    Week 1-Essay 2 (Question 2)

    Television is important form of communication for many years as it brings many important historical events either it negative or positive. It can affect people moreover on children, because at this stage, children are learning and needs many informations. Children is common group as youngsters with age between 4 to 12. At this stage, children cannot differentiate between good or bad accurately like adults. But,I am not agree with many people believe that television programs are of no value for children.
    Many television programmes nowdays can give educational and many positive aspects to children. Parents just have to supervise them and provide good television program for their children’s development such as provided by astro. Many channels in astro serve good and educational programs for children such as TViQ programmes, animal planet, world’s discovery channel, cartoon network, and many more. Despite in local channel also several educational television programmes such as religious programme and spell it right program at tv3 are provided.
    Television programme such as art attack in astro channel, can educate and encourage children to be more creative. Their creativity is needed for their development and their learning process. This is same with most programmes in astro which provide educational and entertain programme in English language which can help children to improve their level of proficiency. Parents must always supervised them to attract to learn and get those beneficial informations provided. Parents’ guidance can help children more understand the programmes. They must start by learning alphabets, a word, then followed by sentences. Television provide many programmes like this such as Sesame Streets and Barney and friends.
    Children can also improve their general knowledges with animal planet programmes, discovery channel and also cartoons programmes. Cartoons not only can entertain them but also can give many visual on life matter and general knowledges such as on moral values, human and animal’s life. This also can develop critical thinking of society and world issues. Children which be trained for critical thinking in early stage can develop into a matured and motivated person one day. But we can’t too force them to think too much by must need steps and plan.
    By programme such as Haiwan Teladan at TV3, children can experience and learn important values and life lessons such as respecting other people, learn about praying, differentiate between bad and good in life so that their life will not miserable.
    These show that definitely television programs can provide many advantages to children. In this enhance world, many things can be done in order to born new quality generations. So, beneficial programmes like those I have mentioned above definitely can provide many informations that can develop,educate and encourage children to learn and become a good and educate person one day.

  2. Watching Television Are Value For Children

    Watching television has always been considered as something harmful for children. For me, watching television is one of the most values for children. When children stay in front of the television for several hours, they are most likely to decrease their attention span especially when it pertains to their studies. Because watching Television is not so bored like reading books. And they also can absorb many information from Television. By watching Television we can see many thing happened in the surrounding us world. There are actually have some benefits that children can get.

    Children can be allowed to watch television but with the supervision of parents. It is best to have them watch shows that are directed for children's learning than any random show that is on Television. Recommended shows like Dora the Explorer, Barney, and Blues Clues highly help children's development. Besides that, children also can watch discovery channel and national geography when they free.

    Children who watch these shows have wider vocabulary compared to children who don't. Their language development is much faster and they are known to have a higher ability in expressing themselves and able to speak with spontaneously.

    Firstly, language development improves when children watch Television. Beside from language development, children at a young age are also able to learn the alphabet, numbers, shapes, and colours when these subject matters are taught by the shows that they view. At the same times, learning the basics on the alphabet and other subject matters are much easier when teach to the children.

    Besides that, there is also some negative impact of watching television to the children. For an example, children become more embarrassed and want to do like what the cartoons do such as like jumping, climbing, fighting and so on. This is because the parents are forbidding the children from watching television.

    The most important thing to remember whenever children are watching television is, they should only watch educational Television programs but not for a long time. Along with this, it is a must that children below two years of age should not be exposed to television shows. When these things are taken into consideration strictly, Television watching can be a learning experience for children, and they are sure to benefit from it.

  3. In this era of modernization, television plays an important role in everyone lives’ because it is one of the media used to know the news that is happening all around the world. There are many channels found in the television such as TV2, TV3, TCS 5 for the adults and OKTO for the children.
    Even though there are many television programmes displayed o the television screen, many people believe that television programmes are of no value for children. Why is that so? Is this true?
    I strongly deny the fact that television programmes are of no value for children because it is not true. Children are defined as kids that are below the age of 12. There are certain programmes that bring benefits to the children.
    Children tend to like colours and they like to be creative in drawing or colouring something. Television programme such as Art Attack can give some useful guides to the children to draw and colour the art creatively. Children are also able to spell words correctly as in watching cartoons such as Sesame Streets and Barney and friends because in these programmes it is shown how to spell and mention the pronunciations correctly.
    Children would be able to improve themselves in their general knowledge by watching Animal Planets and TV IQ. Based on the programme mentioned, children would be able watch the inter-communication between children. Children’s imaginative skills’ increases as well. This happens when they watch certain movies such as Harry Potter. They would be able to imagine how the movie goes on and they would be pondering what would be happening next.
    The consequences of watching television are many. One of them are children would be spending most of their time in front of the television and they would neglect their studies and also the homework given to them. The children’s eye vision would be spoilt as they sit in front of the television for a long time of period. Children will be also exposed to immoral acts such as vandalism, bully and exposure to early sexual life.
    As the end, parents should not forbid the children from watching television and at the same time parents should also keep an eye on what types of programmes are the children keen to watch.

  4. Television is one of the needed in every family nowadays. From the television, it function as showing the news, movies or other entertainment channel to the people who liked to watch television. There are different ages with different type of movies that convenient to them. Right channel chosen will affect the right benefit to the audiences.
    Many people believe that television programs are no value for children. I agree with that. Not all the programs shows are suitable with their age and development status. This will effective with the supervision by their parents and also family members.
    The first reason is from the program channel, children will pick up the foul language easily. At their age, they will receive the message quickly and easily absorbed. For example, in cartoon program title Catdog. They play the character by using the foul language pattern to entertain the children. This is totally wrong and automatically the children will practice in their communication routine.
    More than that, they will expose to the relationship of love couple in adult through the movies. For example, the movie title Love Story. It will show the flow of getting knows each other, chatting and makes love. These will ruin the mind set of children and totally disturb in their studies. They will lose the focus in study and excited to see more flowing of loves by experiencing themselves.
    Besides that, they will waste their time by watching the television all the time. They might forget to perform their prayer or eat at the right time during meals or doing something healthy, for example, gardening, exercise or helping parents in cleaning the house environment.
    In addition, by watching television they will expose to social problem and totally not good for them. Such as in movie of Rempit. From the movie, they will expose to the bad culture of riding the motorbikes dangerously with dangerous style of riding and the language used among of them and their partner is also bad. These will influenced bad attitude to the children and aware of the lifestyle.
    In clothing aspect, most of the actor and actress like to wear an up to date fashion followed the western style. Truth, most of them is pretty and of course the sexy element is shown while wearing those dresses. For example, Sex and the City. That kind of movie is wearing the branded thing and improper dress up that going to expose half of their body to audience. Children just watch and see the design and intend to try by themselves. They might be ask their parents to buy one that most exactly like in the movie for them. When they get used to it from child, they will not feel the shame when they were wearing that kind of cloth when they are growing up.
    All of the above will cause the bad effect for the children if their parent not guide them to the knowledgeable way for their own good in future.

    Ask a six years old child what is her favourite television show and she may answer that she watches Barney and Friends, Sesame Street and surprisingly National Geographic. Children today are exposed to various types of television programmes which help them learn and at the same time see the real world. Some may describe that television only teaches children on being imaginary based on the fairy tales and even superheroes. But what we don’t realise that these are actually helping the children to widen their thinking cap.
    For example, a fairy tale of The Beauty and the Beast. This teaches children that we cannot judge a book by its cover, same goes for learning. Children should try learning from their experience which helps them in their future later on. Television also helps children in improving their language skills. Take an example like Sesame Street. This show helps children in learning alphabets, words and improving their grammar skills at one shot. Children learn faster and having a great time at one.
    Television show such as National Geographic and Animal Planets are really interesting shows. With the present of this learning medium, children will be able to gain general knowledge and expand their view on things that they always curious about such as why do dolphins are not classified as fish as they lived in the sea. Documentary shows helps in discovery of personal interest in children. This will help them in building their future ambition based on their interest.
    Children are considered very active class of individuals. From birth to 6 years old, it is considered as the most important period in one’s life as they began to develop their identity and interest. Children learn to be more creative in such situation as they are exposed to programmes such as Backyard Science which teaches science in a very interesting way. Parents also should encourage their children to watch educational shows which are one of solutions in children learning.
    A part from learning, television is also a form of entertainment especially for children. Children learn to sing and dance to the musical show and at the same time learn new words. But it is important for the parents to keep on supervision on children’s progress. Parents should be responsible to choose the right programme for their child.

  6. Everybody love to watch televison, including children. Children spend more time to watch TV than doing anything else. Because watching television is not bored like reading book. They can absorb many information by watching television. But for me, many television programme that give bad influent to children.
    There are many disadvantages of watching television for children. The first is increasing obesity. Research shows that children who often watch TV will snacking between meals, and eating foods that are advertised on TV and also tend to influence their parents to buy these foods. Besides that sitting for hours in front of the TV screen will make the body do not move and reduce the metabolism, so fat stacked, not burned and eventually lead to obesity.
    Besides that, watching television will ruining their eyes. Television emits blue light that also produced by the sun. But it's blue light is not same as ultraviolet light. Blue light did not make the eyes automatically blink. So, the blue light goes straight into retina without filter anymore. Ten years later when the children were adults, the damage caused by blue light looks very clear. Retina of the eye is no longer as healthy as childhood so the function ability become decreased.
    Other than that, television can affect learning and school performance if it cuts into the time kids need for activities crucial to healthy mental and physical development. Most of children's free time, especially during the early formative years, should be spent in activities such as playing, reading, exploring nature, learning about music or participating in sports.
    Kids today are bombarded with sexual messages and images in all media—television, magazines, advertisements, music, movies and the Internet. Parents are often concerned about whether these messages are healthy. While television can be a powerful tool for educating young people about the responsibilities and risks of sexual behaviour, such issues are seldom mentioned or dealt with in a meaningful way in programs containing sexual content.
    Children that watch too much television tend to have fewer real interpersonal relationships and interactions. Interpersonal interactions are a large part of how children develop maturity as they grow up, therefore, losing these valuable interactions to television shows leaves the children with a high likelihood of lacking in development of maturity. Though children interact with others at school, this makes up only a few hours a day. According to Shaffer, children require more interpersonal communication than can be had at school. Ideally, Shaffer says that children will interact with friends, family, and peers for at least two to three hours per day outside of school. Lack of this interaction, according to Shaffer, can lead to trouble in school, truancy, poor decision making, an increased chance of addiction, and violence.

    Therefore, watching TV is not so good for children. They must reduce their time to watch TV and parents are the one who can help them to avoid it. Invite them to fill leisure time with more beneficial activities such as going to the library which provide good benefits for children.

  7. Question 4- television

    Television as a form of communication and has been for many years. Television brings important historical events, both positive and negative, directly into our homes. Nowadays, almost of the television broadcast programmes are invaluable for child. Children are easy to influence by media especially television. They can not think whether what they watch is good for them or not .
    In my opinion television program gave no value to children. However, I can’t deny that television one of sources that also give benefit to children in their development and gain knowledge.
    Furthermore, most children have more interest on cartoon than knowledge programmed on television. Eventhough most children love to watch cartoon, there a few of cartoon programme that also teach children to learn such as sesame’s street and art’s attack.
    Have you ever watched Sesame Street or Blues Clues? Those are the best learning shows that truly have a great deal of educational value. Those shows help kids to be extremely susceptible to learning as they can easily relate to the characters. Kids often have very good imaginations and watching television contributes a major part to that. Other than that, from the channel TV IQ and National Geography, children can improve their general knowledge. We take an example from National Geography programme, they shows us about what happen around us such as ice break, tsunami, volcano and others. From that, children will know how and why these phenomena occurs.
    However, television also make most children spending most of their time at house . It also can avoid children from involve in any social problem such as vandalism.
    As the conclusion that I can summarise it here is actually television came both advantaged and disadvantages that may harm children’s thinking or not.It all depend on the father and mother to handle it for ensure children may not influence to any social problem that they had seen or learn from television programme.

  9. When students are watching television excessively, they are less likely to be spending time doing homework or reading, participating in after school activities, or being engaged in other intellectually stimulating activities in which they are active participants. Children, if not guided and monitored properly, may experience some adverse effects ofwatching television. For example, they may spend too much time watching television and fail to keep up with their academic work. Prolonged TV viewing and incorrect viewing practices like sitting too close to the television or keeping the TV room poorly illuminated, may pose certain health hazards like impairing eye sight.

    Watching TV is a passive event. Children remain immobile while viewing the TV. Most viewing experiences are both quiet and non-interactive. All attention is given to the images. Television creates an environment that assaults and overwhelms the child. As children and adults sit in front of a television watching a film of horrors of varying kinds, they remain completely quiet. They will be hooked." Some television shows such as "Blues Clues" and "Sesame Street" can improve children reading and problem solving skills. This takes up a massive amount of space in the brain.

    There are shows like Jerry Springer, where guests use violence and profanity to get their point across. Then there are late night shows where sexual content is used. Children at an early age shouldn't be learning about sex, they should be playing and having fun. Is there a program to educate children? Television programs for children are too explicit. Many programs promote violence and drugs, rather than programs that promote education. Children see it on television and think it's all right to do drugs and act out violence as long as you don't get caught.

    Children, if not guided and monitored properly, may experience some adverse effects of watching television. I strongly agree with the statement that television has had a mostly negative effect on children. Before purchasing a new television set do a little research. Especially a well organized household. Television causes the world more harm than good. People reenact what they watch. If you have children monitor, what programs they are being exposed too.

  11. Television is one of the most important miracles of science. It has brought about a revolution in the field of entertainment, education and communication. Indeed mankind should be grateful to its inventor J.L.Baird who has brought the cinema and stage into the houses of the masses. One can now watch moving, talking and living pictures on the screen while sitting in one's home. But there is value for children? I think there are more bad effects of television on children.
    The children, by the time they are old enough to talk, are being programmed to tell their folks just what they want. The big advertising agencies are directing more and more advertising each year to the children. The advertising personnel know exactly who controls the purse strings at home. Just take a good look at McDonalds and the billions of burgers they have sold. It is the 'kids meal' with the advertised toy that has brought McDonalds all that business.
    The youth of today no longer have to lie about their age in order to get into the theater to see a XXX rated movie. They now have cable TV at home and can watch the XXX rated movies whenever
    they want to. The ones who do not have cable TV at home usually have friends that do have cable and they can visit their friends and watch cable TV.
    If the children spend too much time in watching television every day, then they will become lazy and shirk work. He would like to sit idle and waste their time. Why not we teach and spend the valuable time doing more benefit things? Go bike with the family, hike, canoe, camp, read, play board games. If one sees pictures from a close distance on the television set, it affects the eye-sight. It is thus very risky for the small children who always sit very close to the television set. The children also get the bad habit of seeing films on the television. During the television time the children do not pay any attention to their studies which will affect their educational career. The use of television set also increases the electricity bill greatly. Many children are glued, and can't stop watching TV causes the children becomes obesity. They never get out and exercise, and eat inordinate amounts of junk food without knowing it. They also can become antisocial social when watching too much.
    Television is a necessity in a developing country like ours to educate the children. Television has brought about many changes in the field of amusement, education and communication. But the television station have to work hard for more and still better programs for the children .So that, television can bring more advantages than disadvantages.

    QUESTION 4
    Nowadays, more and more children become exposed to television earlier than textbooks, educational materials and the like. The television has become the most popular media in human kind especially children. I agree with with the statement that says a many people believe that television programs are no value for children.
    First of all, the issue arises when the child is exposed to a program not suitable to her/him age. We all know that a child's young mild is like a sponge that is so eager to absorb as much external stimuli as it can. In this case, it can give more bad things to children a child can commit immoral act after watching some programs from the TV. Let’s take for example, a child that watches two people kissing on the screen, he sees it and doesn’t think anything is wrong with it after all ‘it on TV’. So there is nothing wrong with the act. He then goes and practice whatever he has watched from the TV.
    Other than that, wasting time is one of the inherent disadvantages of watching TV for childrenThe children will spend too much time in front of television. When they watch the television, they forgot to finished their own homework and this can affected their education level.
    The brain of a child is that which can easily retain things, and watching some programmed from the television can make children exposed to certain fantasies. Children can do unimaginable things while watching television programs. Let’s say a child watched a movie of super saving a kid that is falling from a building,. The child then goes and jumps over the cliff hoping that superman will come and save him too. A child can easily learn things through the programs on TV and then imagine that it is real meanwhile is real meanwhile it is all false.
    With that television programmed, the children will not able to socialize. For them, they want to watch the television only and do not want to socialize. In the aspect of health, spending hours watching TV is harmful to your eyesight. Why they don’t play some sport and breathe the fresh air. This is because the television programs. When their eyes are tired, they do not want to do the right things.
    The conclusion is, television program is no value for children. That is more advantages of television program to children than a advantages. To rectify this situation, parents must supervise their children‘s TV watching throughout their childhood and adolescence period.

