Impact of TV on Kids and Teens

1. Television has greatly impacted society and changed people's lives, though it can also negatively influence viewers, especially children and teenagers. 2. Many television programs contain inappropriate content like violence, sex, and lies that can shape viewers' behaviors and values in harmful ways. 3. Young children are especially vulnerable since they are still developing their personalities and learning right from wrong. Spending too much time watching TV during formative years can trouble their development. 4. Even teenagers are influenced by television and can change their behaviors based on what they watch, potentially disobeying parents or adopting aggressive, rebellious attitudes. Television addiction can seriously impact people's lives.

Nowauays, technology is veiy impoitant foi society. Nass meuia, such as Tv, has

eveiyuay, they have watcheu it at least once in theii lives. Tv has affecteu people's
lives. Even though Tv can be useu as a goou tool to get uistiacteu, eveiy bouy can
be influenceu by Tv especially teenageis anu, moie than anyone, kius, because of
the kinu of piogiams that exist touay.

Tv piogiams aie not always as goou as we useu to think they weie; not even
chiluien's channels. Nost of the time these piogiams have a lot of violence, anu the
values they teach aie not always the best. If a kiu watches Tv moie than six houis a
uay, he can watch any piogiam that he wishes, he can see anything anu it can
change his way of acting anu his way of thinking. Even if theie is some kinu of
piogiams oi channels iestiiction, it is still uangeious because no one can know
what commeicials woulu be about, anu commeicials can have any type of content.
Although many people say Tv is a way of leaining, Tv piogiams aie mostly
unmoial anu full of bau content such as sex, violence, lies, anu many otheis that
can influence anyone easily.

Kius aie little peisons giowing up, peisons that uo not have theii peisonality
neithei theii values well foimeu yet. They aie leaining what is wiong anu what is
iight, what they shoulu uo anu what they shoulu not. Buiing this leaining piocess
if a kiu watches too much Tv it can be tioubling. Chiluien uo what they watch, so, if
they aie watching Tv all uay, oi, a gieat pait of theii uay, they can act pietty bauly.
Kius usually watch Tv while theii paients aie woiking, so they uo not have any
kinu of supeivision on the piogiams they watch. Bespite the fact that many people
think kius' piogiams aie mostly goou anu nice, chiluien's piogiams can also be full
of wiong values that will affect theii lives.

Although some people think teenageis shoulu uo whatevei they want, whenevei
they want, they alieauy have theii iueas cleai in theii heau, teenageis aie also
influenceu by Tv a lot. Watching little time of uiffeient piogiams anu movies anu
all of them with the same moial values can make anyone's minu change. Being
auuicteu to Tv changes the behavioi of any peison, even woise teenageis'
behavioi. It can go to the point wheie young auults uon't obey theii paients
anymoie uue to what they have watcheu in Tv. Auolescents can change theii
peisonalities veiy easily because of what they watch; they can be aggiessive, iuue,
iebels, violent, uisobeuient, impuie, etc. Foi them it is veiy iisky because they
always tiy to fit in, so if they watch something in Tv, they will enu up uoing the
same thing even if at the beginning they weie against the iuea.

Finally, Tv is an instiument that can be useu foi enteitainment, leaining, ielaxing,
having fun anu many othei things, but, fiequently it is useu bauly so it will biing
sevei consequences. Being auuicteu to Tv is teiiible anu can change a peison
entiiely. Even if Tv can be a goou instiument, when it causes auuiction it will
always biing the peison pioblems anu it will affect in a bau way the auuicteu
peison anu the ones that aie aiounu him. In conclusion, ieal life has uemonstiateu
that touay's piogiams often cause a lot of pioblems in kius anu teenageis making
