Ly-dashia Thoughts I Ly-Dashia agree that television has a bad influence on children because of the different things shown on the show. For example you have shows that has says “for viewers 14 and older,” but yet parents allow little children watch the show. With that being said kids are picking up the different things said or done on the show and imitating it so that is why television is an bad influence on kids.

Ashley's Thoughts I Ashley disagree that television is a bad influence on kids. I think that television Helps children in different ways. For an example I think dora helps kids with their ABC'S and their number. Their other television that help kids with their healthy. Nickelodeon Helps kids with their health.It help kids know which foods is good to eat and which food are not good. Television also have fun activities for kids to do. Therefore I think television is a good influence on Kids.