    Television programs have become one of the entertainment while the man himself today as an entertainer while in sad or lonely, whether in young or old. No matter in whatever form for example in the form of mass media or in printed form. In the form of mass media such as the radio and the television, whilst also in printed form, such as the magazines and comic books. But many people believe that television programs are no value for children.
    Everybody knows that television has become one of the most powerful influences among the children. Especially their behavior since they are still young. Children’s mind more quickly scintigrafic because they are still in the learning process. Thus whatever they seeing or hearing, they will get influence quickly and learn about that. Some examples of the most powerful in influencing the behavior of children are television. I strongly agree that programs from the television are no value for children.
    Nowadays, there are too many programs that were presented in the television programs. Among of them are the genres of action, horror and humor. Thus I want to give more emphasis to the program of action, because it has given the biggest impact to the children’s mind. By the influencing of this program, it can cause the children to do bad things and dangerous thing that can cause harm to them. For example emulate dangerous as jumping building and fight with each other. The effect of this, parents also can get hard because of their children behavior.
    Because of too preoccupied watching action program from the television, it also can cause the children to wasting their time from study. Children devote much of their free time to watching television. This can make them to be lazy person and can give impact to their study. They will watch the program until late night, thus for the next day they will feel sleepy until cause them to less focused on learning in the classroom sessions. After that, they will be less attention with what is being taught by their teacher.
    On the other hand, television has no value for children that can get easy to influence with immoral act after watching some programs from the TV. Let’s take some example, some teenager nowadays has become a wanton and willful, since in a stage of children. Thus when they are still in children, they have watching the television programs which base on genre action. Thus when they are growing, they have become a useless person and cause a lot of trouble to many people.
    The conclusion is, television is viewing in early childhood varies depending on age, and for very young children the effects are negative, while for preschool children they can be constructive, at least in some domains. I suggests that parents should monitor the daily activities of their children at home, especially when watching the nature of violence and rioting. In addition, monitoring the types of content appearing on television should also be emphasized. This is to prevent the occurrence of events that is not useful at home.

  15. A television is a device use to transfer information, for business and to separate the news. Usually, parents nowadays expose their children to the television programs in early age. Many people believe that television programs are of no values for children. Do you agree? I am disagreeing that television programs are of no values for children.
    In my opinion, a television programme has many advantages. By watching television children can improve their general knowledge. For example, after having dinner, parents may be able to spend time together with their children by watching Animal Planet programme. It very good programme that may improve parents and children general knowledge. It is a good device to gain more knowledge other than books or cards.
    For children in age 2 to 4 years old they are very are very easy to learn. Some television programmes such as Sesame Street are able to teach children an alphabet. It is very good and easiest way to make a child know the alphabets. Children at these ages are really like to watch something colourful and moving. This method is good rather than parents who teach their children using the wrong methods.
    Have you watch Dora the Explorer? It was a nice programme to watch with your kids. In this programme your child will learn together with Dora along her journey to save her friends. She will ask the audience to choose the right choices. It definitely generates your child’s brain to be creative and build their imagination.
    Children have a right to be happy eventhough they are schooling. A suitable programme should be choosing for their entertainment. A lot of television channel can give them entertainment and knowledge. Barnie and friends, Dora the Explorer, Kiteretsu, Detective Conan and others can entertain them.
    Finally, I would like to conclude that a television programs have their own advantages towards children. Eventhough there is a disadvantage, but as a parent you should watch your children activities. Even a good thing comes along with the bad things.

  16. Many people believed that television program are of no value for children. The brain of a child is that which can easily retain things and watching some programs from the television can make children exposed to certain fantasies and immoral act.
    A child can commit immoral act after watching some programs from the TV. Let take for example, a child that watches two people kissing on the screen, he sees it and does not think anything is wrong with it after all its own TV. So, there is nothing wrong with the act. He then goes and practice whatever he has watched from TV.
    Moreover, many violent acts are perpetrated by the “good guys”, whom kids have been taught to emulate. Even though kids are taught by their parents that it is not right to hit, television say its “ok” to bite, hit or kick if you are the good guy. This can lead to confusion when kids try to understand the difference between right and wrong. And even the “bad guy” on TV was not always held responsible or punished for their actions.
    Television is full of programs and commercials that depict risky behaviors such as sexual and substance abuse as cool, fun, and exciting and often there is no discussion about the consequences of drinking alcohol, doing drugs, smoking cigarettes and having premarital sex. For example, studies have shown that teens who watch many of sexual content on TV are more likely to initiate intercourse or participate in other sexual activities earlier than peers who do not watch sexually explicit shows.
    Besides that, alcohol actions on TV have actually increased over the last few years and more underage kids are being exposed to them than ever. A recent study found that youth exposure to alcohol on TV increased by 30%. Although they have banned cigarette on television, kids and teens can still see plenty of people smoking on programs and movies airing on TV. This kind of “product placement” make behaviors like smoking and drinking alcohol seem acceptable.
    As a conclusion, television program are no value for children because children influence by the action on television. So that, parents must take their important role take care of their children from being affected.

  17. The legal definition of child generally refers to people who are between birth and puberty. Other than that, children is a person who has not attained maturity or the age of legal majority such as child in age 12years old and below 12years old.

    Nowadays many people believe those television programs are of no value for children. I disagree this statement because as I know television has more advantages compare than disadvantages. The children are more likes to watch television program such as cartoons, English movies, and national geography. Children like to watch program which can make them entertained and enjoy themselves.

    One of the most favorite programs for children is Barney & Fiends. It is a special program for children to make them able to learn alphabets. By watching this program the children who are in age between 3-4years can learn the alphabets in early stage and it will help them to study early and learn quickly. Those days parents will send their children to kinder garden at the age of 4-6years. So at that time children may take longer time to learn and understand the alphabets. Children may learn it quickly in early stage by watching this program at home.

    Other than this program, there is another program which is very value to children. The programs name is ‘Art Attack’. This program is helps the children to improve their level of proficiency. They also can make things creatively by their own self. It will help the children to think positively and spent their time in good way. Children also can improve their knowledge in arts studies. This program makes the children to be very smart and intelligent in future. It is because in the Art Attack program the host of that program will use many different types of things to create a picture such as for example bird, horse, snow house and others.

    The third program is which we can say that the program is value for children is Animal Planet. The children can watch this program at National Geographic channel. By watching this program, it will help the children to improve their general knowledge about the animals and their relationship with human beings. Children like to watch this program because in this program they will show many varieties of animals its characters. By watching this animal planet program, they can able to learn the animals name and enjoy themselves.

    Lastly another one more program which is I said that more value for children is ‘Cartoons’. Cartoons are a program which is shows in television for entertainment purpose for children. By watching this program, children can enjoy themselves and be happy always. Other than that, they also won’t involve and exposure to violent and unmoral activities which can spoil their future if they watch cartoons at television.

    As a conclusion, by watching the television program children will be in positive thinking and spend their time good way. So parents should encourage their children to watch television program.

  20. Many people believed that television program are of no value for children. The brain of a child is that which can easily retain things and watching some programs from the television can make children exposed to certain fantasies and immoral act.
    A child can commit immoral act after watching some programs from the TV. Let take for example, a child that watches two people kissing on the screen, he sees it and does not think anything is wrong with it after all its own TV. So, there is nothing wrong with the act. He then goes and practice whatever he has watched from TV.
    Moreover, many violent acts are perpetrated by the “good guys”, whom kids have been taught to emulate. Even though kids are taught by their parents that it is not right to hit, television say its “ok” to bite, hit or kick if you are the good guy. This can lead to confusion when kids try to understand the difference between right and wrong. And even the “bad guy” on TV was not always held responsible or punished for their actions.
    Television is full of programs and commercials that depict risky behaviors such as sexual and substance abuse as cool, fun, and exciting and often there is no discussion about the consequences of drinking alcohol, doing drugs, smoking cigarettes and having premarital sex. For example, studies have shown that teens who watch many of sexual content on TV are more likely to initiate intercourse or participate in other sexual activities earlier than peers who do not watch sexually explicit shows.
    Besides that, alcohol actions on TV have actually increased over the last few years and more underage kids are being exposed to them than ever.

Although they have banned cigarette on television, kids and teens can still see plenty of people smoking on programs and movies airing on TV. This kind of “product placement” make behaviors like smoking and drinking alcohol seem acceptable.
    As a conclusion, television program are no value for children because children influence by the action on television. So that, parents must take their important role take care of their children from being affected.

    But television can kills innocence in children. The children are forced to know everything which is not necessary or suitable for their age. Because of this they become more matured at an early age. They lose their innocence and childish behavior which is a boon to mankind. Innocence gives happiness. But the kids are not enjoying this happiness in the present world. Time limits and monitoring it for children are some ways of keeping control of what they learn.


    But,majority of reality TV shows were criticized for portraying criminality and abnormality as normal day-to-day occurrences. Analysts remarked that realism in TV programs increased the aggression and involvement of the viewer especially children.. They claimed that the high violence shown in reality TV programs adversely influenced children’s perceptions; such programs made them regard the real world to be violent as that shown on TV. A media critic said, “The greatest flavoring of life that comes from these shows is a kind of knowing cynicism, an embrace of the idea that everything is staged, that feelings are shallow, that the difference between life and simulation is insignificant.”. Reality TV was also criticized by critics and psychologists for fueling voyeurism and exhibitionism in society. Voyeurism is the darker side of human nature, buried deep in every person.

    Too much TV time can interfere with what can be considered a child's more positive activities such as playing outdoors and exercising, reading books, doing homework, socializing with friends, or enjoying quality family time. Adults who spend a lot of time parked in front of the television can use TV as a way to avoid doing more productive things in their lives. TV can be a tool for procrastination and even isolation.

    The definition of a "couch potato" applies to someone who spends most of his time sitting or lounging idly on a couch, presumably watching television. Add to this the mindless snacking that can accompany a TV binge and it's no wonder how this ritual can lead to weight gain. Not exactly the ideal of healthy living. For children, the lack of activity at a young age can create bad habits that can last a lifetime. Children’s viewers gradually become passive in their action. Television may be a splendid media of communication, but it prevents them from communicating with each other or with the outer world. The world seen through television is only the restricted one: It separates them from the real world.


    The preponderance of violence on TV may desensitize a child to it. TV characters often are portrayed exhibiting risky behaviors such as smoking, drinking, inappropriate language and sexual activity. Kids may model their behavior after characters who commit these aggressive acts. Violence can be especially detrimental to young children, who can be easily frightened. Behavior problems, nightmares and fear of "the boogey man" in the closet can be consequences of watching too much violence on TV.

    Finally, the evil influence of television on the young generation is inevitable; it encourages them to commit crimes. Spectacles of sadism and violence on television lead them to robbery, theft, rape and murder.

    In a nutshell, television is useful to children if they watch good channel: Be careful not to overindulge the children in it and use it in a discerning manner for good purpose of the children themselves.

  28. Question 4

    Nowadays, people believe that television programs are no value for children.
    Because they all thinking this media electronic will give bad influence for their children. I‘m disagree with this people who thought the television program are no value for their children. This is because if they are thinking positively many of television programs will give a lot of advantages to their children.
    As they all know TV and other electronic media can get in the way of exploring, playing, and interacting with parents and others, which encourages learning and healthy physical and social development. As kids get older, too much screen time can interfere with activities such as being physically active, reading, doing homework, playing with friends, and spending time with family.
    Of course, television, in moderation, can be a good thing. Preschoolers can get help learning the alphabet on public television, grade preschoolers can learn about wildlife on nature shows, and parents can keep up with current events on the evening news. No doubt about it and TV can be an excellent educator and entertainer.
    But despite its advantages, too much television can be detrimental to children who consistently spend more than 4 hours per day watching TV are more likely to be overweight. Other than that, Kids who view violent acts are more likely to show aggressive behaviours but also fear that the world is scary and that something bad will happen to them. And the TV characters often depict risky behaviours, such as smoking and drinking, and also reinforce gender-role and racial stereotypes.
    As a conclusion, television program actually give more advantage to teach children how to learn, to think and also as a source to add their knowledge in many field of study. Many television programs that have been choose to their children that are suitable for children such as TVIQ, National geographic, Animal Planet and also the cartoon programs.

  29. Question 4

    Many people believe that television programs are no value for children.
    I agree with this statement. In Poland television has been broadcasted since 1956 year from that time a lot of things has changed. Nowadays, television set is in almost every house, often even more than one. People spend a lot of time, watching television programs.. It is hard to say is the television good or bad because there is some of the advantages and disadvantages. I just only says the very good of having television is we can have a huge source of information, knowledge and entertainment.

    Nowadays TV programs have showed many things that supposed not to show to the public. An example TV programs exposure to immoral and violent to the children. Example for the programs is Smack Down WWE. It showed more on the violent. Your children may learned how to become rough to others. Other thing is our children was exposed to the manner of talking. Example of the TV programs is Catdog that has been shows by one of the station television. If we watch these catdog story is more to the unhealthy of manner we talked. Bad talk to others although our good friend.

    If we says TV program now have an teaching and learning program it is right but if we looked careful now TV IQ programs not on the usually channels like TV1, TV2 or others but TV IQ program more on the channels that must be fee like an Astro Channels. I have watch many TV IQ programs which is good for our children but not everyone can afford it. And some people says national geographic is good to our children to watch but it is more on the channels that you must fee every month. Can everyone having it in their home of course not.

    Our children become a slaves of 21’ black box. Sometimes our children depend on TV schedule. They watches television while eating, dinner, sapper, spending their free time in this way. Our children may lost attention to their studies, they become lazy to do their homework. Waiting for their favourite movies or programs. They spend whole time sitting in front of screen. Children are watching full of violence and fierce cartoon and movies.

    Everyone can watch television. Even adult or children but must watch to the suitable TV programs depends on their aged. Everything has benefit and has their own disadvantages. We know how ta avoid it, to handle it and try find the solution of the problem.

  30. TELEVISION FOR CHILDREN

    Nowadays, many of people must be spend a few time to watching television and almost all the house in the world has a television. Everybody love to watch television, including children. Children spend more time to watch television than doing anything else because watch television is not so bored like reading book. And they also can absorb many information from television that is not derived from other media. But on the other side, there are many television program that give bad influent to the children.
    In the aspect of health , the television can increase obesity and ruining their eyes are the bad impact of watching television for children. The first is increasing obesity. Research shows that children who often watch television will snacking between meals, and eating foods that are advertised on television and also tend to influence their parents to buy these foods.
    Besides that, sitting for hours in front of the television screen will make the body do not move and reduce the metabolism, so fat stacked, not burned and eventually lead to obesity. And the second is ruining their. Besides, spending hours watching television is harmful to your eyesight.
    Everything contains good side and bad side and television has no exception . Wasting time is one of the inherent disadvantage of watching television. If one day, one person spends a hour watching television without gaining any useful information, then in one year he will waste 365 hours and in 10 year is 3605 hours. With that time, you can learn several language as well as finish some studying course.
    On the other hand, television programme are not always suitable for all ages. Sometimes, there are some movies contain sexual material and violence which affected the stormy phase of growing of children and teenagers and should not be watched, even by some adults. It will be extremely dangerous if parents neglect their children to discover the television programme themselves as they will immediately take influence of what they see. To rectify this situation, parents must supervise their children‘s television watching throughout their childhood and adolescence period.
    In my summary, I have reached a conclusion that nowadays, television is indispensable and give more disadvantages to children. Although it will be replaced by computer someday, but television’s benefit to our life sill guarantee it as the most important device which people need , in order to be up-to-date.

