**Too Much TV
A. Gautam
1. There are many reasons why TV is bad for children. Too much TV time
takes away parent-children time. In contrast, reading books to children
or playing with them creates more family time. Children do not talk to
parents while watching TV. That leads to less interaction or
communication.
2. However, parents and kids talk while playing or reading books together.
Kids often have questions about the book being read. Also, kids feel like
they are getting lots of attention while playing together. Kids of all ages
can enjoy books and games with their parents, just as kids of all ages
watch TV today. Make a lasting change, and replace TV with books and
games.
