Effect of television is good and bad also.

Good means they knew what is happening in the world, government facilities through ads, information about product.

Bad means they trying to buy the product which may not affordable to their parent or they spoke the language as shown on TV.

Guys today we are going to discuss on the effects of television on youth.

In my view, television has both positive and negative aspects in today's society. Yeah, In olden days the movies are prepared on the basis of moral values, culture etc. But today's movies are totally filled with filthy things. Yes, these movies are deviating youth a lot. Watching movie is not a crime but grasping the unwanted things will be a crime. In olden days small kids used to sat beside their grandma and grand father to listen to moral and interesting stories. But now even these kids had a habit of watching T. V for long hours. We can't blame such small kids for watching because they were influenced by their elderly people. Since it's not too late still we have many opportunities to take part as a youth, we must be a role model for a future generation. So save time, gain knowledge from books, novels or some educational websites.

By watching television a person becomes aware of what he wasn't aware of. It is a medium through which a person inculcates positive as well as negative thoughts, it changes the attitude and behavior of them. But, everything seems good to a certain limit but television has a negative aspect too. It is like an open book, people those are very far away from the real world comes across through it. Like foreign channels ruin the youngsters & they easily get provoke for doing wrong things many adult programs run on the channels make the people evil minded. And then they got into bad things. People must understand that some things are fictional they are not in real. Like vampires, people get scared as they hear it. But Do, they really exist? Who knows that it's good that it has imaginary world around it but when we see it in real life nothing is alike it. So believe watching television must be in a limit is good & essential too but should not get stuck around it for a long, as it is not useful and worthless.

Hi guys, this is Nayeem.

By watching TV, there are some advantages and disadvantages. By watching TV we gain knowledge about our surroundings. Compare to olden days children are highly addicted to TV. They are not playing games in outdoor nowadays by playing games mental ability will increase decrease the stress.

After coming from school they are addicted to watching TV.

We have to motivate them to play and reading books, novels.

Good things do not encourage easily but bad things addicted easily. We have to take only good things not bad things.

According to my point of view, television is good as well as bad but I agree that television has many more advantages than disadvantaged by these following point.

First think -for entertainment. When people or students fell not good then television is the hood way for enjoying and remove our pressure in limit time. Not whole day.

The second thing is for equations. In television, many channels are telecast of equation field according to now time this is a good way for studying and now our pm Mr. Modi 's is trying to make digital Indian.

NEXT GENERATION COMPUTER EQUATION.

THIRD THINK is that current new it is only possible on television that we get news at that which time it is happening and we listen any listen to any leader's speech it is not possible on news paper.

Fourth thing is sports channel who want to become a cricketer or dancers then by television he get more knowledge related to his fields and he knows that how cricketer play and how dancers dance.

GIVE THINK IS now time our parents have not much time he busy in own work and now time we are all of forgetting our culture and history of India by television we can know about our history and about our religious culture.

Six think is that only by television we can know that we is happening our society in India and other country and we adopt the lifestyle.

At last, I want to add that if we watch in limit time then that is good.

It is also the responsibility of our parents that they tell him about good quality of telivision.

Television can be a Pandora box and idiot box both depending upon the choice of our programs and duration for which we get to stick to TV.

Some positive aspects of watching TV is as follows.

Getting live sports and events.

Programs for farmers.

Educational news about every field like history, arts, science and tech, art of living, yoga etc.

Getting the news of events of our nearby places, country, and the world.

Religious programs.

There is also a theory "Social Surrogacy Hypothesis" which says that persons suffering from loneliness and social isolation can use television and maintain a parasocial relationship with characters from the program which he watches, and it can reduce his depression and loneliness.

The negative impacts of TV are.

Children and youth watch violent content and try to imitate in the society.

Sexual contents corrupt the minds of teens and youth.

Fake and false advertisement also have negative impact.

Politicians can use this media to influence public opinion using paid tv news channels which are not good for the country.

Health related problems like obesity, diabetes, and problems related to the eye, social isolation can arise due to excessive viewing of the tv for long hours.

In conclusion, it is box it is our duty how we use this box to our use.

Hi, friends I am Ashwini.

TV is a very useful device to update with society. Good programs will come on the TV as well as bad too.

And the effect of TV depends on youth how they are using it. We can avoid the bad effects of TV by stopping the bad advertisements.

Thank you.

There are many bad habits on youth. They get eye problems and they lose their childhood in just sitting for many hours in front of TV because childhood means playing and enjoying the outdoor games like hide and seek and etc.

Hi, everyone, I am Kumar.

In my way, TV is very important in our daily life. It gives us important news, in free time they relax our minds.

In the way of its disadvantages is very high. In the universe every item has limited but they your limit they behave as a not good.
