2. HOW MANY HOURS OF TV IS SAFE FOR CHILDREN
Television has a great influence on children and adults as well. On an average,
children from all over the world watch four to five hours of TV a day. By the
time they step into their high school graduation, kids spend more time viewing
television than they attend lectures in the classroom. Even though television
can inform, entertain and keep your children company, it can also affect them
in uninvited ways. Below are some disadvantages of watching Television.
Television drives children away from a healthy life
The time spent viewing TV drives children away from vital activities
like school work, reading, exercise, playing, family interaction, social
development and mental development. Children may acquire
knowledge from television both in an inappropriate or appropriate
way, but chances of the wrong influence is higher. Kids often are not
able to differentiate between the reality and the fantasy presented on
TV. Thousands of commercials that are broadcasted each year such as
ads for junk food, alcohol, toys, and fast foods, etc. influence children
greatly.

3. TV ruins both health and study
Kids, who are into watching TV, a lot, are probable to score low
grades in school and high schools, read fewer books, become
overweight, exercise less, become violent, have race, sexuality and
gender stereotypes, become addicted to drug and alcohol. Young
minds are vulnerable and may adopt all that they see on TV without
knowing whether it is safe, acceptable and typical. Consequently, TV
also exposes kids to attitudes and behaviors that may be difficult and
overwhelming to understand.

4. Watching excess of television can hamper child’s health
The eyesight of a child can degrade and child can also invite
undesirable diseases. The radiations emitted from television can have
harmful effects on child’s eyes and can cause damage as well.
A solution to the above problems (Part 1/2):
 Parents should know how many hours of TV are safe for children and should
restrict their child from watching TV beyond that limit.
 Active parenting session with children can ensure that child have a constructive
experience with TV.
 Parents can help solving television issues by watching TV shows with their
children, choosing developmentally suitable shows, placing boundaries on the
time of television watching (per day or per week), turning off the Television
during study time and family meals, turning off TV shows you feel are not
appropriate for your kid.

5. A solution to the above problems (Part 2/2):
 In addition to the entire above, parents can help by not allowing their children
to watch long hours of TV, and help them choosing individual
programs. Parents can select shows that come across the growing needs of
their child. Kids’ shows broadcasted on public Television are correct, but some
soap operas, adult talk shows and adult sitcoms are not. Parents should set
particular time periods when the TV will be on and when it will be turned off.
 Parents should also set study times so as their child sit for learning and not in
front of Television. Television should not be turned on during meal times.
Make television watching a positive process for your kids!
