Show Kathy's Corner Television: The by Kathy Riggs USU Extension Home Economist Television has been called the chewing gum for the eyes and the plugin drug. The potential for abuse among children and adults alike the fact that it is so easy lies in to sit down and allow ourselves Kathy Riggs to be entertained. The solution probably is not to banish the TV set from the house. Adults and children alike need to learn to be responsible consumers of TV, and the best place to learn is at home. Dr. Thomas Lee, USU Extension specialistinhumanandfam-il- y development, says many stud-"- , ies have focused on how violence and aggressive behavior on TV influences childrens own violent or aggressive behavior.

Nobody likes their show interrupted, but make some comments, and then let it sink in for gression seen even in cartoons. TV commercials also are very effective in determining what brands children prefer. With the holidays approaching, many par- ents already may be frustrated that their children are wishing for what theyve seen advertised on TV. Although one ofthe most widely held beliefs is that TV interferes with school performance, a moderate amount of viewing seems to be positive depending on the type of prowhile heavier amounts gram are negative. Despite all the findings on the negative effects of TV, Dr. Lee reminds us that parents can influence their childrens reaction to TV especially in limiting the amount and type of television programming and challenging the messages TV is sending. Even watching a poor show can be a learning experience if you are involved with your child. There are five things you can teach your children about television that willhelp them be media literate.