    If we want to make a comparison, between this day and the past 30 to 40 years time, one of the biggest changes that should be realized is, youngsters mostly children nowadays are physically and mentally prepared for advanced technologies based on communication matters. One of the simplest methods of communication is television with all the positive and negative impacts which it brings together. Television itself can affect viewers, especially among the children because at this stage of mental development, they are able to analyze and learn whatever new things around them that attract their mind. The main problem is, although they can stand out all new information which they saw and heard, they still unable to differentiate between the good and bad accurately compared to adult. But it doesn’t meant that I agree with most of people that believed television bring more negative impact compare to positive one for children.
    Many television programs nowadays had been arranged to include together all educational and positive aspects for children and youngsters at the early ages. Because of that, parents just have to supervise them and chose good television programs that suitable for their kids mental and physical development such as program that include morale values and educational aspect. For example, channels that been provided by Astro such as TViQ, Animal Planet, World’s Discovery Channel, and many more had brought much essential knowledge for children out there. Despite in our local channel also several educational television programmes such as religious programme and Spell It right programmes were also provided.
    Moreover, programme such as Art Attack by Astro , can educate and encourage children to be more creative. Their creativity is needed for their development and their learning process. The same goes with most of programmes in Astro which provided educational and entertainment programme in English language which can help children to improve their linguistic proficiency. Parents also should play good roles in encouraging their children to gain as much as beneficial information from the programmes shown. Their guidance is important in helping children to understand more about the programmes and do not simply follow the bad influences such as Western cultures that allowed free social living and violence.

  34. Cartoons not only can entertain children, but at the same time can also portray the real life matter with general knowledge such as human and animal’s life. This also can develop critical thinking of society and world issues. Children which be trained for critical thinking in early stage can develop into a matured and motivated person one day. But as an optimist parents we cannot force them to think too much about all that, because they need a proper steps and time to understand from their own perspectives.
    In short, I can conclude that, television programs also can provide many advantages to children if we as their parents managed to supervised and choosed the right programmes that suitable with their ages. So beneficial programmes like those I have mentioned above definitely can provide good information that can help to develop, educate and encourage children to learn continuously and become ‘someone’ at the future.

  35. Question 4
    Television Programmes

    Now days, Television media has become a pervasive force in the lives of families around the world. Television can be a powerful influence in developing value system and behavior among the children through the broadcast programs. Television programs can provide a many negative affect to us especially among the children. But, in other side television programs still give a value to children. For the example are some of programs quite educational and entertaining for them after studying too long hours.

    During this modern age, Children need to refresh their mind by getting entertainment and educational via Television programs. It has been proved by scientists that learning process in the childhood age is at its maximum then it decreases with age. Children never feel boring when they are watching Television. It is really great source of fun and entertainment after having long day of studying and doing homework. Also creative programs increase their interest and curiosity to know more about nature as being done by Discovery Channel. They learn more from TV programs after studying their book.

    Next, television programs also bring a lot of a negative effect for children. Some of the television programs can expose children to certain fantasies, and immoral acts. For example, the cartoon programs such as “Cat Dog”. These cartoon programs bring a bad influence to the children with the character they show with the way they speak and the attitude they bring. On the other hand, a child can commit an immoral act after watching some programs on TV. Let’s say, if a child that watches two people kissing on the screen, he sees it and doesn’t think anything is wrong with it, after all ‘it’s on TV’. So there is nothing wrong with the act. He then goes and practices whatever he has watched on the TV. The issue happens when the child is exposed to a program not suitable to her/him age. We all know that a child's young mild is like a sponge that is so eager to absorb as much external stimuli as it can.

  36. continue question 4

    Television programs that portray violence are a paramount concern for parents nowadays. Recent research has shown that children may commit acts of violence because they wish to emulate the behavior that they see on television. This is especially true when violent acts are committed by well-known action “heroes.”This situation proved that the programs televisions are very strong object for children. This may impact their molding stage in life. Parental guidance is a critical piece to this success.
    Finally, I agree that most of the television program bring no value to children. Besides that, I think the television programs give more negative effect for us compare from the advantages. So, for a child to be decent and grow as a well-trained child, it is the parent's duty to decide what the child should do with his spare time, and not allow him to spend it watching adult movies or adult programs.

    There's been talk of the benefits and dangers of children watching television for such a long time. I think there is good and bad of television programmes. Parents need to know which programmes their children need to watch whether it is to educate or entertainment.

    The discussion regarding the quality of children's television deals with issues of how much time children should spend watching television and what kinds of television programs should be made available to them. Child development experts caution that smaller children (aged two and up) be allowed no more than two hours of television per day. Children younger than two years old, they say, should be allowed no television at all.

    Some studies point to increased language development among children with access to television, however. The interaction between characters, these studies suggest, allow children a firmer grasp of the uses of language and an appreciation for how conversational skills develop and take shape.

    Parents wishing to avoid "television addiction should take steps to limit the child's access to the family's set early on, and maintain the restricted. Parents should also watch the programs with the children, to make sure they understand its content and to answer questions the children might have.

    The argument whether value for children is a controversial issue. Nowadays, more and more children become exposed to television earlier than textbooks, educational materials and the like. This essay will illustrate some valuable points related to the aforementioned argument.


    First of all, the advent of technology, has led to the increasing number of children being exposed to television programs at a much early time than expected. This is however, a trivial issue. The issue arises when the child is exposed to a program not suitable to her/him age. We all know that a child's young mild is like a sponge that is so eager to absorb as much external stimuli as it can. In this case, it is the ability to appreciate visual stimulus that is more developed. What children see, influence the way they see and perceive things. Problem arises when young children are exposed to violent and phonographic films, which greatly affect their perceptions to the surrounding. This may influence the development of their character and perceptions about life.


    Another point is that children, when left unguided, tend to view things that they see as right. They look up to adults as role models, hence seemingly imitating what they see which could have been wrong. The child's concept about right and wrong may be superficial. In this connection, they should be guided during the stages of their moral and character development as well as shaping of their cognitive milestones. Television may be a very strong object for children. This may impact their moulding stage in life. Parental guidance is a critical piece to this success.


    Furthermore, television helps a child to extent his or her range of interests. Children can find out many new things and make many exiting discoveries for themselves. In addition to these practical benefits television improves children's vocabulary, their memory and gives them the opportunity to gain more knowledge. I think it is very essential for a child. Of cause, someone can say that there are plenty of different recourses of information such as books and teachers. But, I think, in our modern world children must learn faster and use all contemporary technology in order to succeed.

    Finally, a child that is below the age of 14 should not have anything doing close to the TV. If a child needs information, he should either ask the parents or read books to get that information. For a child to be decent and grow as a well trained child, it is the parent duty to decide what the child should do with his spare time not using it to watch adult movie or adult programs.

    Television transmission and reception of still or moving images by means of electrical signals, especially by means of electromagnetic radiation using the techniques of radio and by fiber optic and coaxial cables. Most children plug into the world of television long before they enter school. children are categorize at age below 12 years. There are no obstacles age for watching television. Why are the people are watching it? It is just to mind relaxations.
    I am not agree with the statement of that the television program are of no value for children. In this era of 2010 there are a lot of changes occurred. Of course there are many advantages and disadvantages of watching television not only for children but for adults also. There are some of the main points of advantages and disadvantages of watching televisions mainly for children.
    In fact, a number of quality children shows such as the popular preschool show Blues Clues and, of course, Sesame Street engage kids in positive ways.As kids get older, too much screen time can interfere with activities such as being physically active, reading, doing homework, playing with friends, and spending time with family. Of course, television, in moderation, can be a good thing: Preschoolers can get help learning the alphabet on public television, grade scholars can learn about wildlife on nature shows, and parents can keep up with current events on the evening news. It is all depend to the program they publicity. No doubt about it television can be an excellent educator and entertainer. Some of the example of good programs for kid are cartoon, English movies, rhymes and many more. Every day they can learn new vocabulary.
    Children's advocates are divided when it comes to solutions. Although many urge for more hours per week of educational programming, others assert that no televisions is the best solution. And some say it's better for parents to control the use of television and to teach kids that it's for occasional entertainment, not for constant escapism That's why it's so important for you to monitor the content of televisions programming and set viewing limits to ensure that the children don't spend too much time watching television.
    Why such seemingly tight limitations over the past several decades a number of studies have shown that there are several ways that television program can be harmful to the mental and physical health of children. That is not to say that all television program is bad for kids. However, when children watch television frequently and indiscriminately, the effects can be detrimental.
    Television viewing and poor school performance. Only a handful of programs teach children important skills such as math, reading, science or problem solving. Most of the shows on television, including cartoons, are educational program such as national geography. More time spent watching these shows is linked with poorer school performance overall and decreased scores on standardized tests. This makes sense when consider that more time spent in front of a television means less time spent on homework or having stimulating interactions with adults or other children. In addition, late night TV watching tires kids out so that they cant pay attention in school. Also, television hands kids all the answers, promoting passive learning and short attention spans. As a result, kids have difficulty concentrating and working hard to solve a problem. Children who view violent acts are more likely to show aggressive behavior but also fear that the world is scary and that something bad will happen to them.
    Conclusions are parents are main responsible on their children. They must be a good guider for their children because nowadays the children are more clever in everything. They fast catch up everything. So that the parent must beware of it. They can watch television once a while in blue moons. They shouldn’t be addicted of the unwanted programs.

Most of the child there are like to watching television when they have free time, the most favourite story that they would like to see is cartoon such as sponge bob, Alvin and the chipmunks and etc.
    On this world the technology was improved like the mushroom growth after raining and technology for televisions was improve, if you seen television now they have many type of television programs such as TV IQ, national geography and discovery channel mostly this channel was seen by child and the family. The benefit is Shared viewing gives family members of all ages an opportunity to spend time together.
    Other benefit allowing child to watching television is child can improve their level communication because when their watching television they will learn how to talk because children on that time they in learning mood, most of the cartoon use English language then automatically child will learn how to talk in English.
    There are many other educational programs that may or may not be designated to children beside that child can improve their level of general knowledge, but are good for them to watch. Animal Planet is a regular channel for adults, but there are many programs on there that would be great for a child to watch, he may be more interested in watching those kinds of things if his parents sit down and watch with him.
    Some televisions program shows about the creativity learning such as HI 5 and Sesames Street, because child will follow what that has they seen at televisions and the other benefit is child will get a good moral value and life lesson. For the life lesson child will try do what has been they seen such as how to use radio and many more.
    Sometimes when child watch televisions they will follow the behaviour that the act is showing for him, some behaviour is good and have bad behaviour. So that family must observe what the child is seen. As the conclusion allow a child see television is good for the mind and the growth of child because television will give a good moral value for child and the most important is parents must observe the child and control the child hour when watch television.

  41. Nowadays, majority of every homes in our country have a television.Most of people thinks that it likes as a compulsory to have the televison.But many people realized that television programs are of no value for children.I also have a opinion with them.This issue more focus to primary school's student.

    From my opinion, the television programs is a main cause that make the children lose their focus to study.Nowadays, it also provides many programs such as Bang-Bang Boom, Astro Ceria and other entertainments that influenced the children to watch the televison untill teh midnight.As a result, they will forget all their homeworks and study.It will give negative effect to them if this problem still not overcome.

    Besides that, most of the children will spend all their time to watch the television programs.From health view, it will cause the children not have healthy life styles.As an example, they only stay at home to watch television programs and forget to do other activities such as jogging, exercise, and others.So, watching television cannot improve child health, especially, in their age.

    Furthermore, for social aspect, watching television will make relationship with other peoples such as friends, relatives and othersbecome estranged.They only spend their time to watch television at home untill not concern about the other things.In a long period, it will give negative impact to our country because they are as a new generation for this country.It will make the children change their attitude such as selfish and not care with the other peoples.

    Otherwise, the television programs also one of the factors that influenced the children to involve in social problems such as vandalism, gangsterism, bully, truancy and others.It is because they influence with the programs that they watch.In their age, they cannot think rasionally and only followed what they see.

    As a conclusion, the children especially for primary school are not good to watch most of televison programs.Last but not least, for my opinion, parents should play their role to control the television programs that their children watch.They still can watch television, but with a suitable program depends on their age in a right time such as during holiday.

    Question 4: Television program are no value for children
    The television programs are no value for children. For me, I’m very agree for these statement. For this reasons is, when the children see the cartoon and animated program, a lot of cartoon have a moral value, so they exposed to the bad moral from the cartoon and animated program and they can graps some learning out of a benefit from them. The child those who like watching cartoon more exposed to watch television and playing, for them they take a break from studies is better than doing or playing something which does not add to their knowledge.
    Besides that, it exposed to violence such as children programs. That show the image of action, teach how to do the moral action that can effect to the attitude of the children. For example, Power Rangers, how do they get rid of the bad guys? By fighting. During the whole episode that haven seems "Rangers" kicking, punching and attacking the bad guys. Other shows like X-men, Sailor Moon and Looney Tones show violence towards others. It's no wonder children think its okay to act this way when even their "Super Heroes" who are supposed to be the good guys are hurting others. They see the good guys doing these things and think it's appropriate.
    Other than that, the television programs is more to the poor socialization to the children. This is because the television program can make the children free to do whatever they want from the parent’s control such as smoking. It’s depending from the television program.
    Furthermore, in today's generation television has a great influence on children. Unfortunately most of the programs watched by children have a negative impact and give the wrong impression of what really happens in everyday life. It also influences their development and their behaviors. Such as Bunny and Friends television program. So this make a trouble to everyone, the television program is more give negative influence.

    Some parents believe that watching television is bad for their children. So, they try to restrict their children from watching TV. However, other parents think that there is nothing bad in watching TV. Personally, I think that watching TV brings children only benefits unless they spend in front of TV set less then a couple of hours daily. For the following reasons, which I will mention bellow, I believe that television plays an essential role in child's development. First of all, television helps a child to extent his or her range of interests. Children can find out many new things and make many exiting discoveries for themselves such as they have entertainment after they finish their school homework and back from school.

    Besides, to these practical benefits television improves children’s vocabulary and alphabet. The are study the alphabet and vocabulary together with enjoyment so they will not feel bored. Then, watching cognitive programs helps children to learn more about wild life, our environment and about the importance of preserving our forest and wild animals that live there. Second of all, theirs memory also will improve through language, thinking and communication skills such as they can remember the simple words from the cartoon they watch.

    Moreover, the can be creative and imagination through tv programs. They have programs that can teach children how to be creative and imagination such as ‘LEARN FOR ART’. Then, they have opportunity to gain more knowledge. Scientists say that a child should not watch TV more then 40 minutes successively. For example, my mother always made us have a break after watching TV more then half an hour and let our eyes rest for several minutes before turning on the TV again. I think it is the best solution. . I think it is very essential for a child. Of cause, someone can say that there are plenty of different recourses of information such as books and teachers.

    But, I think, in our modern world children must learn faster and use all contemporary technology in order to succeed. To sum up, I believe that television gives children and all people the opportunity to learn what can not be learn from books. Television and movies in particular allow people to feel the reality and see what they will most likely not be able to see in their lives. Personally, when I was a child I liked to watch cognitive programs about wild animals

    Q 4
    Television Program Are Of No Value For Children.
    Recently, people believe that television program is of value to the children. People said that it only brings bad more than good. But I am totally disagreeing with the idea. This is because televisions are very important for the children during the process of growing up. We all have gone through the growing up process already fell the important of television. It helps us in the thinking and adding information to ourselves. It also gave us the option of filling our free time during holiday. There are many other benefits of watching television for children.
    The first benefits for the children when watching television is they will be able to improve their language. They will be able to learn English in speaking and writings. There are a lot of program that offer that kind of benefit to children. One of them is Sesame Street. That program is very popular among children. Using that program, I able to gain the ability to write and spell correctly. It is a very good television program because it combines all from listening, watching, and speaking. It is good if we want to start training children to study.
    Secondly, the benefit of television program to the children is that they will learn to be creative. There are a number of programs that able to inspire children to be creative such as Art active. It teaches children to be creative in creating art and design. Children will learn through it and for some time, they will be able to show the ability to us. There are other programs that can show the children tricks or how to make an origami. It shows how to make a bird from a paper. It is an attractive television program and children will love it.
    Besides that, there are also some television programs that are able to improve general knowledge on children such as animal planet and national geography. It is very important for children to know about the animals. Not only for the children but also for the adults. Children will be interested to see animals and at the same time gain information about the animal. They need to know about the animals because there are some animal that are very dangerous but at the same time, they need to protect it such as tiger. They will learn to love animals from there.
    Lastly, television program will also be able to increase level of creativity and imagination of children. The example of the program that can increase children’s imagination is Harry Potter. It shows the imagination of someone about the magic world. Children need to know it because they need to have imagination. Imagination is important for children because they will think creative through imagination. From there, they will try to make it as reality. If it’s good, it will benefit us. Youngster nowadays need to be creative the world is developing fast and needs their imagination in the future to be more successful. The example of successful imagination is the airplane
    So, as a conclusion, it is clear that children need television program in order for them to develop well. It will help them as long as we continue to monitor them closely. If not, it will also bring bad because of their curiosity. Without television, children will not be able to gain creativity, personality, and integrity.

