Older people are generally influenced by media through the news and tabloids. However, children are socialized through television shows and cartoons. The shows and the advertisements shown during the commercial breaks are an important part of socializing the child because they will watch so much television in their spare time. I watched two different cartoons on Cartoon Network to see how children are socialized through cartoons. The first one was called Teen Titans Go. In this cartoon, I…

Social media is where people such as teen and adults get their resources/information, by watching television. Television when I was younger was cool, fun and catchy; television today is like a train wreck, too many reality shows filled with drama.

Back when you can watch a show or certain channel without having to worry about you or…

that children shouldn't be reduced to the amount of hours they spend on media screens. I believe this because it offers opportunities for toddlers to learn and understand how to communicate with others around them and to interact with people. Television demonstrates all the necessities a child needs in their everyday lives. As said in the second article, " Other critics push a "screen time versus greent time" arguement. They blame TV and video games for children not playing outdoors in…

Oscar Wilde once said, "Life imitates art far more than art imitates life." His musing crossed my mind when I read the first book in J. E. Plemons Last Light Falling series, The Covenant. Since I read the Covenant I’ve watched news story after news story unfold on the TV: violence, mass killings, hateful words spewing out of people’s mouths, people believing they are superior for one reason or another over others, no respect for humanity and life, and I’ll admit I am unnerved by what I see…

Children today have easy and instant access to a variety of television programs. According to a study conducted by the University of Michigan Health System, children between the ages of 2-5 years spend 32 hours a week watching television, and those between 6-11 watch an average of 28 hours per week (Boyse & Bushman, 2010).

Many parents feel differently regarding the influence Television has on children; however, I believe television has a positive effect on children because it educates them. It teaches them different things they will need to be familiar with. In my opinion, it prepares them for school and occurrences they will come across in life. Not only does television influence your child, it takes them to places around the world and opens a “treasure chest of information.” Educational shows are useful for…
