombarded on him.

Television has a positive and negative impact, as we have all agreed. It can dispense invaluable knowledge as many of us have mentioned previously, or it can dispense entertainment, with little use aside from filling an emptiness one feels when any other constructive activity does not occur to the individual. My issue with television is the effect it has on a child's cognitive development. Their ability to visualize images through words and creative thought, interpret it and apply it to their lives on a personal level. Television is a sort of instant stimuli. It doesn't require you to construct an image in your mind, nor does it require you to imagine sound. A scene, with textures, and tastes are devoid in television programs. A child is not required to interact with it, which is the most important thing for children aged 05. They need an environment that reacts to their actions, including people who can give them positive . Many programs on television try to simulate that kind of environment, and it is naturally a very addictive thing, since it supplies the child with entertainment. This may have a crippling effect.

At young age, their brains are tuned to manipulations, criminal thinking and violence. There more serials that spoil the children than the ones carrying any social or worthwhile message. In a Slot of 30 minutes allotted to a serial, we only get 20 minutes of the serial and the rest goes for ments. Many children as soon as they Come home from the school,throw their books and run for the remote Control to switch on the Carton Shows. These Tiny Tots le*** all nasty language and violent behavior from the Cartons, which put the Elders at time in great embarrassment. In many homes where both the parents are working,when they return home, they too get glued to the TV instead of spending time with their Children or helping them in their studies. At times you can see the parents and children virtually fighting fir their hold over the Remote Control to watch the Channel of their choice.

Telivision has been found to be amongst one of the greatest discoveries of all times for the obvious reason.. one could use it for any purpose depending on the choice of the individual, be it for what's happening around the globe to tv soaps to music, just at the press of a button..!! But who knew it would turn out to be the topic of debate depending upon the manner it is being used and the shows being aired on it.. A common saying heard by us is" every coin has two sides".. similarly, tv has both its adverse and advantageous effects. It is up to us that what we use it for. No doubt the entertainment shows aired are full of cheap comedy, then there are shows which show how to date like dare to date, on the other hand there are shows test the future of your relation like emotional atyachaar and axe ur ex.. with these kind of shows going on air,children and teenagers are bound to get influenced. Undoubtedly this influence is not a positive one..!! A new trend of shows aired include the reality shows where many teenagers will to go just for the sake of publicity, they find it cool enough to come and be a part of such a show. A great example of such a show is Big boss which made many headlines due to the cheap content of the show, which was done to increase the TRP. No doubt, we have great channels like discovery and national geographic which help to increase the learning process of individuals manifold. Then we have shows like kbc which help people to scratch their brains to find answers to questions. My stance is that tv promotes both good education and entertainment.. it is up to the individual what he/she wants to derive from it..!! Rate this: +96

When it comes to the question of whether Television is good or bad for its viewers we must first think about how WE are letting it boss around. We are forgetting that the TV is a slave and we are his master. Whatever happened to selfcontrol? Why blame the television industry or the media for making couch potatoes out of us? The television is there for those who look out for entertainment, and also for those who like to know what's been up around the globe. It provides benefits but has its own set of drawbacks. We must learn how to use it for our good. If a person's getting bored. Just switch the damn thing on! What's the big deal, right? It would only become a big deal when the person gets the hang of sitting in front of it even when there are loads of other things to do. Teenagers and adolescents sneaking a peek in the bad world through the TV is the major focus of its ill effects on the youth nowadays. And it is indeed true. So the overall effect would have to be this itself, as we live in a world full of youth population. And to stop, or to even begin to reduce this, the young people must understand that watching is one thing and implementing what you've seen on the screen is a totally different one. And it has bad results too. So these people have just got to stop copying celebs and involve themselves in some other, better activities like reading books or going out with friends, instead of sitting in front of HBO all day.

Television is very useful as a medium for knowing news across the world, though nowadays Internet is gaining more prominence. It depends on how we use the TV. Seeing India winning the World Cup this year live on TV was very special indeed; and the last time India won the Cup in 1983; many of us would have only heard what was happening on the radio as the telecast was not widely available then. On the flip side, children are seeing mainly cartoons and amines today. Thus they become couch potatoes with less desire for learning. Teenagers are seeing reality shows most of the time, and that too those using abusive language like Roadies and one show asking personal and embarrassing questions (Moment of Truth). Also there is sensationalism from the media about various issues like 9/11. All these things adversely affect today's youth. We must not let that happen, especially as the youth are the future of India.

Entertainment is necessary to the health of a person's mind. If all one does is work, eat, and sleep, then he or she becomes physically, mentally, and emotionally drained. Entertainment is a way of relieving the stress of everyday life. It helps us relax and keeps us from crashing. Of course there will always be those few who take it to extremes and live their lives only to be constantly entertained in some way.