    Q2
    In my opinion, television programs are of value to us. Actually it all depends on what we see on television and who seeing what. There have a lot of advantages and disadvantages by watching television. By watching a good television program, we can make our children to thinking about it.
    The first thing comes to my mind that how does it affect our children. Nowadays, children like to watch cartoons. A lot of cartoon in television programs. For example, Tom And Jerry, Spongebob Squarepants and others. From watching the cartoon, our children can improve their language and proficiency. This can help our children to learnt English Language.
    Besides that, from watching the animal planet and national geographic, our children can learnt and improve their general knowledge. For example, children can learnt about flora and fauna in that television program. In this channel, our children also can know how the flora and fauna develop.
    Other than that, when our children watch the art programs, automatically, our children can learnt to be a creative person. This is because, when they watch that channel, they can think and can imagine how to do any arts from that channel.
    In addition, children can exposed to educational channel. For example, channel sciences, mathematics and others in television program. Actually, always study with all the books can makes our children feel boring. So, having a educational program in television program, it could be an alternative way to teach useful material.
    Also, in discovery channel, show a number of experiments with real apparatus or animal which makes our children feel very interested when watching that channel. Anything our children watch which is so useful and interesting, they will be remembered and not forgotten soon.
    As a conclusion, watching television give a lot of the advantages. It all depends how we control our children. Use the television in a good manner.

    TELEVISION PROGRAMS ARE NOT VALUABLE FOR CHILDREN

    Television is a part of entertainment device that were improved after the era of radio in the world. The differences between these two devices, by watching television we can see the actual situation that try to be deliver to the viewers. It is differ by listening to the radio because we just can listen to the voice that come out from it and need us to imaging the real situations. As example, by watching television can make our self closer to the artists, actors or actresses, and the television’s personalities.
    However, besides wasting the electricity, television also creates some disadvantages or effects to us especially for the young generations which are the child. In my opinion, television is prone to give disadvantages than advantages for us. In a positive manner, by watching the News, we can be informed with the situation that happened at our surrounding or maybe happened in other countries. So at least, we are always updating our knowledge about the situation at our surroundings.
    Either we realized or not, television also brings disadvantages for us. As an adult, we have to control the young children before them being tough with the bad habits that show in the television. Like example, when they were exposed with the story that contains heavy sexual scenes, as they grow up, they are brave to try what they’ve seen. That is why, the case of rapes is increase in our country. The development of brain also will occur by spending most of the time front of the television.
    As a growth child, they need to be teaching with a right method. Like people said, ‘The Best Moment to Teach Is during the Young’. What we have thought on that period, will be the child attitude and behaviour on the future depends on the way we teach them. Parents should guide their children to control this type of problem. Don’t let them to watch movies that not suitable for them which contain too much sex scenes or maybe violence behaviour that they can watch in any movies. Provide them some entertainment that suitable for their age such as ‘The Art Attack’, ‘Sesames Street’, ‘Bunny and Friends’ that improve their thinking manner.
    Otherwise, there is a problem regarding to the health status if we watching the television in a long period which is may affect our vision. This situation occurs because the extremely of eye expose through the light of our vision. That is why, there are many people that wearing spectacles and because it is one of the course to have blurring vision. As a conclusion, whatever it is, the parents and eldest generation should play their roles to cope on this situation to create a healthy young generations with the good behaviors.

    Televisyen program are of no value for children

    Do you love watching television? Everybody love to watch television, including children. Children spend more time to watch television than doing anything else. Within a week they can watch television about 170 hours. Because watching television is not so bored like reading book. And they also can absorb much information from television that is not derived from other media. But on the other side, there are many television program that give bad influent to the children and I strongly agree that television program are of no value for children.

    This is because the influences of violence on television may desensitize a child to it. Television characters often are portrayed exhibiting risky behaviours such as smoking, drinking, inappropriate language and sexual activity. Kids may followl their behavior after characters who commit these aggressive acts. Violence can be especially detrimental to young children, who can be easily frightened. Behavior problems, nightmares and fear of "ghost and murderer" in the closet can be consequences of watching too much violence on television. In addition children always have their own imagination influence by the television character such as superhero character. For example if they watching spiderman climb the wall in the movie suddenly they also will follow the act and it will cause a harmfull to them.

    In addition , some parents are upset about the moral behavior shows on the television. As they try to teach their children about the moral and ethical values, parents might despair about the lack of morals and ethics represented in some of the so-called role models on television. For instance, when the children watching the adult moving which is involving a scene such as kissing or hugging they are tend to follow the act and this can create an immoral behaviour to them . Certain characters not only have no remorse for their immoral actions, but also frequently go unpunished by larger society. Because of these factors, many parents believe that television programs give a bad influences to their children.

    Hence I once more state that I agree that television program are of no values for children. Spending time watching television can take time away from healthy activities like active play outside with friends, eating dinner together as a family, or reading. Television time also takes away from participating in sports, music, art or other activities that require practice to become skilful so parent should play a role to guide their children to have a good information from the television.

    QUESTION 4:

    Television Programs

    Televisions are a material that provides information to us. Television programs have many types such as programs for children, teenagers, adults and old folks. As we know children is the youngest population and easy to influence because they are too young and potential to influence is high risk compare to others. The issues are it the television program is of no value for children. Television have many advantages also got many disadvantages to children. So, I would like to choose advantages because I think television is good for children.
    Children are a child that is 12 years old and below and in the other word is primary school. Children in this age are starting to growth and develop. They are in learning process and feeling to know everything happen and come out with a lot of questions such as why questions because they want to know the thing happen. So, as a parents or adults we should tell them from A to Z the thing happen and make them understand the situation. That is how they learning and develop. Another learning process is television programs. From the television, the children also learn. Example of television program is cartoon and English movie.
    The benefits of television programs are the children will learn to be creative and imagination. Such as through the program Art Attack and Harry Potter. This program show alphabet to child. The program also show the alphabet word while singing so it’s make children more enjoying and interested with the show. The children brain on this age in the process development and the program like this as a excitement to excite their brain development.
    Moreover, television programs also able to improve in the level proficiency amongst the children. Example of the programs is High 5. It shows how to create a new thing from a recycle sources to be a new thing. It shows in this program and the program also shows the step to do it. It helps the children to create something new from recycle sources also help the child to fix their leisure time with benefit activity and it also can reduce bad behavior such as hang around, vandalism and so on. Children nowadays easy to influence with bad things so better we avoid before it become worst.
    Besides that, television programs also give information and knowledge. As we know television programs like Animal Planet and entertainment will help to improve general knowledge o children. Animal Planet is programs about animal so the children will be more understand and know about the animal life. And children also think animal and human is same. Animal like human also have child and animal also know to take care and protect their child.
    On the other hand, televisions programs can make children stay at home and just sit in front of television to watch the programs show while it also easier to parents control their children if they are at home. It also help the children not going out with friends and go to everywhere not under adults supervision. But if they are at home parents can control their movement and can reduce potential to dangerous.
    As a conclusion, television program is good and better for children because it gives more advantages to children. Television programs help a lot in growth and development of children. It’s also helps children to think and be more creative. In the future child can create something new and useful to country because they learn from child and their brain is develop rapidly.

  53. Nowadays, television has become the most popular media of human kind. It’s also the indispensable device in our daily life. By watching TV , we can see many things happened in the surrounding us world , therefore it help us to catch and avoid being dropped back from the world of information. Everyone must agree that the advantages of watching TV are very considerable .But beside those benefits , there are some disadvantages that we must notice to be sure that we watch TV most effectively. Most off all the main impact was on the children. The children are the group the most watching television.

    Beginning from the first one, I must say that television is one of the most important for children who start watching TV at an early age are more prone to develop the dangers attached to attention deficit disorder than those who start watching at a later stage. It is highly recommended that children under two years of age should not be exposed to television. It is best to have them watch shows that are directed for children's learning than any random show that is on TV. Recommended shows like Dora the Explorer, Barney, and Blues Clues highly help children's development.

    Primarily, language development improves when kids watch TV moderately and when the TV shows being viewed are educational ones. Aside from language development, children at a young age are also able to learn the alphabet, numbers, shapes, and colors when these subject matters are taught by the shows that they view. At times, learning the basics on the alphabet and other subject matters are much easier when animatedly taught by educational programs than teaching them to children in rote.

    Although the dangers that children are exposed to when watching TV are always present such as having a decrease in their attention span and the possibility of inculcating negative behaviors seen on TV, it still can be attributed to the control that parents exercise over their children when it comes to TV viewing. The most important thing to remember whenever kids are watching television is ascertaining that they only watch educational TV programs but not for a long time. When these things are taken into consideration strictly, TV watching can be a learning experience for children, and they are sure to benefit from it.

    QUESTION 2
    TELEVISION PROGRAMS ARE NO VALUE FOR CHILDREN
    Many people believe that television programs are of no value for children. Yet, a central question remains regarding whether watching television is harmful or beneficial for children. I agree that statement because television programs present three major concerns in the case of children, including depictions of violence, the use of profane language, and the representation of poor moral role models.
    Moreover , children may become desensitized to violence and more aggressive. TV violence sometimes begs for imitation because violence is often promoted as a fun and effective way to get what you want.This is especially true when violent acts are shows by well-known action “heroes.” In addition, television programs show cartoon figures, as well as actors, committing violent acts. Finally, some parents are upset about the moral behavior depicted on television.
    In addition, television programs that contain profane or disrespectful language also worry parents with young children. television programs of each and every kind to show characters expressing impolite and rude. For instance, certain characters not only have no remorse for their immoral actions, but also frequently go unpunished by larger society.
    Beside that,young kids are particularly frightened by scary and violent images. Simply telling kids that those images aren't real won't console them, because they can't yet distinguish between fantasy and reality. Behavior problems, nightmares and difficulty sleeping may be a consequence of exposure to media violence.
    Other than that ,they banned cigarette ads on television, kids and teens can still see plenty of people smoking on programs and movies airing on TV. In fact, kids who watch 5 or more hours of TV per day are far more likely to begin smoking cigarettes than those who watch less than the recommended 2 hours a day.
    In conclusion, I think television programs that shows negative problem are no value for children. Finally, many parents believe that television programs send their youth the wrong kinds of messages. The emulation of this poor behavior by their children is something they wish to avoid at all costs, and they have accordingly decided to ban television in their households for these reasons.

  56. I disagree that television program are of no value for children. For me, television play an important role for development of the children especially for their brain. At this time children are growing and their level of curiosity was very high so, they will learn whatever that they see. Children is define as a young human who is not yet an adult. So, children must have a good medium for them to learn and develop their mind since they are young, Television can be a very good medium for them to do so.
    One of the value of television for children is they can improve their level of proficiency. From a lot of television program that special for a children, it can develop their mind and make them able to differentiate between good and bad. Here, parents play an important role to supervise their children by advising them on what kind of television program that the children should watch and what was not. Example of television program that suitable for children like Dora the Explorer, Blues Clues, Animal Planet and many more that can make them think in the positive way and learned what they are supposed to do in this life.
    Furthermore, television program also can improve their general knowledge and language of the children. The best example of television program for children is Sesame Street. From the program children can learn to know alphabet, know how to spell a word while at the same time they learned it in the fun way. They enjoyed their process of learning by singing, dancing, creative art and others. So, it help them in the process of learning.
    Moreover , from the television program also children can increase level of creativity and imagination. At this age, children love to think in their own set of mind and also love to dream about something that they like. This can be a good start and also would became bad if children take it in the wrong way. Here, parents once again have to play their role to guide their children so that the television does not gave harmful for the children. For example of television program or movies that can build children creativity and imagination is Harry Potter. The movie was very good to train children to be more creative, innovative and thinking creatively.
    So, television program can give a very good value to the children if it was used correctly and wisely. Parents must aware on whatever their children watch and anything they do. For that, television can give a very wide value to the children in developing their mind, creativity, imagination and also provide a fun and enjoyable learning process for the children.

    Social life is the one most of the aspect need by the human in order to fulfill their life requirement, social life sometime can be very good and some time it can be very bad. Many people believe from the social life like get involve in other community or club can make people more confidence and be prepared to face their future life. In order to get involve in the social activities we as teenager need to teach and guide children development so that there can growth better and complete with good social activities. So that on of the medium we cam use in to teach a children are by using television.

    Television are good for children, especially in this modern era because now day many useful programs which are related to education are very easy to find, for example we have very famous cartoon show “wonder pet” which us the word “teamwork” as their trademark which mean we need to do any job together with our friend then we will achieved the goal. From this show, children will learn about good behavioral. Beside that, studied has showed children are tend to follow what they saw and the learning process are improve when they involve animation include with the music.

    Beside that, television also good for the children growth and development because children are very fast learner. For example, when there is a dialog or and behavior that shown in the television there tend to follow, therefor as a parents and older siblings we should guide them in choosing a program so that they will grow with good attitude.

    Children development in their life style also can be influenced by television for example when there is a cartoon with smart and good looking heroes they tend to be just like the heroes and this can help in children appearance.
    Television and children can not be avoided because there is scientifically approve that from the moment of children birth until 6 years old, the brain cell are actively divided and growth very well. So the children in that age are in very good time to give any valuable knowledge because they can process it at very high rate. But they need supervision from parent and older sibling.

    We can conclude that children can not be separated from the television but they need to put watching television as a part of their activities in a day but should be guidance from an adult to choose a suitable program as we know that they are very easy to get influence. So children need the television in their life.

  58. Through what they experience on television, children are forced into adulthood at too young of an age. The innocence of youth is lost when children stare endlessly at a screen displaying the horrors of murder, rape, assault, devastating fire, and other natural disasters. Although these are occurrences in everyday life, things adults have grown accustomed to hearing about, children do not have the maturity level to deal with these tragedies appropriately. Children’s behavior changes because they become desensitized to the violence. There are many preventative techniques that can be applied to ensure that negativity on television will not interfere with a child’s development.
    Children see violent acts on television and make an attempt to process it, and in doing so, their innocence is lost. According to Dr. David Elkind, president emeritus, National Association for the Education of Young Children, “Television forces children to accommodate a great deal and inhibits the assimilation of material. Consequently, the television child knows a great deal more than he or she can ever understand. This discrepancy between how much information children have and what they can process is the major stress of television.” (160) Children’s minds are not fully developed; therefore, they can not be expected to understand the violence on television.The media, specifically television, has become more and more violent, in not all too subtle ways, exposing many children to behaviors not appropriate to a young audience. Remember “the Menendez brothers, who ruthlessly shot their parents as they ate ice cream and watched TV in their family room, planted in children’s minds the worst possibility -- that a parent could die violently at the hands of a child.” (Medved, et. al. 243) Seeing the violence, hearing about it, watching news reports about violent acts committed by real people, especially other children, affects the viewer negatively. Children can not relate to what they see when they are so young, making the act of watching violent television extremely questionable. Children should not know about murder and rape; however according to Gloria Tristani, Commissioner for the Federal Communications Commission, by the time they finish elementary school, children have witnessed 8,000 murders and 100,000 acts of violence. (Tristani website) Children should not be allowed to view such behavior as they are far too young to comprehend the severity of what they see.
    Younger children are more susceptible to the impact of television violence in part because they spend more time in front of the set. Psychological research has shown that children become less sensitive to pain and suffering of others, more fearful of the world around them, and are more likely to behave in aggressive or harmful ways toward others. Children who watch a lot of television are less bothered by the violence they see on television than those children who watch only a little. This shows that children are desensitized to the pain and suffering they witness on television.

