HARMS of TELEVISION

     We often hear the expression '' old endearments do not remain since television's emerging . '' from old people. We, as young people, say that expression by changing in this way ''mothers and fathers do not spare time to their children and are not interested in them since television's emerging...'' Mothers want their children to go and play with their toys when they come to their mother while she is watching tv.Similarly, when the father comes home, after eating dinner, he takes remote control of tv and changes channels for hours and this time, his children miss  their father ....

     Most of the educated families that have high incomes buy another tv for their children's room. They make an agreement with their children and want them to promise that they will watch it after they do their homework and they promise on the first impulse that it will be in this way. In fact, ın this agreement, both of them deceive each other . The aim of parents is to escape from their children and the aim of child is to watch tv...Researches show that children who have televisions in their rooms have difficulties in their lessons in contrast to what is  expected. Children do their homework superficially to watch tv so they can not study for their exams well.

    Watching tv not only influences children's school success but also slows down their physical, social, mental, emotional improvements. The child puts on weight continuously as a result of being inactive during watching tv. While a child spends his accumulated energy by running or playing with his friends, thus relaxing and going back his home as calm, another child who sits in front of tv accumulates stress in place of spending his energy. As a result, it is obvious that children who watch tv frequently are more nervous  and agressive.
