Hey friends.

I'm Sameer Arya.
I would like to speak about.

Effect of television youth.

According to me television is not affecting the youth its depend on our mentality. We learn from the show. What is bad and good. If we are watching movies then its depend on us which types of movies we are seeing. Television has both positive and negative effects on youth but I can't say that it has only positive and negative effects. Nowadays television is a part of our daily lives. Television is just for entertainment. It gives us many information. Just like discovere. News geographic or sports etc.

We want some entertainment. We have to laugh, giggle, Enjoy the life.

Hi everyone,

Television has a great impact on today's generation. Whenever we are free, we want entertainment we think of television. Everyone loves to watch television, It really impacts our day to day life. It impacts a lot of children, they believe what they see. If I had given an option or time to entertainment: definitely, I would gonna choose outdoor games or outdoor activity.

Speaking on the topic I think:

TV is an invention, which mankind can't take back, today, we even go through similar platforms via internet in our mobiles and PCs. It is a great instrument of recreation and information, much safer for children as compared to online. The availability of spectrum of programs and knowledge makes it a valuable product.

What is really matter of disturbance in TV usage is the problems created on health and the mental development. The simple bizarre programmes like never ending serials with no story line and the youth reality shows which only keep you floating in the world of fantasy and unreal thoughts.

I think what needs to be reviewed more is the content that comes on TV and as far as the time wastage and the health goes that is one's personal and family guided responsibility.

1) Channels like discovery, NatGeo tell us about the amazing discoveries happening around the world.

2) News channels provide us with the knowledge of world happenings.

3) TV advertisements help us to know about various products and markets.

4) Some educational shows like KBC increase our general knowledge.

5) Some music and dance reality shows help the general public to be part of it and show cast their talent.

6) Some shows like Savdhan India tells us about the general cases that occur in our day to day life and how they should be dealt with.

7) Small children can't read the book. The cartoons are very famous among them and they like the weird figure of various cartoon characters. Watching cartoons can actually help them in learning a language and following a conversation.

1) Watching TV for long hours is not good for our eyes. The harmful radiations emitted by it can damage our eyes. That's why nowadays, half of the populations are having specs.

2) Initially, people used to read books and imagine the various characters. But now, people like watching TV instead. Television has killed their imaginative thinking.

3) Some reality shows the aggressive and abusive behavior of contestants. This affects the mentally of today's youth.

4) Watching the never-ending serials by ladies is actually mere wastage of time. They should actually consume this time in doing physical activities and in interacting with the people.

5) Children have become addicted to cartoons and they remain sitting before television for hours which has actually made them obese. They don't go for outdoor games and it has killed their physical activity.

Everyone should sleep at least 6 hours. Without sleeping it may be the brain stress. The mental problem also possible to come. Why I am saying means many persons addicted some of the TV programmes. They want to watch the TV even sleeping time. Sleeping time also reduced them.

Nowadays television plays a most important role in our daily life. Television has both pros and cons. Because if we watch television for entertainment and news so it is better for us but if we watch it continuously then its bad habits.

Firstly it is dangerous to whole human being as.

1) Small children watched their cartoons for long and long whole day and night because of that they loosing the other activity like ground playing etc and also getting eye problems in a small age.

2) Those bloody emotic serials which led to frustrated the women for fighting in the family.

3) Lastly, the people forget the all other activity like gym, sports, etc and being to feel like lazy to stay at the home and to watch the movie for whole time.

So, the conclusion I that tries to avoid to watch TV by small children's and teenagers, if you have to entertain urself then go to the theatre.

In my opinion, television has a great impact on human beings either children, youth or old. The impact may be good one or bad. If the people sit in front of the television for a shorter period of time for relaxation is not a bad thing, sitting in front of it for a daily news instance or for a program through which we gain the knowledge is good and can be encouraged for a limited amount of time. But sitting in front of a TV set for hours together and spending only for the entertainment all the day is very bad thing and this should not be encouraged.

Children sitting in front of the TV set and watching the cartoon shows hours together may lead them to suffer from the eye problems in a small age. Women sitting in front of TV sets watching serials is not a correct thing. This effects the whole family, the children come and sit in front of the serial get distracted from their studies. The emotional TV serials has a very big impact on the Women this can lead to unnecessary frustration and quarreling among the family members and etc. So the television should be used only for a limited amount of time and purpose.