    Some parents believe that watching television is bad for their children. So, they try to restrict their children from watching TV. However, other parents think that there is nothing bad in watching TV. Personally, I think that watching TV brings children only benefits unless they spend in front of TV set less then a couple of hours daily. For the following reasons, which I will mention bellow, I believe that television plays an essential role in child's development. First of all, television helps a child to extent his or her range of interests. Children can find out many new things and make many exiting discoveries for themselves such as they have entertainment after they finish their school homework and back from school.
    Besides, to these practical benefits television improves children’s vocabulary and alphabet. The are study the alphabet and vocabulary together with enjoyment so they will not feel bored. Then, watching cognitive programs helps children to learn more about wild life, our environment and about the importance of preserving our forest and wild animals that live there. Second of all, theirs memory also will improve through language, thinking and communication skills such as they can remember the simple words from the cartoon they watch.
    Moreover, the can be creative and imagination through tv programs. They have programs that can teach children how to be creative and imagination such as ‘LEARN FOR ART’. Then, they have opportunity to gain more knowledge. Scientists say that a child should not watch TV more then 40 minutes successively. For example, my mother always made us have a break after watching TV more then half an hour and let our eyes rest for several minutes before turning on the TV again. I think it is the best solution. . I think it is very essential for a child. Of cause, someone can say that there are plenty of different recourses of information such as books and teachers.
    But, I think, in our modern world children must learn faster and use all contemporary technology in order to succeed. To sum up, I believe that television gives children and all people the opportunity to learn what can not be learn from books. Television and movies in particular allow people to feel the reality and see what they will most likely not be able to see in their lives. Personally, when I was a child I liked to watch cognitive programs about wild animals

    TELEVISION IS ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE FOR KIDS


    Television is an important form of communication. Television brings important historical events, both positive and negative, directly into our homes. People don’t just read about current events, they experience them in real time. There is always advantage and disadvantage Especially for kids nowdays . Television is considered as one of the most powerful media these days not just for learning but also as means of communication.

    This is the advantage of television. First of all television can also be a fine teaching tool. there are many television shows on the air that are informative and educational. The right television shows can teach our children about morals and values as well as right from wrong. Educational television is not only for children however; Public television as well such as National Geographic and The History Channel serve as learning tools for adults. In fact many college and universities use local channels to provide distance learners the opportunity college to attend lectures given on television. Many educational, scientific, historical and political programs that are shown on TV are very interesting and informative. We are taken to any corner of the world where any game of our interest is being played. We are taught how a particular dish is cooked, how a particular disease can be prevented or cured, how our houses can be decorated without spending much money.


    Along with the advantages listed above there are also disadvantages to television. First the same proliferation of new channels that provides additional educational opportunities also provides opportunities for children to be exposed to more inappropriate content than ever before. It is not uncommon for children to have access to movies and programs intended to be viewed only by mature audiences. While technology has been put into place to help conscientious parents censor the channels and shows their children can access, these methods are far from fool proof and they are only as effective as the parents who choose whether or not to utilize them. This unfettered access to adult material appears to manifest itself in a variety of different ways but most people would agree today’s children are more aware of adult themes (such as sex and violence) at an earlier age than ever before.

  63. Television can be a wonderful educational medium, but there is some poor content out there that is not suitable for children. Children are tends to absorb and learn fastly on what they watch and hear. It is because they are at developing age and their brains stimulates easily. Many people believe that television programs are of no value for children. But for me, I am not agreeing with that statement. There are many educational programs that may or may not be designated to children, but it is good for them to watch.

    As example, Animal Planet is a regular channel for adults, but the programs on there would be great for them to watch which about the animals. It will be more interested if the parents also sit down and watching it with their children.

    Probably, everyone in the world knows what Sesame Street is. Most of us even watched it when we were kids. For those who do not know about it, Sesame Street is based on a street that a bunch of monster and animals live on. We have got Big Bird, Bert and Ernie, Cookie Monster, Elmo and many others. Sesame Street teaches children a different letter and number every day. They teach children many different words that start with this “letter of the day”.

    Dora the Explorer mixes teaching mostly Spanish and mathematics in one television program. They will often say a word in English, translate it into Spanish and ask the children to repeat it. They will usually say the word and have the child repeat it several times which is a great way to help it stick in their little minds. Dora the Explorer also implements a lot of counting during their episodes.

    Go, Diego Go! Is another educational program based on different kinds of animals? They also throw in a bit of Spanish here and there. Diego teaches children about the many types of animals we have in this world, what they eat, what they do, where they live, what they look like and others.

    There are also many other television channels on local and network television that offer many forms of education to our children. I believe that many adults do not realize this fact. With time and technology that we have now, people should give television a new opportunity to show and teach children many things that we may not be able to. I think it is important that very young children get the opportunity to watch these kinds of things on television before they start attending school, so that by the time they go to school they can go with a good level of education and knowledge already.

  64. Nowadays no more houses without television. All most each and every house having television to entertain them. The television programs all always attract people by television by many programs such as cartoon, English such as National Geography and also animal planet. Children programs not value for the children. But my opinion I disagree this statement. Television programs give a lot of value for the children.

    Firstly, children get more general knowledge by watching television. As a parents or guardian we can teach children about daily living activity about good attitude, moral values and more but not general knowledge. We can get general knowledge by reading news paper, books, and listen to radio and watching television. So children’s choose television as knowledge producer. They get general knowledge. When they watch programs such as national geography and animal planets.

    Children who watch television programs or cartoons can get a good creative mind. Example that make children creative art attack. This program shows how to draw some picture or colouring and more. When children’s show this kind of programs they will try again and build up their creativity. Some time the parents also can see the children growth in their creativity.

    Other then that, children can learn alphabet very well. There is a programs that teach children alphabet with songs and music. That program really helps the children to learn and remember the alphabet very well. This make easier to parents to teach them. Sometime parents will shock because they teach the children will learn from television. Not only the words alphabets the children can know about some things for a example in some programs will introduce some thing such as fruits, vegetables, furniture writing accessory and more. In this type programs they will show the things and say the purpose. So that children easy to learn.

    More than that, children also can improve their level of proficiency. By watching television children can talk very well without any wrong. They also can think in their own self to do something by watching television. The television program also gives children to improve their speaking without any wrong. The communication skill of the children also will improve. Some time parents will by some CD the children watch. Through the CD they are able to improve their general knowledge well, their communicate skill also.

    By watching television also children’s imaging power will increase. Mainly imaging power by watching television is through cartoons. There is cartoon such as prince and princess stories or other planets living pattern story and more. When the children watch this type of stories they can image the situation and write it them. So that their writing skill also improve.
    Finally there is a lot of advantages by children watching television. Their good growth be in good condition. Programs that they watch parents must know. A program that the children watch because parents the one who know about the children growth and television programs. Parents must encourage children to watch television programs.

  65. QUESTION 4

    The Advantages of Television Programs for Children

    Urbanization brings us to the modernization life. Nowadays there were a lot of things that have been created to make better life to the human. That is included the creation of television. But had anyone in the world had realize that there were had either advantages or disadvantages of television. Many people believe that television is no value for children. Children is the person that not have much sin in their life but it is depends on how their parents to educate them. Whose the person that we called children is the human in age of 12 years and below.
    How does television educated children? A television functions just like a book does and even better. It offers information from all over the world. Program such as National Geographic and Discovery World tells us the latest happening. Other that that, it can improve the general knowledge of children. Unlike a book, television is a one-stop centre for information. We as the parents would have to purchase different books to acquire information of different fields. However, you just have to purchase a television set once for your children and it will offer you various information forever.
    Since there are many programs in English, the children can also use the television as a tool to help them improve their English language proficiency. This is done by watching and listening to English programs likes Sesame Street and Bunny and Friends. Thus television not only educates child in knowledge but also enhances their knowledge. Other than that, the television programs can make the children know about the other culture of different countries. Countries like China, Russia and the middle-east countries are impossible for some of as to ever visit. But with television, this is made possible as there are many programs that showed about these countries.
    The effects of sound and sight of television make it excellent tool for children. This is especially true for children below five years old who have yet the ability of reading and understanding things. Otherwise it can increase the level of creativity and imagination of child. From the programs like Mari Mengaji had teach children the important value and life lesson especially to the Muslim. Through television, broadcasting stations have designed various educational programs that are suitable for learning process of children.

    The Advantages of Television Programs for Children
    Many people believe televisions program are of no value for children. But do you realize that without television children cannot generate their mind. Many advantages we believe can help the children learn to be creative. Creative in this text meant that children can think more creatively and learn a lot of think through imagination that created by the child itself, it also one of the way to improve their learning session. Many program that provide for children such as sesamesstreet which teach children a simple ways learn in alphabet to make children interested and in happy condition not to boring learning session. In that way of watching televisions, it also able to improve their proficiency in communication and improve language skill.

As a conclusion, children television program make a lot of benefits to children that can give life lesson such as advised, and it can improve their skill in communicating, writing, thinking, and technique in coloring. it’s how the children to be more creative and think out of the box. It also to prevent their parent worried about their children, the children also under supervision of their parents.

  67. The argument whether or not television programs are of no values for children is a controversial issue. Nowadays, more and more children become exposed to television earlier than textbooks, educational materials and the like. Nowadays, television has become the most popular type of communication and the entertainment . . Because of its popularity, television clearly has a far-reaching effect on human life, in particular, on people’s behaviour. Can television change our lives? Many researches show that television viewing has a negative impact on people especially children. My mother agrees with it and says that television needs to be reduced in daily viewings, for children to have more time to concentrate on their homework. Nevertheless, many parents believe that television disturbs youth’s minds from learning or participating in family activities in their daily life. Studies conclude that television disturbs peoples’ mentality, which my mother and many other parents agree with the concept of reducing television viewing for children.

    First of all, the advent of technology has led to the increasing number of children being exposed to television programs at a much early time than expected. The brain of a child is that which can easily retain things, and watching some programmer from the television can make children exposed to certain fantasies, and immoral act. Therefore I agree that television programs are of no value to children for the following two reasons which is watching television programs can make children do unimaginable things and watching adult programs can make them [perform immoral acts. Children can do unimaginable things while watching television programs. Lets say a child watched a movie of super saving a kid that is falling from a 32 story building,. The child then goes and jump over the cliff hoping that super man will come and save him too. A child can easily learn things through the programs on TV and then imagine that it is real meanwhile is real meanwhile it is all false. On the other hand, a child can commit immoral act after watching some programs from the TV. Lets take for example, a child that watches two people kissing on the screen, he sees it and doesn’t think anything is wrong with it after all ‘its on TV’. So there is nothing wrong with the act. He then goes and practice what ever he has watched from the TV.

    Finally, a child that is below the age of 14 should not have anything doing close to the TV. If a child needs information, he should either ask the parents or read books to get that information. for a child to be decent and grow as a well trained child, it is the parent duty to decide what the child should do with his spare time not using it to watch adult movie or adult programs. Another point is that children, when left unguided, tend to view, assume things that they see as right. They look up to adults as role models, hence seemingly imitating what they see, which could have been wrong. The child's concept about right and wrong may be superficial. In this connection, they should be guided during the stages of their moral and character development. The issue arises when the child is exposed to a program not suitable to their age. We all know that a child's young mild is like a sponge that is so eager to absorb as much external stimuli as it can. In this case, it has the ability to appreciate visual stimulus that is more developed. What children see, influences the way they see and perceive things. Television may be a very strong attraction for children. This may impact their formative stage in their life. Parental guidance is a critical piece to their success.Therefore, my mother believes that television is the force that keeps young children from studying or doing their homework steadily. Children wait impatiently for their favourite program to start and most of them try to waste their time until it starts.

    Children are easy to influence by media especially television. They can not think. whether what they watch is good for them or not I think television program give no value to children. I cant deny that television one of sources that also give benefit to children in their development and gain knowledge. Moreover, not all children want to see knowledge entertainment. They more interested to other things such as cartoon, love movies and others. Parents is the one who will take care of their child at home. Unfortunately, majority of parents do not have much time to spend with their children because busy with their work. Eventhough ,housewife also can not give full attention to their children because they need to do other work such as washing, cooking and others. So this children will sit alone and watching television without any supervision.


    One of negative impact of television program is children are expose to sex. Imagine children are at stage where they want to know and want to try something new. Nowadays, there have a lot of movie that show love scene especially in Mexico or English movie. If this children are influence by this scenario they will try it with their friend. This is not their fault because they do not know anything about sex and complication if they do sex. They will think if all people at the movie can do and do not have problem about it so what they will afraid of. That's why children nowadays eventhough at young age they can involve in sex activity. This will give big impact to our country such as this children are high risk to moral problem when they grow up and for the boy they will try to rape to fulfill their desire. As preventation, parents must take an action in take care of their children. Give their children enough religion knowledge . Government also need to teach thisn children moral subject at class so they will know whether what they watch and do is correct or not.

    Nevertheless, many programs cartoon start morning and at night, especially good action movies, and when the movie is over, its time to bed. In other cases, when children have their own television set in their rooms, they try to lie their parents by putting their books or works in front of them, but watch television instead. So when the parent comes, they can show them that they are doing work even while watching television. But what children don’t understand is that these lies will have long-term affects in their lifestyles and behaviours. Television keeps people occupied from more important things and keeps young children from studying or doing their homework. On the other hand, TV also brings with it serious problems. Watching TV could lead to a number of health issues. For instance, in developed countries where TV is popular, many children acquire obesity because of watching TV too much without exercises. As a consequence, it leads to laziness and health deterioration. In addition, not only could TV harm people physically but it could also impact on people mentally in many cases. More and more violent behaviors are shown on TV today. As a result, they become persist obsessions in people’s mental and gradually lead them to violence in real life. Especially, young people’s fledgling brains are vulnerable to these stimuli. Many young criminals are found to commit crimes due to the fact that they simply imitate what they have seen on the screen. In short, if ignored, TV impact would result in long-lasting and head-achy problems in society. This is especially true when violent acts are committed by well-known action “heroes.” In addition, television programs show cartoon figures, as well as actors, committing violent acts. Using comic situations to depict violent themes causes further problems with the way in which young people view violence.

    In conclusion, this argument is still an issue be debated. While there are numerous factors to be considered, television viewing is still one of the most convenient indoor recreational activities, so to speak. Moreover, in my opinion children should concentrated on their studies more then watching television than watching TV.

So parents should know how to schedule their children time. Parents should not pampered their child too much.

    Children is active. If they just sit and watching television for a long time. They will not do any exercise such as at evening play bicycle with their friend or do some recreational activity. This can make their body and mind healthy. If they do exercise they can promote good blood circulating this will make they more smart and far from any diseases. If they just sit then eat and sleep. High chances for them to get obesity is high. When they are obese they are prone to heart diseases which can effect their study and daily life.

    There have a lot of way to fulfill children time without watching television program. Example, parents can send their children to music school to play piano, send to moral class so that this children have a good attitude and behavior. It is good to train this children to sport activity at early age such as football, netball and other sport that this children like. Parents also can buy for their children cartoon book that give lesson to their children development. As my conclusion, I can say that television program give more negative impact to children compare to benefit.

    THE BENEFITS OF THE TELEVISION PROGRAMS


    Television was one of media device that have advantages as well as disadvantages of television program. Where kids are concerned, television and movies get a bad rap, but with healthy viewing habits and parental supervision limited ‘screen time’ can be a positive or negative impact.

    Many people believe that television programs are no values for children but I am disagree because it will no value if the parents was not guide and supervise their child accordingly with disciplines. When the parents ignored their child to see all television programs, it will give negative impact that lead to the social problems as well as exposure to violence and immoral activities.

    A lot of television programs will give benefits to the child such as Animal Planet or National Geographic. This program will improve their education their education about command sense. Other than that, the child also can improve their communication skills as well as their languages by Sesame Streets program ‘alphabet’.

    Furthermore, the television programs also will develop their mind to be more creative by watching Art Attack program. The program will teach to build something from the recycle wastes. Other than that, it is for the entertainment purpose to lessen their boredom such as cartoon ‘spongebob squarepantz’.


    The television program also will teach the child about the important values and life lesson such as ‘wonderpets’ that is the cartoon program to teach the child to help each other as well as the teamwork in daily living. The kids also will build analytical skills by discussing of why, why, and why questions such as how the balloon can fly a way to the sky ?. The parents must tell the truth when they asking to encourage their learning.

    The conclusion is unnecessary to believe that the television programs are no value for children if the parents not guide and supervise the children wisely. Appreciate the advantages of television programs and use it wisely for the child. As we all know that the child was really anxious to learn something during their age.

    PROGRAMS ON TELEVISON ARE VALUEBLE FOR CHILDREN

    Television is one of the technologies that we can use for the entertainment and as a mass media to get information from there. But some people said that is no value for children. I disagree about that because there a lot of value television for children.
    One of the valuable is it can be as an entertainment for children especially for the children that was school at primary school. It can make them release their tension after spent whole time at school only.
    Television programs are providing a lot of learning programs at directly can improve our children knowledge for example Sesame Street which can teach them singing in English language. It also can improve level of proficiency which is include about how to being good manners, body language, eyes contact and their behaviour such as respect to older people.
    Not only that, it also can increase children knowledge especially on alphabet and it is useful for children catch their learning and it is more effective way. Unlike a book, television is a one-stop centre for information. Children also can expose to the outside surrounding for example they can know and be familiar with the animals that may be they cannot see face to face by watch Discovery Chanel.
    Furthermore, it also can increase creativity and imagination of children by watch entertainment cartoon or movie such as Harry Pott er. It can improve their creativity thinking because that movie are contains magic element. It also can improve their faith at religion by watch programmes that provide their religion info.
    The conclusion is, I agree that television programs are valuable to the children and parents need to guide them to watch the right programme that has been provided.

