Watching TV has a significant impact on children. In the USA, kids typically spend between three and four hours daily in front of the television. Some devote more time to TV than to their classroom studies. Although TV can offer entertainment and educational content, it can also have negative effects. Excessive TV watching can detract from important activities like reading, engaging in outdoor games, completing homework, participating in family time, and building social skills. Additionally, children may absorb incorrect or unsuitable information from TV. Prolonged TV watching can lead to poorer school performance, reduced reading habits, less physical activity, and potentially even obesity.
