television harms children's brains
it's simple and straightforward: experts have concluded that children under two years of age should not be allowed to watch any television as each hour in front of the screen increases a child's chances of attention deficit disorder by ten percent. children exposed to unrealistic levels of stimulation at a young age continue to expect this in later life, leading to difficulty dealing with the slower pace of school and homework, for instance.yet this is not really what worries me most. children literally raised by the telly instead of by their exhausted, overworked and underpaid parents (many of whom should have avoided the selfishness of having the child in the first place) are not even learning the basic behaviour required for the ability to follow instructions and obey commands anywhere from the sandbox and creche to school proper.