  75. QUESTION 4
    THE ADVANTAGES OF THE TELEVISION PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN

    Children can be describing as a people below 12 years old. In childhood, all the children must have they medium to learn something beside teaching module in school. Nowadays, many station television made up a program just for children but many people believe by giving children watching television have bad impacts on their growth process especially parents in rural area because they not exposed to the modernization even thought the urbanization have come to they area. This can be changed if their parents awake from all of this. From my observation, many people in rural areas especially in village have a television at their home. This time not like in 50th century.
    For me by giving children watching television has a many advantages from the disadvantages. Beside that, many parents at this time have their own carrier to do. So, they don’t have enough time to spend with their children. The action will parents take is giving permission to their children watch television but under the supervision from them. For the children around age of 4 to 6 years old, the good television program is Bunny and Friend and Sesame Street because this both program teach the children know the alphabet with the easy step to remember. Beside that, these programs teach children to create a word base on the alphabet. Other than that, on this stage of age they will able to improve their level of proficiency trough this both programs.
    For children around age 9 to 10 years old, they like to know something different surrounding them. The suitable television program for these children is like animal planet and TVIQ. They will be able to learn new thing that related with science and human being. Beside that, they will able to know the group of animal. Impacts of this program, children will try their own for something news. For children around age 11 to 12 years old, they start to use their brain to imagine something that out of a box. The suitable programs that have an imagination are like Harry Potter, Alice and The Wonderland and Barbie. Beside that, this level of ages also want know the history too. For Muslim side, the program like Haiwan Teladan is good ways to children to know their history of Islam such as the Prophet.
    For the conclusion, we all know that this television has own advantages for children growth. So the parents should not be too worried with their children. But parents must have supervision for their children.

  76. Television is a part of children’s where they spending more time base in their life schedule before enter school. Most children plug their self’s to the television world which full of imagination that make them interested to learn to convert their mind. Why do children like to watch television because of most the shows are more interesting animated shows and it is most fun programs that they get to learn with most excited creation.
    I am agreeing with the statement that television program are value for the children with the guide of their parents. There are many advantages and disadvantages of watching television not only for children. There are some main points of advantages with watching television mainly for children.
    Moreover, the number of quality children shows such as the popular preschool show such as Blues Clues, sesame street, branny and friends, art attack, high 5 grew and many more. It is because to improve their general knowledge in terms of to achieve in physical activities and education level. Preschoolers can get help learning the alphabet on public television, grade scholars can learn about wildlife on nature shows and parents can keep up with current events on the evening news .they can even learn new vocabulary. This can help them to improve their level of prophecy in high education level.
    On other hand, there is no doubt about television can be an excellent educator and entertainer. For entertainment, children are interested to be a part in the world of imagination such as Disneyland, Tom and Jerry, fairytales, English movies, rhymes and many more. Parents need to focus on important to monitor the content of television programming and set viewing limits to ensure that the children do not spend too much time to watch television programs. Television is not a negative influence to the children if the parents are play a part with monitor and guide their children to be more intelligent and positive thinkers.
    Conclusion, the parents are main responsible on their children. They must good guiders for their children because nowadays the children are more cleavers in everything. They first catch minder and think of creation a lot of imagination. So the parents must beware to this matter, they can watch television once a while. They shouldn’t be addicted of the unwanted programs.

  77. Children are a young human under 12 years old who is not yet an adult. Television has become very popular in quite a short period of time. Most of the people, especially of older generation consider television as a most profound source of news and information but televisions are also delivering a variety of different entertainment content. That is why I think that the time children spend watching TV should be controlled by their parents.
    The main reason would restrict children access to the television is the lack of educational program. Television has become commercial and this does not only mean that now have commercial breaks. It is also meaning that television companies’ show that content has highest ratings. It is quite obvious that educational programs have lower ratings than entertainment television shows for adult. In addition to that, a lot of television programs contain cruelty and violence. Those may not only be seen in action movie but also in the news programs for example, almost every week something terrible happens in the world that is shown in daily news, terrorist acts, explosions and war.
    Television is one of the indispensible parts of modern life and children have to know about other things in the world. It is also skill one of the best ways to get information that can help them to develop different skills. The child brain is easily retain things and watching some programmes from the television can make children exposed to certain fantasies and immoral act. Therefore I agree that television programs are of no value to children for the following reasons. Watching television programs can make children do unimaginable things. Watching adult programs can make them perform immoral acts influence from what have them seen.
    Children can do unimaginable things while watching television programs. Lets say a child watched a movie of super saving a kid that is falling from 10 storey building, the child then goes and jumped the cliff hoping that ‘superman’ will come and save him. A child can easily learn things through the programs on television and then imaging that it is real meanwhile it is all false. On the other hand, a child can commit immoral act of the watching some programs from the television, lets take for example, a child that watches two people kissing on the screen, he sees it and doesn’t think anything is wrong with it after all its on television. He then goes and practice what ever he has watched from the television.
    Parents should monitor what their children watching on television. The television companies also should participate in broadcast children programme to encourage them to have a good attitude, improve general knowledge, improve the level of proficiency, and also improve of their communication skills and many more. The television series should have many of moral value that can let the children know also practice it.
    Finally, a children that is below the age of 14 years old should not have anything doing close to the television. If a child need information, they should either ask the parents or need books to get the information. For child to be decent and grow as well as trained child, it is the parent duty to decide what the child should do with children spare time but not to watch adult movie or adult programs.

  82. As we know children are at growing and development stage that they learned so many new things in their life. One of the big things that influenced them is watching television programs. For me there have a lot of benefits from watching television. I said this because they are able to learn alphabet faster as example when they watching cartoon series such as Sesame Street they can learn how to recognize the alphabet better.
    Besides that, they also will become more creative when watching the program. Children are really faster in learning process. They will know the colours and also the draw by looking at television. After that the level of proficiency will improve. When they watching program at television they able to learn English and interested in speaking too. The National Geographic program such as animal planet can improve their general knowledge of the children.
    They will learn about the animal, plants and other things surrounding them. Furthermore, there have many entertainments program such as the singing program that they can enjoy watching it and can get some idea about their life at the same time make their brain working. As a conclusion, children not only learn something from their parents but also by watching television they can get many information and learning more than just watching their parents behaviour.
    But for the best effect, we must always observe the children to avoid they watching any programs that not good and not for their age now. The television of course gives social problem to them if we are not taking care of them when they watching the television at home. We must accompany them and also teach them.

    Many people believe that television programmed is of no value for children. I am agreed with the statement. Children is a child which is 12 years old and below. They cannot think more matured in this age. They just think about playful. Actually, the television programmed that allowed to children watching is a cartoon or English movie. There is more advantages television programs for children.
    Firstly, children will spend much time in front of television. Especially in weekend or school holiday. They know the television programmed at that day and they will wait the television programmed start in front of the television. Because of that, the children especially whose was started their school, will not have a focus in the study. They will feel more bored with the study. So, they will spend their time with watching television.
    Secondly, children will exposure to violence and unmoral act. For example television programmed which are shows about war and more socialize. It will effect in their attitude. On the other hand, a child can commit immoral act after watching some programs from the TV. Let take for example, a child that watches two people kissing on the screen, he sees it and does not think anything is wrong with it after all its own TV. So, there is nothing wrong with the act. He then goes and practice whatever he has watched from TV.
    Television is full of programs and commercials that depict risky behaviors such as sexual and substance abuse as cool, fun, and exciting and often there is no discussion about the consequences of drinking alcohol, doing drugs, smoking cigarettes and having premarital sex. For example, studies have shown that teens who watch many of sexual content on TV are more likely to initiate intercourse or participate in other sexual activities earlier than peers who do not watch sexually explicit shows. it is not healthy lifestyle.
    As a conclusion, television program are no value for children because children influence by the action on television. So that, parents must take their important role take care of their children from being affected. Study is most important for children more than watching television. Remember that parents must give concentration to their child.

    Question 4
    The entire parent wants their child to success in the future, get the great jobs and want them to be a good person. Many people believe that the television programs are no value for children. Television is a one thing that are uses to sent the information to the people.
    Personally, I think that watching TV brings children only benefits unless they spend in front of TV set less than a couple of hours daily. For the following reasons, which I will mention bellow, I believe that television plays an essential role in child’s development. Television can also be a fine teaching tool – there are many television shows on the air that are informative and educational. The right television shows can teach our children about morals and values as well as right from wrong. Educational television is not only for children however; Public television as well as cable television channels such as National Geographic and The History Channel serve as learning tools for children. In fact many colleges and universities use local channels to provide distance learners the opportunity to attend lectures given on television. Besides that it can increase the knowledge. For an example National Geographic that show the animals, people around the world and the environment. So, the children can use their mind creatively.
    However along with some positive sides it has its disadvantages as well like watching too much of television also affects your eye and nerves. Television creates such a spell on children and in some cases it also effects the elders that they actually lose their own opinion they feel whatever is being shown on television is correct and should be practiced as such. In such situation it is the responsibility of the broad caster to show what is safe to be shown on the television. But still several irresponsible television channels show content which is not be shown for every one like contents of sex, and violence. Besides that the children become lazy and don’t want to help their parent because they like to watch a cartoon. It also makes the child poor to socialize with the society.
    To reduce the problem are limits the time for the children to watching television. The parent also must control the program that has a sex and bad things that can influence the children to do the same things. Next, the parent also must bring the children to play an outdoor sport to prevent the children become shy and cannot communicate with the society. Ask the children to see and read the books after their watching the television program.
    The conclusion is the parent should manage their child in proper ways to watching a good program from the television.

  85. Question 4

    Television is one of the most important technologies that use in our life. Television is also one of the way that we can get knowledge and information others than newspaper, magazines and books. Not only that, it is also can give benefits to the entire group including the children. Many people believe that television programmes are of no value for children. This statement is not totally true. There are also some of the television programmes that are benefits to the children.

    There are many advantages that the children can get from watching the television programmes. One of them is they can improve their general knowledge by only watching television. Even though, some of the television programmes did not have any value to watch it, but there is still some television programmes that are valuable, such as Animal Planet. This programme can help them in more understand about the world of animal and on how it survives in its world. Not only that, there is also some programme that is can related science. They can learn and understand about what is science besides in the school. Normally, some of the children did not have any interest in reading the books. They can easily tend to more understand by watching it rather than reads the books.

    The children also need the entertainment too. Other than playing around with their friends and playing PS2, they also can enjoy their life by watching the television too. Almost children like to watch television especially the cartoon programme. For example, Ben 10, Tom and Jerry and The Spongebob Squarepant. Sometimes, even adult person watching these programme because it is so funny and enjoyable. Besides that, they also enjoying watching the reality programmes such as Academy Fantasia and movies too. This is may because of the influence by their family members. However, they will not easily influence with the immoral part since they are watching it under supervision of their parents.

    Not only that, some of the television programmes also has its important value and life lessons that are useful for them. For example, Finding Nemo. There are many moral values that the children can get from this movie and they should apply it in their life. For example, we should appreciate our friendship and love with each other especially with family members. If we understand about what the programme is about, we will get the message from its story. It is depends on us on how we are going to judge for each programmes whether it is valuable or not.

    As a conclusion, there are many advantages that the children can get from watching the television. Actually, almost all the television programmes have its own benefits, knowledgeable and valuable. It depends on us, on how we going to apply it in our life. Even though, it also has its disadvantages, children will not easily to get influence if their parents supervise them.

    The television is one of the most powerful tools that can influence the young and impressionable.It is like a two-edged sword that can either do harm or good depending on what parents allow the child to watch.Children like sound and motion pictures.They simply absorbs whatever knowledge,values and behavior that is projected on television and no time parents see them acting out scenes in their life.

    The child learn the behavior from this television programme.They take the role model from their preferred programme,and behave like them.To a young child,this role model is always right. Children also like to do the way they are talking.Quite often,the child would spent more time watch their favorite television progamme that can influence the good behavior for them.

    Religious teachings have the capacity to change the child's life.Its impact on a child's life is immense.A child who is exposed to religious teachings will learn and apply the moral and ethical values imparted to himin his life.They learn such as sharing,love,kindness,and faith.All these values will be reflected in their life.The influence of such teachings on a child behavior may for purpose the influence is television.

Many programme in different type that show in television. Each level of age has their programme that suitable for their want to watch. From child to folk. But, in child growth, many people believe that television programs are not value for children.
    Actually, what they show on television use for child development and each of what they show in television programme bring the value for children. One of the advantages through television is, the child can learn to be more creative and increase their imagination. Many programme that teach children how to be more creative and one of that is the programme named is art attack. Besides that, when child watch cartoon, this is can increase their imagination and make their mind becomes more open about in this world life.
    Besides that, when child watch television, this is can increase the child level of proficiency such as, their attitude, communication skill, and how child have clever thinking. In their attitude, they can have their own attitude with the more positive attitude in themselves. Child also will follow the communication skill depends on what they watching. It is normal when child ask many question. This is because, child have the curiousity about what they watch. From that, it will make child be more think clever.
    In other understanding, the child can improve their general knowledge through watching television programme. One of the channel that show the general knowledge to children is National Geographic that contain how animal live in this world with human and else. From this, they did not just can improve their general knowledge but expand their mind to learn something new.
    The conclusion is children development actually depends on how parent teach them and use the facilities in this era wisely.

    Question 4: television
    Television is an inescapable part of modern culture. We depend on TV for entertainment, news, education, culture, weather, sports and even music, since the advent of music videos.
    With the recent explosion in satellite and digital speciality channels, we now have access to a plethora of both good quality and inappropriate TV content. In this crowded television environment, the key for parents is to search out high quality TV programs for their kids, and whenever possible, enjoy them together as a family.
    Television offers lots of benefits to kids, including ; Shared viewing gives family members of all ages an opportunity to spend time together. Parents can use TV as a catalyst to get kids reading, following up on TV programs by getting books on the same subjects or reading authors whose work was adapted for the programs. Besides that, great television can teach kids important values and life lessons.
    TV programs often explores controversial or sensitive issues, which can make it easier for parents and kids to discuss them. Educational programming can develop young children's socialization and learning skills. The channel of documentaries can help develop critical thinking about new thing and the world. Cultural programming can open up the world of music and art for young people since they are still babies.
    Television watching doesn't have to be passive. It can prompt questions, kindle curiosity, or teach activities to pursue when the set is off. Parents don't have to like every show their children choose, becouse young people need their own district culture. But parents should trust that a program's creators understand and respect how children grow and learn. Young children believe that television reflects the real world..
    Some program creators see young people as consumers to be sold to. Others see them as students to be educated, as future citizens to be engaged in the community, or simply as children, whose work is play.
    As well as my opinion, television is the best media that can improve our child in growing and their education. In the other words, watching the television for the younger people especially the children giving a lot of advantages in their live also in their development.

  89. Television is considered as one of the most powerful media these days not just for learning but also as means of communication. Television brings important historical events, both positive and negative, directly into our homes and helps us to improve our knowledge by watching some useful programs such as quiz programs ,sports ,documentary as well as the news that reported directly to us for what actually happened around the world stories.For children, it is one of their study method to know their surrounding before they can enter the school.The studies shown that
    kids and teens from 8 to 18 years spend nearly 4 hours a day in front of a television screen.

    Many people believe that the television programs are of no value for children .For me, I agree with that statement because there are many disadvantages instead of advantages of watching television among the children.As we all know,children are like a sponge.This is because whatever they have watched and learned in the television they are just absorbed easily without knowing whether that things is good for them or not. In such situation it is the responsibility of the broad caster to show what is safe to be shown on the television. But still several irresponsible television channels show content which is should not be shown for every one like contents of sex and violence especially for children views.

    Besides that, it is a wasting their valueable time for children to just watching the useless serials and movies almost the whole day .Furthermore, they are willing to spend one to two hours for watching their favourite cartoon such as masked rider series either than study or finish their homework that have been asked by their school teacher.Because of that, many of students in primary school did not finish their homework on time.The effect is they cannot give full attention in class and will disturb them in their learning process session.Seriously,their examination will be very bad because of this bad attitude in the future if this situation happen again.

