Children and TV

We all

know that most children watch too much TV, but trying to control it has always

been difficult. Some parents are more careless than others about the programmes their children watch and for how long, but

usually adults can switch off the TV when they want to.  However, the problem is much bigger when

children have a TV in their own bedrooms!

In this case, parents don’t

know when their children’s TV is on and what they’re watching. In most

countries, the TV companies are quite responsible about what sort of programmes they broadcast when children are watching.

Moreover, children spend too much time alone and it

leads to miscommunication with their friends and a family.

It’s very difficult to take away a TV from a

child, but it is possible to control the time spent on watching. There is a

special gadget you can buy and programme it with the

number of hours a week the child is allowed to watch TV. This applies to ALL

TVs in the house! When a child starts watching, he has to type in a special

number. When he reaches the limit, the TV won’t switch on!
