In analyzing Dr. Grohol’s article, “The Debilitating Effects of TV on Children”, the main purpose is to portray the harm that watching television has on children during their childhood and the effects throughout their future. He argues that television is an unhealthy activity by comparing it to cigarette smoking, which is a harmful activity that society continues to whitewash. What is worse is that children are exposed to it as if it were as innocent as playing with their toys. Grohol, J. (2009).
This is known as the deviancy amplification spiral, in which the media makes a relatively small problem much worse, thus presenting young people as a problem group. In Wayne et al. 's (2008) content analysis of 2130 news items across all television channels during 2006, he found that young people were mainly represented s being a violent threat to society. They also found that it was very rare for the media to feature the opinion or perspective of young people. The media often gives a very one dimensional picture of youth that encourages fear and condemnation.
Mainly because there are so many factors that cannot be controlled. I’m sure that the only thing worse than a child looking at pornography online is a child stealing their parents credit card to look at porn online. It is not controlled enough and I think that the least the industry can do is require a voice authorization every time. Online gambling is a whole other subject all together. The companies that have online casinos cant seriously think that anyone short of a addiction would trust a website that is taking their money to gamble online.
Kids do not even rely on the Internet for news. There are too many sources, like video games and ipods that are competing for young people’s attention. Big events like Watergate and September 11th revived public awareness, but only for a short period of time. With people being so isolated and independent, news programs are suffering. A lack of audience causes the media to lose their power, and their watch on political life.
However, I was still guilty of watching it as a kid, when my parents weren't home. I believe this type of television has a negative impact on children.
By making these foods their market is getting smaller because it is destroying the consumers, literally. Nowadays, someone has some sort of illness like cardiovascular disease or diabetes. Consumers are surrounded by advertisements, especially young children. Young children watch television a lot. Young children are the ones who are most on social media and they see so many advertisements it is unbelievable.
Diet of television is the answer. I think parents should not replace a baby sitter for the TV, or even replace them selves for the TV. I know a lot of parents who prefer to sleep 30 minutes alone, and all they do is send their children to watch TV or play violent video games, they totally forget about the damage it is causing to them, and when they grow up parents complaint why their children are so violent with them and everybody else. I think the idea of built-in time-channel lock circuitry is awesome. Imagine a kid solving a puzzle -which will help to develop his brain- instead of watching TV; also this kind of activities will keep him safe from violence.
Also, he did not have friends because during the day everyone was so busy and hurried with their work that they did not talk to each other and, during the night, everyone spent their time watching TV, which Mr. Leonard Mead did not like. Furthermore, he was an outcast because he had odd manners. He liked to speak even though he had nobody to speak to and he loved to walk in the street during the evening, which was unusual for everyone in this society. He walked through empty streets and empty sidewalks where there were no sounds, only the murmur of TV shows. In addition, TV centred world had caused another consequence on Leonard Mead’s life.
Children Exposed to Violence: Criminal Justice Resource As we hear about the children exposed to violence though out the media and the internet, it’s sad that most children has to experience harsh violence in their lifetime. The worst thing is for a child that has to sit there and watch somebody else such as their father abuse the mother. The media shows that there are a lot of children across the world suffer the consequences of violence in their homes, in their schools, and in their community. These are some things I will be discussing about in my paper. Children become so involve in the domestic violence and suffer the full consequences of a bad home life.