    Moreover, kids may become desensitized to violence and more aggressive. Television violence sometimes begs for imitation because violence is often promoted as a fun and effective way to get what we want. Many violent acts are perpetrated by the "good guys" whom kids have been taught to emulate. Even though kids are taught by their parents that it is not right to hit, television says it is alright to bite, hit, or kick if they are the good guy. This can lead to confusion when kids try to understand the difference between right and wrong. And even the "bad guys" on television are not always held responsible or punished for their actions. Other than that, television is full of programs and commercials that shown risky behaviors such as sex and substance abuse as cool, fun, and exciting. And often, there is no discussion about the consequences of drinking alcohol, doing drugs, smoking cigarettes, and having premarital sex. And although they have banned cigarette ads on television, children can still see plenty of people smoking on programs and movies airing on television. This kind of "product placement" makes behaviors like smoking and drinking alcohol seem acceptable. In fact, children who watch 5 or more hours of television per day are far more likely to begin smoking cigarettes than those who watch less than the recommended 2 hours a day.
    For the conclusion,.there are many disadvantages compared to advantages of watching television that contents of useful programs among the children if not monitor by their parents.The children is very importance for our future generation and an asset for the country development .Last but not least, the parents should monitor their children by limiting the total hours of watching television per day and the type of programs that their children can watch for their brain growth and development.

    Through what they experience on television, children are forced into adulthood at too young of an age. The innocence of youth is lost when children stare endlessly at a screen displaying the horrors of murder, rape, assault, devastating fire, and other natural disasters. Although these are occurrences in everyday life, things adults have grown accustomed to hearing about, children do not have the maturity level to deal with these tragedies appropriately. Children's behavior changes because they become desensitized to the violence. There are many preventative techniques that can be applied to ensure that negativity on television will not interfere with a child's development.
    Children see violent acts on television and make an attempt to process it, and in doing so, their innocence is lost. According to Dr. David Elkind, president emeritus, National Association for the Education of Young Children, "Television forces children to accommodate a great deal and inhibits the assimilation of material. Consequently, the television child knows a great deal more than he or she can ever understand. This discrepancy between how much information children have and what they can process is the major stress of television. Children's minds are not fully developed; therefore, they can not be expected to understand the violence on television.
    The media, specifically television, has become more and more violent, in not all too subtle ways, exposing many children to behaviors not appropriate to a young audience. Remember "the Menendez brothers, who ruthlessly shot their parents as they ate ice cream and watched TV in their family room, planted in children's minds the worst possibility that a parent could die violently at the hands of a child. Some parents believe that watching television is bad for their children. So, they try to restrict their children from watching TV. However, other parents think that there is nothing bad in watching TV. Personally, I think that watching TV brings children only benefits unless they spend in front of TV set less then a couple of hours daily. For the following reasons, which I will mention bellow, I believe that television plays an essential role in child's development.

    First of all, television helps a child to extent his or her range of interests. Children can find out many new things and make many exiting discoveries for themselves. In addition to these practical benefits television improves children's vocabulary, their memory and gives them the opportunity to gain more knowledge. I think it is very essential for a child. Of cause, someone can say that there are plenty of different recourses of information such as books and teachers. But, I think, in our modern world children must learn faster and use all contemporary technology in order to succeed.

    The Good, the Bad, and the Television
    the television originated as a rare status symbol. During the 1950’s, “The Golden Age of Television,” the amazing status symbol, became more affordable and many more families purchased them. Now, at least one television resides in almost every home, and thousands of channels cover constant programming. TV: the central medium for entertainment in nearly every home in America.

    People watch TV for several different reasons. Relaxation is one of the most popular motives for watching. Some people seek out the entertainment that television has to offer. Educational programming remains often sought out by countless viewers. Children learn the alphabet, counting, manners, and foreign languages from shows such as “Dora the Explorer” and “Blues Clues.” Many families watch TV together, as a source of family time.
    There is also a great deal of negativity associated with television viewing. Many citizens have claimed addiction to TV, which caused them to lose their jobs, break up marriages, gain weight, and suffer from a loss of IQ points. Violent programming is credited with the blame for increased crime rates and children becoming meaner.

    Work is always in progress to accommodate the viewing population. Scientists and programming analysts highly recommend limiting the amount of time anyone watches TV, especially children

    Children? what we know about the phrase children ? we can define that children is a human that under age of twelve years old. Everyone like children and the best one for them . as we know, children like to watch television programmes which contains variety of color and characteristic in the programmes such as teletubbies. This programme can attract them to watch it everyday.
    I do not agree that television programmes are of no value for children. Children can get many value by watching television such as they are able to learn alphabet in early years. In the sesame street and bunny and friends programme, they teach children how to know about alphabet. From the alphabet, they can make sentence.
    Furthermore, they also learn how to be creative. So that, children will use their left brain. For example, art attack programme, sometimes show how to make something new from recycle things. Plus, this will also save our earth.
    As we know, children attract to watch about another life in this world such as animals. They will know how the animal communicate, fertile and others. So , children will know, not only human live in this world but there are another life also.
    Other than that, from the channel TV IQ and National Geography, children can improve their general knowledge. We take an example from National Geography programme, they shows us about what happen around us such as ice break, tsunami, volcano and others. From that, children will know how and why these phenomena occurs.
    These are the various benefits of watching television. Restrictions should be in place for children and adults also should watch the right kind of programmes. This will help the person to reap the benefits that arise out of watching television

    Television is a truly a gift of modern science to children. How many of you parents out there agree to this? Because of the numerous channels and programs in TV, many childrenstick to it almost all their time at home which often leads to the consideration among parents that whether they should forbid their children from watching it or not. It is a fact that the many advantages that TV has to offer for kids cannot be overlooked. We can take a look at some of those advantages that Television can offer for kids.
    Have you ever watched Sesame Street or Blues Clues? Those are the best learning shows that truly have a great deal of educational value. And, why do we say that? Those shows help kids to be extremely susceptible to learning as they can easily relate to the characters. Kids often have very good imaginations and watching television contributes a major part to that. It is always recommended to allow your kids to watch those shows that you approve of, enabling them to stretch or extend their imaginations.
    Some parents never allow their children to watch news. There are a lot of bad and unwanted things that happens in this world and that is undisputed. However,children at a certain age should be allowed to watch news programs so that they are more aware of the world and the things that are happening around them.
    Even though Television does provide some benefits, it is advisable that you keep a close eye on what your kids are watching. Parents should decide on what their kids watch as there are many programs that may not be suitable for them to see.

    TELEVISIONS PROGRAMME FOR CHILDREN

    Television is a items that really must need to all the family in this country and also others country and the level of age that many see the television is a children. So, not suitable if have statement that said television programme are no value for children. I’m not agree if have the statement like that because the television programmes also have the value for children and only their parents must know the right programmes for their children.
    In the television now have many programme’s that give a value to children’s. For example, documentary and encyclopedia. This channel will give a knowledge about a live in other country especially about the life and culture. Other than that, the television’s programme now have many discovery channel about the animal and human. So, children’s will get more knowledge although they didn’t go anywhere and only see at home. Other than that, this channel also can give motivation and spirit for children to be more independant and responsible person about how to manage their life when have a family soon. It also can give the children more creative in manage live if have any problem without their parent’s soon.
    Besides that, television’s now also have many channel about the race and region that will give more information about religion for their future. Other than that, it will give the advantage for their self and also for the country. For example, in muslim we have motivation about our religion and that will give the advantage for this country to avoid the social problem if they know about sins in their religion. For example, we can avoid raped, kill and many other cases. Besides that, it also can teach our children how to respect and be more responsible to their parent’s in the future.
    In conclusion, if have statement that said television’s programme are no value for children is wrong but their parents must know which programme is suitable for their children’s to bo more responsible person in the future.

    Q4.
    TELEVISION FOR CHILDREN

    Children watch so much television today. Many people believe that television program are no value for children and I agree that fact also.many disadvantages by allowing our children to view television.Alot of program on television that not suitable for children and wasting our children time.children today not like children before,a lot of gadget now day influencing children to doing in door activity and not health for them.
    They also play video games, watch movies and use computers much more than children did a few years ago. As children do this, they tend to lessen other important activities that aid in development of reading, social and some types of thinking skills. Other concerns for children include that they maintain good eyesight and physical fitness.

    Studies show that long periods of television may hamper development of the pre-frontal cortex -- the area of the brain responsible for planning, organizing and sequencing behavior for self-control, moral judgment and attention.

    Some researchers believe this may be one explanation of the widespread problem of attention deficit disorder and some behavior problems. While some children have always been more prone than others to attention problems, cases have increased, and studies link the increase to the concurrent rise of television watching in the day-to-day activities of children.

    The visual nature of television or other media stimuli do not develop the part of the brain responsible for language. Children who watch too much television and do not read enough may have trouble paying attention and listening to comprehend language.

    It's important that parents take time reading out loud to their children and help them develop their own reading and comprehension skills. Many researcher suggests that parents make plans with their children for weekly television viewing. Select shows that you will allow children to watch instead of leaving the television on all the time.

    Children who have televisions or computers in their rooms tend to watch more programs and play on the computer with less supervision. Adults should be available to watch with their children to ensure they view appropriate programs. Emphasize that homework comes first and that it requires a student's full attention, without the distraction of television.

  101. Television is a very important medium that provides us with a lot of information. In fact, it gave us so much fact more than nonfiction advertisement. I strongly agree with the statement because it can prompt questions, kindle curiosity, or teach activities to pursue when the set is off.
    We don’t need to have family day out. It’s enough with enjoy watching television together can make children know that family come first than others. In fact they learn how to appreciate their family. Of the new movies that are released each year, you can bet that several of them are based. Parents can challenge kids to read a book with the promise of going to the theatre or renting the movie when they finish it. Or, kids may see a movie and like it so much that they decide to read the book. Discuss the differences between the book and the movie to help kids develop thinking skills.
    Most kids are not able to visit the rain forest or see a giraffe in the wild, but many have seen these things on TV. Fortunately, educationally minded producers have given us many shows and movies that allow viewers to see amazing footage of nature, animals, society, and other peoples.
    Kids and adults alike can learn from this type of media and gain a greater appreciation for our world and the animals and other people who inhabit it.
    Kids also like learning activities more if they involve beloved characters. Pre-schooler’s shows are especially effective for generating ideas for learning activities and using characters to motivate kids. Children are influenced by people they see on television, especially other kids. Obviously, this can have a negative result, but it can be positive too.

    Lately, kids TV shows have begun promoting some positive agendas such as healthy living and environmental awareness. As kids see their favourite characters making positive choices, they will be influenced in a good way. Parents can also point out positive traits that characters display and thereby spark valuable family discussions.

    At the end, we should appreciate this kind of medium because it helps our child growth and development. Moreover, media truly can have a positive effect on children, but it is up to the parents, caregivers and educators in their lives to ensure that kids viewing experiences are enriching and not damaging.

  102. Many people believe that television programs are of no value for children. I really agree about it. From what we heard in urban area, television media has become a pervasive force in the lives of families around the world today. Television programs that contain profane or disrespectful language also worry parents with young children. It is because, it has become very common for television programs of each and every kind to show characters expressing impolite,rude,and insulting utterance to one another.

    Another than that too much television can be detrimental the children who consistently spend more than 4 hours per day watching TV are more likely to be overweight because they are lack of exercise. The kids who view violent acts are more likely to show aggressive behaviour but also fear that the world is scary bad that something bad will happen to them. With that, TV character often depict risky behaviours, such as smoking and drinking , and also reinforce gender-role and racial stereotypes, TV violence sometimes begs for imitation because violence is often promoted as a fun and effective way to get what we want, that make kids become desensitized to violence and more aggressive.

    Young kids are particularly frightened by scary and violent images. Simply telling kids that those images are not real won’t console them, because they cannot yet distinguish between fantasy and reality, on the health experts have long linked excessive TV-watching, kids are inactive and tend to snacks foods. TV is full of programs and commercials that depict risky behaviour such as sex and substance abuse as cool, fun,and exciting. And often, there’s no discussion about the consequences of drinking alcohols, doing drugs , smoking cigarettes and having premarital sex.

    Because of these factors, many parents believe that television programs send their youth the wrong kids of messages. The emulation of this poor behaviour by their children is something they wish to avoid at all costs, and they have accordingly decided to ban television in their household for these reasons.

The show helped children build their vocabulary and pronunciation skills, also it built their intelligence and social skills, such as be kind and respect to each other.

  106. QUESTION 4

    The technology has brought a lot of advantage in our living. The television can give us a lot of information, for example, we been exposed to somewhere that we never been before, for example, we watch television program that contain a lot of info on that particular country like Africa for example.

    This kind of technologies also gives big impact to people especially children. Many people believe the television programs are no value to the children. I agree with this statement. This is because, when the children start to watch TV, they tends to spend most of their time on TV, and start to bother whatever things happened around them. Nowadays, TV program that can generate the mind to be more critical and creative thinking is payable. Whoever wants to watch this kind of TV program, they need to pay. That is one of the reason why parent did not encourage their children to watch TV because its waste of money and time. Therefore the children watch the TV program like cartoon and waste their time watching it and they also start to lose their focus on study. because of children at age 6-12 years, their brain absorb like a sponge, and this indicate the children to exposed to the violence when they watched the TV program for adult, it’s becoming no wondering why children these day has the guts to act like an adult. For example at school, the student who watched the TV program like wrestling, they practice it to their friends, and that leads to gangsterism and bully. The TV program also has turned our children as young as age of 12 years into a young and good smoker, this is one of the result when the parent did not look after their children when they watched TV.

    As the conclusion, the TV program can give a lot of benefits to our children, when the parent has selected the correct TV program for their children, our children is going to replace the next prime minister, don’t just because of the TV program we lose the children who has the bright future to rule our country and turned our country to more developing country that all known to the other successful country.

  107. Many critize television programs being bad for children. But I agree that television programs are value for children. Nowadays, television has become the most popular media of human kind. By watching television programs, we can see many things happening in the surrounding us in the world, therefore it help us to catch and avoid being dropped back from the word of information.

    They also benefits as means of entertainment as well as learning. Children learn to speak new words from television programs such as Sesame Street and etc. Before a child begins to go to school, they know just the language that is commonly spoken at home. Television programs help to introduce the language to the child for communication outside as some of them only speak mother language at home.

    Television programs which are shown in Discovery Channel, National Geography can build children general knowledge. Education programs which are shown in TVIQ channel increase the knowledge of children. It also helps to increase the knowledge of children. It also helps to increase the intelligence level of children by stimulating their brains to higher level, this will decrease the degeneration of the brain cell because they are being kept alive.

    Children loved to get entertained always. Television programs such as cartoons is the best programs to make children to be entertain. Disney channel, Cartoon Network channel plays a big role in it. Recommended shows like Dora the Explorer and Barney are nice programs which tells about various things like good habits and moral in the form of simple stories. Children usually love these programs and understand these teachings too. Not only that, programs like art attack, develops each child in the level of creativity and their imagination level also would be increase by watching cartoons.

    There are also some disadvantages for children for watching television programs. Children tends to be influenced of immoral acts which are shown in television programs. There is violence on television programs and children who spend more time in it tends to be more aggressive.

    Watching television is beneficial to children and should be encouraged when being used as learning tool. Television viewing is a matter of habit, limits should be developed by parents from early childhood to prevent it. Excess of anything is bad. So, television programs viewing within limits is not harmful, but gives us value for children also.

    Children is generally means a human between the stages of birth and the puberty. Through television program, it can help kids learn about a variety of subjects. Children’s shows, whether they bill themselves as educational or not, may offer opportunities to spark learning. For instance, kid wowed by the Red Eyed Tree Frog on Go, Diego, Go!.In this way, kids are able to see how fun learning can be and establish a habit of finding out more when things interest them.
    Through media, kids can explore places, animals, or things that they couldn’t see otherwise. Most kids are not able to visit the rain forest or see a giraffe in the wild, but many have seen these things on television. Thankfully, educationally minded producers have given us many shows and movies that allow viewers to see amazing footage of nature, animals, society, and other peoples. Kids and adults alike can learn from this type of media and gain a greater appreciation for our world and the animals and other people who inhabit it.
    Television and movies can motivate children to read books. Of the new movies that are released each year, several of them are based on books. Discuss the differences between the book and the movie to help children to develop thinking skills. It also help kids learn the truth about advertising. Advertising may be annoying, but it does present yet another opportunity to develop kids’ thinking skills. As a parent, they can explain the purpose of advertising to children and alert them to any deceptive tactics. Allow them to analyze the methods used by advertisers to sell a product.
    Good role models and examples on television can positively influence kids. Children are influenced by people they see on television, especially other kids. Obviously, this can have a negative result, but it can be positive too. Lately, kids' television shows have begun promoting some positive agendas such as healthy living and environmental awareness. As kids see their favourite characters making positive choices, they will be influenced in a good way. Parents can also point out positive traits that characters display and thereby spark valuable family discussions.

