Television - leading cause of violence?! - Page 5

Got to say one thing in fav of TV - it has millions of addicts who R too much of a couch potato to really enagage in any violent activity LOL

So if violent shows make people violent......do musical shows make people musical and reality shows make people real?

If that was the case, I'd have learned to sing, dance, model, fashion design, and gossip all from TV.

What exactly do you consider as good quality programmes?

(Just curious)

Oh ok, well I was talking keeping kid's shows in mind😆, over here in North America (and these were aired in India as well), in the 80's-90's time the cartoons were of such good quality that even adults could watch them and actually draw beneficial morals and conclusions through them, now these shows had a ton of violence in them ex. Batman the animated series (very informative show inspite of it being targetted towards kids, great dialogues and it treated kids like they had brains, not like some of today's cartoons that are purposefully dumbed down and censored, kids are not as innocent and dumb as some adults think they are😆) and there was another one called Heidi (it showed realitlies of life). The point I'm trying to make is that if there is violence in the real world, the TV is not a factor, it has more to do with the upbringing of the person/parents. And also, I don't beleive that kid's show should be sugar-coated with sweet stuff and no violence should be shown. Children are smarter than most adults assume.

I think we are destroying future generations of children. I miss the good old days of anvil dropping, bomb exploding, frying pan smashing, wabbit huntin and all that jazz.
