This cartoon also utilizes the children to count and remember things in interact with it. In today’s society there are both educational cartoons and educational programs that are now widely available on television for children. These differ from other programs on television today because there are strict guidelines for learning. While there are many different ways for children to learn and the television can become another resourceful tool for everyone to utilize. Some parents do not realize that when they are allowing their children to sit down and watch television for hours on end that there could be a show that is educational and will help to fill the child’s mind with knowledge and not pollution.
Television allows people to know what’s going on in the world, it gives people endless hours of entertainment, and it even has a certain value in advancing people’s knowledge on certain topics. Whether or not people take advantage of the perks of television is the choice of the lifestyle they have chosen to lead, but the option is still available to them at any given moment. Many people could say that television is ruining American society, but that is hard to believe, seeing as it is probably the strongest, most widely available tool anyone has to get the word out about whatever they wish to say. With this being said, it is obvious that
As I look back in my lifetime I had two bully who use to come to school and constantly pick on me but the reason why they did me like that because they was jealousy of me. I was raised by my grandparents and auntie and they made sure I had the best in life so everyday I went to school with nice clothes, shoes and my hair stayed did and the two girls who use to bully me came from a family who couldn’t provide that much for them so to make themselves feel better they pick on me almost everyday. I think that jealousy plays a big role in bully because there some children come from a family that can’t afford a lot of things so they do the best that they can. These researchers concluded that girls were at a higher rate of bullying than boys (www.bestsyndication.com). Girls are victims as well when it comes down to bully.
Children’s Rights Project attorney Marsha Robinson Lowry said There are a lot of injuries, a lot of abuse. The most significant thing is the psychological death of so many of these kids. Kids are being destroyed everyday, destroyed by a government- funded system set out to help them. (Thomas, 2005) The bulk of children in foster care have already suffered from an abusive past, so the goal of the system is to put them into a safer environment. Unfortunately that is usually not the case because of the multiple homes that foster children are constantly being switched to the chances of being put into an abusive surrounding is increased.
In today’s society Americans are obsessed with pop culture. It influences our lives in many ways from the way we do our hair to the way we dress. If a celebrity does it then society will follow. In this paper I will discuss what Popular American culture is. I will discuss the three major trends in our society, and how pop culture affects our personal decision making.
Entertainment media has shaped American culture in many ways over the years. With the newer generations taking over the entertainment audiences the content of media is becoming controversial with the older generations. Sex and drugs are displayed more frequently in the media of today than it was thirty years ago when those trends really started becoming a wide spread part of American culture. T.V. shows, movies, and music are using sex and drugs to capture their audiences; and it works.
Visual entertainment has shaped American culture and its value, it has changed the way we communicate with each other. Since 1950’s there have been televisions in homes, people were able to watch their favorite shows, and catch up on the world through the news. Soon after that cell phone came into place. People no longer see the value in communicating with each other face to face. Some would rather create a virtual living life and would “live there”.
So goes the sayings “the key to life is moderation”, “variety is the spice of life”. A great deal is known about children and television, because there have been thousands of studies on the subject. Researchers have studied how TV affects kids' sleep, weight, grades, behavior, and more. It’s worth looking at what the research says when deciding how to manage television in your family. We do know that time spent watching TV replaces time spent interacting with caregivers and other children.
Many times the children I worked with came in hungry, tired, and sometimes dirty. Many of them came from dangerous living areas where they was a lot of drugs, shootings, and violence. So for me as a teacher a lot of times it forced me to put all my problems aside because I realized that each one of those children that were in my care needed my smile, hugs, love, and support.

Environment influences prejudice through media such as TV shows, fairy tales and music. Firstly, television programs have great influence over the audiences' perceptions of prejudices. Since television was first introduced to the general population of the planet Earth, it quickly penetrated into everyone's lives. Due to its direct connection with the audience, television has great influences over the audiences' perceptions of certain concepts, such as their prejudices towards a particular idea. This influence is greatly emphasized when the audience is young children with no prior knowledge about these influences.