    Nowadays no more houses without television. All most each and every house having television to entertain them. The television programs all always attract people by television by many programs such as cartoon, English such as National Geography and also animal planet. Children programs not value for the children. But my opinion I disagree this statement. Television programs give a lot of value for the children.
    Firstly, children get more general knowledge by watching television. As a parents or guardian we can teach children about daily living activity about good attitude, moral values and more but not general knowledge. We can get general knowledge by reading news paper, books, and listen to radio and watching television. So children’s choose television as knowledge producer. They get general knowledge. When they watch programs such as national geography and animal planets.
    Children who watch television programs or cartoons can get a good creative mind. Example that make children creative art attack. This program shows how to draw some picture or colouring and more. When children’s show this kind of programs they will try again and build up their creativity. Some time the parents also can see the children growth in their creativity.
    Other then that, children can learn alphabet very well. There is a programs that teach children alphabet with songs and music. That program really helps the children to learn and remember the alphabet very well. This make easier to parents to teach them. Sometime parents will shock because they teach the children will learn from television. Not only the words alphabets the children can know about some things for a example in some programs will introduce some thing such as fruits, vegetables, furniture writing accessory and more. In this type programs they will show the things and say the purpose. So that children easy to learn.

The communication skill of the children also will improve. Some time parents will by some CD the children watch.

  111. Good values in television programmes


    ‘Children’ this is a beautiful word to everyone who enjoy their life peacefully. Every single married couple wish to have children as their happiness and to extend their generation. Children are said to be the god’s precious gift to very human. Furthermore, children are categorised from the age of 5 -12. Within this period of time they grow rapidly. This is the moment where they can be curved nicely as a good human being.
    Television programmes has been a mass communication in the technology world. In every develop country television is a must in a house for entertainment purpose. So now how do these programmes help in the growth of children? As for me, the television programmes give good response in the learning skill of every child.
    Nowadays, many television programmes are meant to children. Even they have started it long time ago programmes like Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse and Tom and Jerry. These are cartoons that can increase the level of imagination. Imagination is very important in study field and in working environment. Without imagination new thing would not created in this planet.
    Other than that, television programmes such as Art attack is more to the creativity of the children. Children are does not show interest in creativity but these programmes would increase their eagerness to be creative.
    Not only children but everybody needs to have a good general knowledge.
    Without general knowledge it is very hard to be competent among the well educated. General knowledge can be gain by children from the programmes organised by National Geographic, Animal Planet and History channels. Recently TVIQ has helped a lot in the children public exam.
    By watching good quality television programmes children learn languages. Nowadays, English is a dominant language used worldwide. Many Asian people use poor English, to avoid this situation to prolong it is advisable to watch movies like Harry Potter and Pirates Of Caribbean.
    From all the advantages above we can conclude that television programmes are more to have good values compared to bad values. Parent should choose the programmes that their children watch.

    Television is no values for the children

    Television has been introduced since 1935 and the television called “Mechanical Television Era”. Then today we can see that the technology has improved by plasma television from Samsung Company. Besides that, television is one of the sources for media to send information and advertisement. Televisions also become one of the channels to spread news and campaign. There also have many bad effect to the children because the can effect behavior of the children.
    The study has been done to the children by Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF), two-third of infant and toddlers watch television average for 2 hours a day. Then, kids under age 6 watch an average of about 2 hours of screen media a day, primarily TV and videos or DVD. Besides that, kids and teens 8 to 18 years spend nearly 4 hours a day in front of a TV screen and almost 2 additional hours on the computer (outside of schoolwork) and playing video games. This prove that they like to waste their time watching the television. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that kids under 2 years old not watch any TV and that those older than 2 watch no more than 1 to 2 hours a day of quality programming. They have been proving that children like to watch television than the elders.
    Besides that, children who consistently spend more than 4 hours per day watching TV are more likely to be overweight. As we know overweight can cause many harmful diseases to the human such as cardiac failure, failure and hypertension. Furthermore, kids who view violent acts are more likely to show aggressive behavior but also fear that the world is scary and that something bad will happen to them. They will tend to follow the action in their school such as bullying and fighting with another. This also can involve in social problem such as vandalism and gangsters. This has been approving in 20,000 American child witness violent act on television by age 18.

  113. The television make children to change their behavior because program that been shows is full with violent and sex. Besides that, television also advertises the alcohol drink, cigarettes and shows the premarital sex. This will influence children to follow the bad attitude from the television and increase the social problem in the community. For example, studies have shown that teens who watch lots of sexual content on TV are more likely to initiate intercourse or participate in other sexual activities earlier than peers who don't watch sexually explicit shows.
    In the nutshell, television program have been affect the children behavior and attitude. Furthermore, the children are one of the country treasures because they will be the leader of our country in future. As we know, in developing country must have a great leader and to maintain country development we need great leader for the future that we choose from our children now. The great country depends on the children in it, so the great children is born from the great education in the country provide and how the children behave.

    Some parents believe that watching television is bad for their children. So, they try to restrict their children from watching TV. However, other parents think that there is nothing bad in watching TV. Personally, I think that watching TV brings children only benefits unless they spend in front of TV set less then a couple of hours daily. For the following reasons, which I will mention bellow, I believe that television plays an essential role in child's development. First of all, television helps a child to extent his or her range of interests. Children can find out many new things and make many exiting discoveries for themselves such as they have entertainment after they finish their school homework and back from school.
    Besides, to these practical benefits television improves children’s vocabulary and alphabet. The are study the alphabet and vocabulary together with enjoyment so they will not feel bored. Then, watching cognitive programs helps children to learn more about wild life, our environment and about the importance of preserving our forest and wild animals that live there. Second of all, theirs memory also will improve through language, thinking and communication skills such as they can remember the simple words from the cartoon they watch.
    Moreover, the can be creative and imagination through tv programs. They have programs that can teach children how to be creative and imagination such as ‘LEARN FOR ART’. Then, they have opportunity to gain more knowledge. Scientists say that a child should not watch TV more then 40 minutes successively. For example, my mother always made us have a break after watching TV more then half an hour and let our eyes rest for several minutes before turning on the TV again. I think it is the best solution. . I think it is very essential for a child. Of cause, someone can say that there are plenty of different recourses of information such as books and teachers.
    But, I think, in our modern world children must learn faster and use all contemporary technology in order to succeed. To sum up, I believe that television gives children and all people the opportunity to learn what can not be learn from books. Television and movies in particular allow people to feel the reality and see what they will most likely not be able to see in their lives. Personally, when I was a child I liked to watch cognitive programs about wild animals

    Q: 2
    Television has many program nowdays especially for childrens. Childrens dyeing to watch certain program. Many people believes that the television program are have no value for children. For this statement I disagree. Childrens should watch television program that made for children.
    Regarding to this discussion childrens must watch television program to improve their language, grammar and vocabulary. The example is barney and friends, dora the explorer and many. Not only that it make our children to be more creativity by watching art attack.
    Childrens are prone to ask many questions to develop their thinking and the best program is national geography, discovery and animal planet. Normally the answer for their question will be on this kind of programmes. Growing childrens like to watch science and the experiments, Tv IQ playing wonderful role in this term. This channel conducting educational programmes to primary school students. This kind of television program improving chilrends value.
    The discussion regarding the quality of children's television deals with issues of how much time children should spend watching television and what kinds of television programs should be made available to them. Child development experts caution that smaller children (aged two and up) be allowed no more than two hours of television per day. Children younger than two years old, they say, should be allowed no television at all.
    Parents wishing to avoid "television addiction should take steps to limit the child's access to the family's set early on, and maintain the restricted. Parents should also watch the programs with the children, to make sure they understand its content and to answer questions the children might have.

  118. Nowadays we can see that more children are exposed to television more than textbooks and educational materials. This is not weird because parents in this millennium are so busy with their work and spend more time on finding money and materials rather than spend time with their children. So, these opportunity well used by the children who don’t have the attention from their parents to spend their time by watching television.
    I’m strongly agree with the statement that television programs are no value for children. Watching television is not a big matter but the issue arise when the child is exposed to a program that not suitable for their age to watch. As we all know that young children’s brain are like sponge that can absorb as much as they can especially visual aspect. This will lead them to learn more and faster.
    Firstly, when the children left unguided they are tend to view things that they thought is right. The children normally take the adult as the role model and they will start to imitate at what they have been seen which could been wrong. So, this can be the powerful influence in developing system and shaping behavior. For example, when the children watching a kissing scene with a couple it could change their perception on certain things and they will try to do it with their members if they are left behind by the parents.
    On the other hand children are also will be influence by the language that the media using. It is because most of the time, they are not using the proper language and words and this will attract the children very fast and they will started to used the language in their daily living. So, their manner of talking will be change due to the influence of the program that they watch on the television.
    Moreover , sitting too long in front of the television also lead to health problem such as to eye. It make the eyes to be very tired when the whole day is spend by just watching the television. On the other side, by watching television also children are not able to socialize with other because they never go out from the home to mix with friends and spend the whole day by sitting in front of the television and doing only indoor activity.
    Last but not least, the conclusion is no matter how excellent is the technology it still bring negative effect to the children below 14 years old. From the above we can say that parents should play a good role in managing their children’s spare time. So that they wont be able to watch the adult program that they shouldn’t watch in their age.

    Television is one of the sources of media transfer or also known as media entertainment. As well as getting latest information about current issues or global issues of the world and about environmental development from time to time.Hence, television play an important roles in our life to make us updated about the changes of the world issues from time to time.Hence,we will be alert regarding the developmental changes around us. Generally,television is a good sources of information and news for the adult and older people.But, for the children television play the role of entertainment for them.Thus,television may give an influenced to the children by which can be good or bad influenced to the children itself.
    Hence,parents play an important roles to control their children exposure to the television. So that,I strongly agreed that television programs give no value for children. Besides, addicted to watch television programe among the children especially towards the cartoon give no value and making them lack of exercise or less exposure to do physical activity which can lead to obesity. Many people also feel the desire to watch a favourite television show every day or every week and neglect social commitments and therefore becoming anti-social.Hence,the development of the children towards the social activities may become worse and did not open minded. As the children having social activities indoors. As result,when facing with people outdoors the children may feel uncomfortable and low of skills in socialize and also having communication problem in making friends.

    In addition,the advantages of watching television is the violence and sex scenes exposure. If not controlled by the parents children may be influenced to copy the action made which is bad to be heard. Many of us find shows with crime or violence entertaining but these are not suitable for children of young ages. These scenes are practically common on crime dramas. Children may not intentionally be being exposed but by simply being in or near the same room as an older child or adult watching the programme. With children being exposed to these scenes it can corrupt there innocent minds leading them in some extreme cases become violent to other children. It can also lead to more permanent problems such as violence or evil thoughts well into adulthood. Fortunately this can be easily avoided or reversed by not allowing young children to view these programmes by placing them in a different room from the television or sending them to bed.
    In conclusion television is perhaps the world's greatest invention though it is possible it will one day be replaced by something resembling a computer it is still indispensable in todays modern world. Television however has advantages and disadvantages.It can be an educational, multi-sensory communication devise that takes up our time to exercise or our family time it can also have scenes that corrupt young minds. As Winston Churchill once said 'the best things are either immoral or bad for you' television is best in moderation. So next time you're bored don't turn on the television go out and play some sport. Live a healthy life to live in a pink of health.

    ADVANTAGES OF TV PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN
    Television is the entertainment that we can get even we are at home. Nowadays, if at home got astro, they will get more channel which is contain entertainment, news, cartoon and education . I agree if they say the television program will give an education to the children because most of the children like to watch television.
    All children below 12 years like to watch television because from there they can get more entertainment. From the channel that they watch, they can catch the certain word and they will say it. Most of communication skill they learn from the television.
    Now, got many education channel that they can watch example Barney and friends. When got cartoon channel that can give an education, they will learn more. They will recognize certain alphabet or word that they hear. They will learn slowly through Televison and can improve their communication skills and the grammar. The example of communication skills is eye contact and the ability to explain it using body language.
    For general knowledge, they can watch channel animal planet or national geographic. This channel commonly can give general knowledge to the children. Beside that, got channel that teach how to respect the older. The example of the program we can get through malay program for example Haiwan Teladan. The program show the children how to maintain a good manner and give respect to the parents and the older person.
    The program that can improve communication skills for the children is Tom Tom Bak. It is a malay program that many children will attend the program. The program most can improve children communication skills. From there, they can learn how to speak, explain and use their body language.

One of the method they will let their children learn through television. The conclusion is, most of television program now can give a lot of knowledge include the education about social life. The television will be function in 24 hours and the children will sit in front of the television with their toys.

    Nowadays, television comes as an important thing for the peoples to survive. Watching television has always been considered as something harmful for children. For me, watching television is one of the most values for children. When children stay in front of the television for several hours, they are most likely to decrease their attention span especially when it pertains to their studies. Sometime, the children can remember the dialog some of the channel. Not just in malay language but also in English. Because watching Television is not so bored like reading books. And they also can absorb some information from Television. By watching Television we can see many thing happened in the surrounding us world. There are actually can bring some benefits that children can get. Television is important form of communication for many years as it brings many important historical events either it negative or positive. It can affect people moreover on children, because at this stage, children are learning and needs some information. I strongly deny the fact that television programs are of no value for children because it is not true.

    Most kids plug into the world of television long before they enter school. The first 2 years of life are considered a critical time for brain development. TV and other electronic media can get in the way of exploring, playing, and interacting with parents and others, which encourages learning and healthy physical and social development. Language development also improves when kids watch TV moderately and when the TV shows being viewed are educational ones. Aside from language development, children at a young age are also able to learn the alphabet, numbers, shapes, and colors when these subject matters are taught by the shows that they view. At times, learning the basics on the alphabet and other subject matters are much easier when animatedly taught by educational programs than teaching them to children in rote. This is due to the way that these topics are tackled and attractively presented to children. Although the dangers that children are exposed to when watching TV are always present such as having a decrease in their attention span and the possibility of inculcating negative behaviors seen on TV, it still can be attributed to the control that parents exercise over their children when it comes to TV viewing.

    Age-appropriate educational programs can be very beneficial to children. Programs on The History Channel and The Discovery Channel can expose the children to other cultures and places around the world that they may never be able to experience otherwise. Older kids can keep up with current events by watching the news. Television can also expose children to the creative arts. Watching television may boost the children creativity. Space explorations and undersea worlds have been transmitted to television, in addition to made-up scenarios and creatures. After viewing such shows, children may express their creativity and create their own worlds, pretending they are on a mission to Mars, or that they are actors and actresses on their favorite show.

    So, beneficial programs like those I have mentioned above definitely can provide some information that can develop, educate and encourage children to learn and become a good and educate person one day.

  124. Many people believe that television programs are of no value for children. Do you agree? Why or why not? Provide reasons and examples to support your response.

    Children and television are commonly related that may have something may influence children.For example like violence on television programs. The amount of violence on TV is an important topic in today’s society. One of the reasons it should be so important to all of us is because almost everyone in world today has a television set, and because of it’s availability, children are viewing disturbing images everyday from the comfort of their own homes. Television is all about ratings. To keep the viewers from changing the channel, networks will try to do anything. Even the news is displaying bloody,rape,kill and others violence scene to see. They may get negative effects with the broadcast especially children.
    That is the main reason why kids can be exposed to view acts of violence even while watching a comedy. The networks do not think about the effect it may have on the children watching. The network broadcasters need to decrease the violence because it often confuses children, and as we all know children are visual learners. This may cause young kids sometimes blur things with the real world that they see on TV. It helps makes this happen by shaping an altered reality. Children do not seem to have a full grasp of the real world and the situations it may involve.
    An example of one of the ways it can confuse children is through programs that including glamorize and violence. Three out of five programs portray violence on television. Even some of the shows that is watching as a child could also be considered violent. For example, let’s take GI JOE into consideration. Sure there were battle scenes when fighting, gunfire, and explosions were evident, but the show seemed to have a sense of violence. At the end of this,it is really give negative effects on children.
