Children Should Be Protected from The Media Influence

The document discusses whether children should be protected from media influence, specifically television. It argues that television has a strong influence on children due to its ubiquity in households, moving images and sounds, and the amount of time children spend watching it. While TV can educate children, it can also negatively influence them. Studies show viewing violence on TV is linked to increased aggressive behavior in children in both the short and long-term. Therefore, the document concludes it is important to protect children from the influence of television.
