It is good for kids or parents who watch t.v. with their kids.
This is not an easy question to answer, because not every child reacts to TV and movies the same way. Further, it is not really an "either/or" situation-- children may be influenced by film and TV, but also influenced by their parents. That said, we live in a media-driven culture, where kids have access to a wide range of choices-- TV, radio, internet, video games, movies, magazines, etc etc. It is very challenging to be a parent, given all of the media in our culture. Some parents try to restrict what their kids watch on TV, but there are many ways kids can watch inappropriate content (at a friend's house, via the internet, etc) and this makes policing children's viewing habits very difficult. As an educator, I agree that children can indeed be influenced by what they see on TV (not just violence-- kids can see super-thin models; programs that seem to glorify rude behavior; or make teen pregnancy look glamorous; or programs that have too many commercials for products kids really don't need). But there is no substitute for a strong relationship between parents and children. Parents need to do more than just forbid their kids from watching X, Y, or Z (the more you forbid something, the more kids are going to want to see what the fuss is about). Parents need to learn as much as they can about the popular programs, and watch a few of them with their kids; this gives the parents a chance to explain potential issues or concerns they might have. Parents also need to be good role models-- kids learn by what they see, and if parents use TV or movies like a babysitter, their kids will learn from those media, rather than learning ethics and values from their parents.
Yes, but some of the shows contain content that may not suitable for viewers under 17 years of age. Some shows may be tamer, but parents may need to preview some of the TV-MA rated programming.
they probably might just have the ac on, drink soda, and watch tv.
That is up to the discretion of the parents.
It is up to them if they ban it or not. Parents need to monitor what their children watch.
It all depends on the content. The best bet is to follow ESRB ratings and allow them to watch movies/tv based on those guidelines.
First of all, the answer will NOT be in a essay! We will not do your homework for you. I think children are more influenced by TV and cinema, but TV especially, than by their parents. What they see and hear though is something parents correct them on though. And of course it matters what programs they watch. That is always up to the parents.
No and I don't know why you focus on Disney. There are many children's programs etc and it's the parents who decide how much you are allowed to watch. Kids are not stupid. They know what is real and what is fiction.Disney is only there when the TV is on but the parents are there all the other times and keeps a dialog which is something TV does not.
RIDICULOUS. The risk of developing ADD does not lie in the viewing of TV. Parents need to be conscious about raising their children and act responsibly. If parents use television as a babysitter or as a means to shirk their responsibility to teach and supervise their children, they are more at risk of suffering from neglect.
Children do not need a TV for several reasons. Parents need to be able to control what children watch, to make sure they don't stay up and watch all night, and to spend time as a family. It is important that there is family time and communication .
Parents are not only vastly more experienced than are children, but it is their job to teach and protect their children. It is because of this that is their responsibility to choose everything, from the food they eat, the clothes they wear to the TV shows they watch. True, we must help them build character by making their own choices, but from a set of options selected and approved by the parents. If a child makes friends with a rude classmate who is a noticeably "bad infulence," it is the parents' right and duty to rule the classmate off-limits. The idea that whatever a kid wants is what they should have is wrong, lazy and dangerous.
They learn from their parents. they watch too much television and eat while they watch. too many families don't eat together at the table and everyone eats while watching the television.
No. Only within limits and under parent supervision. Research has shown that violence on TV teaches a child to react in violent ways. Children were shown violent cartoons and a set of children weren’t shown violent cartoons. The behavior on the playground of children watching violent cartoons were more violent with other children compared to the set of children who didn’t watch violent cartoons. The violence in TV, movies, games, and video breaks down the psychological barriers of hurting others.
watch television
Yes, children gets influenced by tv or films more than parents.
