Violence

Violence is another bad thing promoted in television by means of all sorts of films including cartoons. Children and young people watching violent movies, cartoons or other TV shows learn that they can use violence to ask for something and are sure to get

what they want whenever they want, which again, is obviously yet another lie. We can’t get all we want anytime we want; many times there are other elements involved that we need to take into account.

By following the advice and imitating the characters in the world of showbiz, young people end up making mistakes that bring destruction, such as taking up vices together with the desire of getting deeper into them and not giving them up, so that they would not appear as "weird" in the eyes of their judging friends.

Unfortunately, still going down that path, many young people commit abortions, killings or even suicide. Numerous young girls have troubles accepting their looks, their weight, still due to the influence of showbiz and mass-media. They have eating disorders, they get depressed.

When you come to think at the people in the countryside although they are usually considered redundant and old-fashioned, (definitely not cool), they do not have so many problems with depression, weight, and so on.

They are used to physical labor, which also keeps the mind healthy and strong, and the spirit high. So TV has one of the most disastrous effects on human mind. The radiations emitted by the TV produce a hypnotic effect on the viewers, irascibility and anxiety.

However, we cannot say that television does not promote good things also. For instance, certain TV programs broadcast documentaries and reportages about people and places, about animals, and of course, religious programs.

But unfortunately, most TV programs seem contaminated with a virus which has the power to reduce the viewer’s general culture, turning him/her into a sort of puppet that can be easily controlled, without any opposition from his/her part. And apart from cartoons (or at least some of them), we cannot even choose a harmless TV program for us and our children.
