How TV Affects Your Child - 0 views

  • The average American child will witness 200,000 violent acts on television by age 18
  • While watching TV, kids are inactive and tend to snack.
  • Studies have shown that decreasing the amount of TV kids watched led to less weight gain and lower body mass index
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Limit the number of TV-watching hours: Stock the room in which you have your TV with plenty of other non-screen entertainment (books, kids' magazines, toys, puzzles, board games, etc.) to encourage kids to do something other than watch the tube. Keep TVs and internet connections out of bedrooms. Turn the TV off during meals. Don't allow kids to watch TV while doing homework. Treat TV as a privilege to be earned — not a right. Establish and enforce family TV viewing rules, such as TV is allowed only after chores and homework are completed.
  • TV and other electronic media can get in the way of exploring, playing, and interacting with parents and others, which encourages learning and healthy physical and social development.
  • Have your kids watch public television stations (some programs are sponsored — or "brought to you" — by various companies, although the products they sell are rarely shown). Record programs — without the commercials. Buy or rent children's videos or DVDs.
  • TV is full of programs and commercials that depict risky behaviors (such as drinking alcohol, doing drugs, smoking cigarettes, and having premarital sex) as cool, fun, and exciting. And often, there's no discussion about the consequences of those actions.
  • But despite its advantages, too much television can be detrimental: Children who consistently spend more than 4 hours per day watching TV are more likely to be overweight. Kids who view violent acts are more likely to show aggressive behavior but also fear that the world is scary and that something bad will happen to them. TV characters often depict risky behaviors, such as smoking and drinking, and also reinforce gender-role and racial stereotypes.
  • And although they've banned cigarette ads on television, kids and teens can still see plenty of people smoking on programs and movies airing on TV. This kind of "product placement" makes behaviors like smoking and drinking alcohol seem acceptable. In fact, kids who watch 5 or more hours of TV per day are far more likely to begin smoking cigarettes than those who watch less than the recommended 2 hours a day.
  • The first 2 years of life are considered a critical time for brain development

    Children that are exposed to television before the age of two, and more than two hours a week are more likely to see violence, risky behaviors, and are more likely to become obese. There is a rating system to help parents restrict their kids from watching specific programs. This article also teaches parents good habits to use while watching TV.

      media affects children at a young age already whether we know it or not
  • Mass media gives indicators to young people about what is considered “normal” and “not-normal,”
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      media gives the youth a distorted image of what they should look like which makes them want to be something that they are not
  • When [journalists] report what is normal, they also make an implicit statement about what is abnormal.
  • Low income families spend more money on television programming than on hobbies, and young people in these homes watch far more hours of television than those of higher income homes where more money is spent on hobbies.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      that's actually an interesting fact because i had no idea about this
  • The more exposure to unrealistic violence in media (e.g. games, television, movies), the higher the likelihood for aggression or violence in young people.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      more youth that sees violence tends to portray this violence in real life whether it be starting fights or getting involved in gangs
  • for every four violence acts on prime time television, 32 violent acts occur on children’s programs every hour."
  • As many aggressive teens are perhaps labeled as anti-social or defiant, these music/music video choices can help them identify with a social group.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      music gives youth something to start up a conversation and find friends since they have a common interest
  • intensive or excessive [media] viewing can affect a child’s brain and the development of creativity and intelligence by: a) reducing stimulation of parts of the brain that are critical for the development of language, reading and analytic thinking, b) diminishing mental ability and attention, and c) discouraging the development of executive systems needed for regulating attention organization and motivation.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      i think that kids who don't do anything besides watching tv or sitting inside have the childhood that once used to be when there was no tv. they lack social skills and fitness
  • All research has room for error, and should be read knowing that there are always exceptions.
  • Social media and online gaming groups do not necessarily produce a false sense of friendship.

      Accuracy - author cites her own sources in article
  • But to hazard a guess based on clear evidence that media representations influence teenage eating, smoking and drinking habits, adolescents are almost certainly affected — negatively — by sexual references and images from television, in movies and video games, in music, in magazines and on Web sites.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      Relevance - the information is related to my topic because it answers how media affects the youth which is negatively. parents are the intended audience for this article
  • There is growing concern that youth are accessing media in environments isolated from the supervision or guidance of parents or other adults,"
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      parents have no idea what their children are doing when they aren't around them
  • Despite the advent of V-chips, movie ratings and televised warnings of appropriateness for young people, American teenagers have no trouble getting access to graphic sexual presentations.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      kids can get access to things that parents might not want them seeing, whether it be asking an older sibling or asking a friend
  • "Approximately 47 percent of high school students have had sexual intercourse. Of these, 7.4 percent report having sex before the age of 13, and 14 percent have had four or more sexual partners."
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      having sex at a young age only seems to be more common now then it was before which is something that parents should be aware of
  • The effect of abstinence-only education pales by comparison with the many graphic messages that portray sexual activity — especially unprotected sex outside of marriage — to be a part of our culture as normal and acceptable as eating a Big Mac or drinking a Coke.
  • Each year, nearly 900,000 teenage girls in the United States become pregnant (340,000 are 17 or younger). The rates of sexually transmitted diseases are higher among teenagers than among adults, and 35 percent of girls have been pregnant at least once by age 20.
  • Data suggest that sexually active adolescents are at high risk for depression and suicide,"
  • "Early sexual experience among adolescents has also been associated with other potentially health-endangering behaviors, such as alcohol, marijuana, and other drug use."
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      doing one bad thing seems to lead to doing other bad things
  • The research indicated that adolescents who watched shows with sexual content tended to overestimate the frequency of certain sexual behaviors and to have more permissive attitudes toward premarital sex.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      sometimes what is portrayed on tv about sex and other topic is not as realistic as one may think
  • "On average," it continued, "each hour of programming popular with teens had 6.7 scenes that included sexual topics."
  • The sexual content of TV is pervasive and increasing.
  • As for the Internet, one national survey of 10- to-17-year-olds found that one in five had "inadvertently encountered explicit sexual content, and one in five had been exposed to an unwanted sexual solicitation while online."
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      the internet sometimes tends to leads the youth to websites that are not meant to be seen by them 
  • The report called for better studies to assess the effects of sexuality in the mass media on adolescent beliefs and behavior
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      research is constantly going on about these various topics that may help us better understand since it still isn't perfect
  • The New York Times Company
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      Accuracy - the article is published in a major newspaper, therefore the author herself sites the different information in her article to support her information
  •  
    This article summarizes how media negatively affects children. It specifically talked about how mass media influence sexual behavior among the youth. sexual behavior beginning at a young age has led youth to doing other bad things that go along with it whether it be smoking or drinking, etc.

