| For all the benefits that TV brings us when we are unable to go out for entertainment |
Television has become a potent influence in our lives. It affects our attitudes as well as the clothes that we buy. Its influence is so widespread that it even affects our choice of foods. Television was for entertainment, but its magic has cast a spell over our life-style. It is recently that we have become aware of how pervasive a force it is in our lives. when we do not try to control it, we experience lethargy and inertia. This is because television is omnipresent in our lives. We cannot go anywhere without experiencing its message. It sugar-coats our dreams and drain our energies.
Television can provide entertainment and information, but for the growing mind it can also contribute to a distorted sense of reality. During the developmental years, your child will learn about the world by looking at things and events and acting upon them. In this intercourse with life's events, your child will think about what he has experienced and will respond with emotion to the results. At all times, his visual system will guide his actions and will respond to the feelings he attaches to them. This intersaction between what he sees, how he acts upon it and how he feels about what he perceives develops into the perceptual filters that guide his future behaviour. In each of these real-life encounters he has responded by choice and then analyzed the results. It is this act of participation which is the key to healthy growth.
