Yeah, my blog is pretty straight-forward. "Does the Media affect America's Youth?" is the question. The answer- you decide.! (But don't decide until I finish my project)

The youth is within TV's powerful grasp (Finding Paragraph # 1)

Many people believe that TV is a negative influence on children. Some believe that statement and some do not. However, proper research has to be done to get an actual answer. My research says that certain types of TV can actually be helpful. For example, shows like Sesame Street and things of that nature, teach kids the basic skills they need to be successful in life (Educational TV Has Positive Effects on Toddlers and Preschoolers). Many people may agree with this statement or disagree. While educational TV shows are helpful, too much of it cannot be good. Too much TV can cause obesity and a decline in grades.(Media, Grades and Personal Contentment).

  1. Tv can be helpful but it can also become addictive they say they young children should wathc 2hrs a day. The average child watchs at least 7 to 12hrs a day. Even in preschool and day cares children are still watching incredible to much television and has become a serious problem.
