A common scene: A little kid, sitting in front of the tv and watches it like he/she is hypnotized. We all know that it harms children and experts keep telling it everyday. I read an article about this again and wanted to share.
It says that australian government has prepared a guide about the harmful effects of watching tv in ages less than 2. The guide tells that watching tv defects children's neurons and can cause kids to be asocial in the future. It also extends children's focusing time and can cause more harmful results. Instead of this, If we think about the programs having place on our tv's, let's keep kids far from it.
This is an interesting and relevant topic, Ezgi. Can you edit your post and add the name/author of the article and the URL where you found it? I would like to read it!

In some points I agree with you, however the important part is the age limit. Under 2 year old children may be effected. In addition we keep hearing lots of children behavior disorder including violence, however undeniable thing is that there is also TV programmes, which usually develop children's aspect to events.
