content of many TV programs is not educational. Nowadays, we can see movies,
series, and shows that present scenes of violence, sex, and drugs too.
This has established wrong concepts among the audience that influence them

up with the idea of a world where problems can only be solved with money and
violence, and where wars are inevitable. An other reason that people shouldn't
watch TV is, because it makes people waste time that could be used in more
beneficial activities.
For example: exercise, reading, activities that are good for a healthy lifestyle.
In fact watching TV for long periods of time has negative effect over the intelectual
development of children and leads to deterioration of the mental capacity in older
people by causing both attention and memory problems in the long term.

many programs are not educational, it makes people waste time that can be used in
more beneficial activities.

moderation TV is a resource that we can choose the right program for our own active
life and critical attitude towards it.
