Hi guys, this is Keerthi.

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.

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.

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.

Television is one of the mode or approaches where elder people get relaxed at their free time on other hand children and adolescent can develop their knowledge and can get exposure to multi-cultures in the world. For instance, when they watch cartoon the may learn English language and vision of creation.

I conclude that if parents have control on children they will use TV correctly.

Television has its merits and demerits. I particularly think that we shouldn't overlook the negative effects of television on the youth as it showcases programs which reflect diverse cultures. Television has an undoubtedly huge influence on the youth as much as l hate to say this through this vice the youth have lost the true essence of beauty celebrities who get surgeries for butt enhancements. Seriously!?, it's pathetic now almost every girl thinks that true beauty is defined by body shape and that is ridiculously wrong. Yes, we can't control we they choose to broadcast on television but at least being able to pinpoint how much these celebrities who showcase on tv are actually influencing the youth negatively would be a step forward. It has also resulted in a complete dilution of cultural and moral values due to the imitation and adoption of some of the worst and unacceptable tendencies. I can't fully pose the blame on the youth for not being cautious on what to and what not to adopt and imitate. We are just victims of a generation that has lost the almost true essence of everything.

Television means "far vision". By utilizing television in a proper manner we can grasp many things which are happening around the world. We can learn many languages by watching TV. We can improve our speaking skills. We have knowledge on different places all around the world. Many of the students are unemployed and they can apply for many jobs that are advertised on the TV.
