Impact of Television

The discovery of Television has brought a revolution in the field of entertainment with this piece of idiot box reaching almost every nook and corner of the country. This technology of information transfer was treated as a blessing in disguise as it led to instant transfer of messages that once took days to travel.

However, the trend of television and its viewers has taken a bad shape these days as its impact on growing generation is taking a setback. According to studies, the growing mass is the most vulnerable and influenced target of this entertainment. To summarize the facts, here are the observations:

a) The television has become a favorite pass time for millions who once used to stroll about and play in mud in their leisure. The impact can be categorized depending on the age, personality and various other factors of the kid.

b) Small kids have stopped going out to play with neighborhood and stick glued to the idiot box. This has severe impact on the level or maturity and their physical growth. In the good golden times, children used to gossip, play gentle games, listen to stories and give time to their elders. But nowadays, they have started to ignore these and have accepted the television as their sole friend.

c) The violence shown on the television has severely impacted the youngsters as they are provoked to do some undesirable acts that might hurt themselves. There are many cases where kids have tried to imitate their heroes and suffered severe injuries. The personality of the kids have dramatically changed and their levels of perception has suffered a drastic turn. The feeling of irritation, short temperedness and violence has become their mode of interaction rather than mere conversation.

d) The media and the advertisements have also brought a bad impact on the children. The programs generally show a small kid using their product and instantly becoming intelligent and powerful which compels the kids to press their parents on buying their products.

e) The levels of uncensored scenes have surprisingly increased which has reflected in negative impact on the children. The once simple straight thinking children have become passionate and stylish trying to adopt the Macho image of their dream figures. Trying to impress girls, proving their superiority and using illegal ways for their entertainment. The sexual content shown in the televisions that are appropriate for the adult viewing has created a real bad effect on them.

f) The diminishing levels of physical shape of the children are also a result of growing craze of television. One can hardly deny the fact that children have ignored playing outdoor games that enhance their fitness and prefer staying indoors to watch their favorite serials.

Coming to a conclusion, we have witnessed a series of ill effects of growing viewers and television lovers that is not a healthy sigh of our upcoming generation. Especially in the last two decades, many children have complained of problems with eye sight and the credit goes to increased hours of watching television.

So, keep a check on your growing kids and make sure that they do not develop the habit of spending their time watching much on it.
