Children can develop bad habits from some TV shows that are
meant for older people. They can be encouraged to make bad
decisions from inappropriate TV shows. Parents are less able to
control what their kids see if they have bedroom televisions
(Ridder). Kids can learn words they shouldnt be using and see
things they shouldnt be seeing. Some shows will also influence a
childs behavior, such as shows about fighting, like MMA, will
influence a kid to become more aggressive. Parents should be aware
that these types of shows are available to the public and should
monitor what their kids view in their free time.
