Impact of TV and Computer games on Kids

What parents say about it?

Joseph, father of two boys of age 8 and 4 says,

Kids are hooked to TV and hence they lack physical activities, have less interaction with others and lack helping tendencies. Also they do not concentrate on their food. Continuous watching of TV and playing with computers affect their eye sight as well. Above all none of these are informative.


Shanthi, Sivaraman's Mom says,
The after school hours of the kids are almost occupied by either TV or computer games. My biggest concern is that this has impacted their reading habit and also these less informative companion of them influence their behaviour as well. Kids are addicted to these programs and games and react in a crazy manner when they are denied access or interrupted.

Padmavathi, mother of Naveen says,
Watching TV affects their studies and playing out. Kids do not show interest to know about day to day life. Playing in computer sitting closely to it affects the eye sight. The programs and games on wrestling make them to fight at home and with school and hence they find it difficult to maintain friendship.

Srimathi, Swami's mom says,
The kids getting back from school immediately start watching TV programs and they get involved with the characters they watch. There are so many informative stuffs to learn from computers but he kids use computers only to play games.
