Advice to help turn the television from
being a destructive force to being
something beneficial to children
1. If the child is less than two years old, then he should not watch
television at all.
2. Avoid using the television as a babysitter;
rather parents have
to watch programs with the children and discuss them with them
so as to instil the beneficial aspects of the programs and help
avert their harmful impact from the child, because he is not able
to differentiate between what is real
and what is imaginary in
those programs.
3. Set a limit on the number of hours that the child is allowed to
watch television. This should be no more than one or two hours
per day. The limit can be set on the basis of the time of the shows
that the parents agree on.
4. Set the example for your child of not
watching a great deal of
television.
5. Offer alternatives to TV, such as playing some sports or doing
some hobbies or engaging in some physical activities and other
constructive activities that will benefit your child.
6. Avoid eating meals whilst watching television.
7. Find out about the content of
the program before allowing
your child to watch it.
8. Avoid watching cartoons that contain violent scenes and bad
treatment between the characters, such as Tom and Jerry, which
is usually based on an attitude of
stubbornness and violence
between the characters. This show has unfortunately become
very famous.