Effects of television on youth:. "All play and no work makes jack a mere toy". This is practical case happening in all younger ages. Young prefers indoor games and T. V shows rather than outdoor games. Also most of the market products are aimed at young people. The television takes us to hypnotic state. Also watching television shifts our brain work from Left brain to Right side of the brain. Thus as right side of rain does not analyse the incoming information. The right side of the brain is responsible for Emotional feelings. Thus, this makes us to feel that everything in T. V as real and true. The right side of the brain releases few chemicals which makes us to feel good, which later reduces brain activity and its intelligence. Watching T. V not only affects brain activities but also health. This results in lack of concentration. Also the characters replicates on the younger ones, either good or bad character. Young behave more violently and they become addict to T. V. This teaches young both good and bad things. Now a days, the world is uptodated on T. V. Many things are taught through T. V. Its powerful communicating media. The children are addicted to more cartoon channels, and the consequences are obesity, eye power, health hazards, etc. Thus our children has to be limited on watching T. V and they have to be concentrated more on outdoor games. By practising this, young get involved into society and also they will lead a healthy life, both physically and mentally. Rate this: +20

All my friends have enlisted direct effects of telivision on youths. But what about it's indirect effects. Spending lots of time in front of telivision,leave little or no time for outdoor games,sports,exercise,which has added to the sideeffects of sedentary life style,viz... many health problems ranging from obesity,diabetes,myocardial problems. Even excessive stress on eyes,insomnia are also there. Also in today's busy world,people overall gets little time to spend with family . If even this little spare time is spent in front of TV, There will problemslike lack of communication,little emotional bonding betwwen family . surely TV plays substantial role as culprit. IN addition to imparting knowledge,like all other mass media television can be used for mass education, The various ments regarding awareness about AIDS like AIDS chhunese nahi failata,........." are good example for this use of TELEVISION. Many programs on TELEVISION contains immoral,socially unacceptable matters,which can't be shared by all family at same time,

Television nowadays is just the source of entertainment. The various programs telecasted in the different channels have both good and bad features to be learnt but 90% of us just see and understand the bad features of it. There are many who use TV as the source of knowledge, they take TV as a medium through which they can know the various facts and discoveries through out the world. So it entirely depends on individuals whether to consider it as a positive discovery or negative one. Rate this: +5

The effects of television can be taken as positive as well as negative. Youths uses the media for their knowledge, information and for their entertainment too. The effect totally depends on the mental state of a person whether he uses the information for his entertainment or applies the thing in his own life. It can be said that children mostly waste their time by watching serials and cartoons, etc. I'll say that the small children should watch television under adult supervision and for a certain time limit. Many people just waste their whole day sitting infront of the television and changing the channels, it is really a total time waste. We can't say that it is spoiling the lives of people but also help in knowing the nowadays life and also make dem aware of fresh technologies and products. Rate this: +7

It entirely depends on our mind that how we want to use it.If we are using it in a positive way than it will definitely benefit us but on the other hand if we have a negative approach towards it then it can affect our nervous system adversely.So now you decide in what way you want to use it.

In modern era of Internet, television has less effect on Indian youth. In the current survey Internet takes only 3 years to reach 1 million s while television takes 10 years to achieve this. In the recent survey in India news channels and science, technology and research based channels viewers are less than 60%. Most of the youth treat TV as an entertainment medium. But in now days if you take an overlook of serial seasons there are lot of stage performance based serials which are interesting entertainment and gives courage to do something extra in life besides books. So I think in this networking era television is good, sufficient, and beneficial for youth medium of entertainment. Rate this: +7

Doordardshan, the first TV channel was launched by the Indian Government to serve the purpose of delivering news quickly and spread knowledge among the people in an attractive way. Now we have numerous channels which are just for entertainment. The key purpose of spreading knowledge has become diminished in front of the entertainment and fun. People just turn on the TV to watch movies, songs, cricket matches, etc. There are only few youth who watch news on the TV. It really depends on us how we take the TV but there should be a definite control on what should be broad casted on TV and what should not be. In my view, the bad effects of television on youth has weighed over its good effects. Rate this: +11

Well, according to me television is advantageous at many levels. It is a source of relaxation and also a way to learn stuff like what is happening around the world through news we can achieve that. Youth can find a way to relax and enjoy the comedy along with that listening to the used in the show and constanly listening to their accent in English it improves our english as well. But the disadvantage would be in two major areas the indian music channels and secondly the reality shows. Now a days more and more insane type of reality shows are coming up in which youths are the ones who are being attracted the most because they can relate to it but it is utter non sense if u ask me because it is anything but real. So in the end television can be a great source for knowledge if you use it right way or it can take form of the well earned name the "idiot box". Rate this: +11

TV is very educational. But it is the attitude towards television and its uses that creates a successful environment in which children can learn. Too many people use the TV as a baby sitter. They turn the TV on, go on about their business, and leave the TV to entertain their children. Parents don't sit with their children to see what shows they are watching? They may be surprised at some of the things they are showing on the children's channel now e.g. shinchan. Soap operas are destroying the mindset of the youth. The people are learning from the soap operas just how easy it is to go from one husband/wife to another with no feelings of guilt or how to live together without getting married. Rate this: +3