  • Television viewing frequently limits children’s time for vital activities such as playing, reading, learning to talk, spending time with peers and family, storytelling, participating in regular exercise, and developing other necessary physical, mental and social skills
    • Kyle Palandech
       
      Accuracy because this is clearly a true statement. If children are wrapped up in media, they will not go out and explore. 
  • Television can be a powerful teacher
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      Can be both negative and positive
  • In some disadvantaged settings, healthy television habits may actually be a beneficial teaching tool (
  • The average child sees 12,000 violent acts on television annually, including many depictions of murder and rape.
  • Television viewing makes a substantial contribution to obesity because prime time commercials promote unhealthy dietary practices
  • Commercials for healthy food make up only 4% of the food advertisements shown during children’s viewing time
  • Television can also contribute to eating disorders in teenage girls, who may emulate the thin role models seen on television (8). Eating meals while watching television should be discouraged because it may lead to less meaningful communication and, arguably, poorer eating habits
    • Kyle Palandech
       
      Currency because this information is updated and new. This type of information will lately change in the future in some way, but this article has updated it recently.
  • Television exposes children to adult sexual behaviours in ways that portray these actions as normal and risk-free, sending the message that because these behaviours are frequent, ‘everybody does it’. Sex between unmarried partners is shown 24 times more often than sex between spouses (32–35), while sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancy are rarely mentioned.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      Many youths are not properly educated on what the outcomes are from committing unsafe sex
  • On an annual basis, teenagers see between 1000 and 2000 beer commercials carrying the message that ‘real’ men drink beer.
  • One-half of the G-rated animated feature films available on videocassette, as well as many music videos, show alcohol and tobacco use as normative behaviour without conveying the long term consequences of this use
  • tend to believe what they are told and may even assume that they are deprived if they do not have advertised products.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      This causes parents to spend more money on what children want because they believe that if their friends have it, they have to get it as well.
  • A number of studies have documented that children under the age of eight years are developmentally unable to understand the difference between advertising and regular programming
  • The average child sees more than 20,000 commercials each year (12). More than 60% of commercials promote sugared cereals, candy, fatty foods and toys
    • Kyle Palandech
       
      Accuracy because the information is giving reasonable data that has been researched and studied upon. 
  • If children are allowed to be exposed to these media without adult supervision, they may have the same deleterious effects as television.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      parents must realize that they do play a huge role in what their child watches!
  • Studies show that parents play an important role in their children’s social learning (44), but if a parent’s views are not discussed explicitly with children, the medium may teach and influence by default.
    • Kyle Palandech
       
      authority because this explains where the author has done the research and received this data. 
  • Music videos may reinforce false stereotypes.
  • Parents may feel outsmarted or overwhelmed by their children’s computer and Internet abilities, or they may not appreciate that the ‘new medium’ is an essential component of the new literacy, something in which their children need to be fluent.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      technology is constantly improving and parents should want to learn how to use the new technology so that they can keep up with their children and know what their children are doing
  • Music lyrics have become increasingly explicit, particularly with references to sex, drugs and violence.
  • Some video games may help the development of fine motor skills and coordination, but many of the concerns about the negative effects of television (eg, inactivity, asocial behaviour and violence) also apply to excessive exposure to video games.
  • The effect of violent video games on children has been a public health concern for many years.
  • Up to 75% of videos contain sexually explicit material (45), and more than half contain violence that is often committed against women. Women are portrayed frequently in a condescending manner that affects children’s attitudes about sex roles.
  • The Internet has a significant potential for providing children and youth with access to educational information, and can be compared with a huge home library. However, the lack of editorial standards limits the Internet’s credibility as a source of information.
  • The amount of time spent watching television and sitting in front of computers can affect a child’s postural development
  • Parents can use technology that blocks access to pornography and sex talk on the Internet, but must be aware that this technology does not replace their supervision or guidance.
