Television and its impact on the lives of our children: benefits and risks

The interest in the impact of television on children is due to the fact that watching television consumes more children''s time than any other activity, except for sleeping. Therefore, some call it a babysitter, and this is a fact. Children today sit with the television more than they sit with their parents. In an American statistic, some researchers found that on average there is a television set in an American home that runs five and a half hours, and on average a person watches from the age of two until the age of 65, which is equivalent to nine years in his entire life, and before many high school students graduate, they will have watched more than About twenty thousand hours, and in return, they will have spent fifteen thousand hours in school.
