We live in a society where the majority of us has completely surrendered to the power and influence of television. We have reached the point to think that our desires and dreams can be discovered only through television.

Television has the ability to persuade and decide for us. It has the power to transmit a message any way it chooses!
Did you know the average child would get to view at least 500.000 commercials by the time he or she will finish High school?
Are you aware of the fact advertisers spend billions of dollars every year to guarantee these commercials will persuade or should i say, hypnotize our children to go out and spend all the money their parents gave them on useless games, junk food or brand items?
That's mainly the reason why six out of ten children find themselves to be overweight. Television, bad eating habits and less exercise are the main reasons.
Did you also know the average family has their television turned on for almost eight hours a day! Eight hours! Do you know what this means?
If you take into account that we work eight hours, sleep for another six, perhaps seven hours and watch television for another eight hours, what does it leave us with? Nothing! We have no time to do anything else.
That's why most people turn around and say, 'I can't make it on Tuesday, i'm unable to attend on Thursday, Friday is out of the question!'
Of course they can't! They prefer to stay in and glue themselves to the television, while they wait to see which untalented contestant will be voted winner of the talent show, the fabricated economic crisis and conflicts, or who will be next in line to fall in love or be killed in those ever so boring reality shows.
How could society not be violent the moment they feed us with fear, insecurity, and violence? Did you know the average teenager by the age of sixteen would have witnessed at least 20.000 violent
and sexual scenes on television?
Take a look at the level of aggressiveness in some schools. They have been transformed into Roman-type arenas where certain student's, if you can call them this, participate in acts of violence beyond one's wildest and scariest imagination. Remember last years incident (They tried to hide it) when a fifteen-year-old male student pulled out a gun and shot his teacher during history class because he was asked to turn of his cell phone? Remember the other incident in Detroit a couple of years ago when a seventeen year old girl got all out of control and threw chairs at her teacher for failing her in the test?
What can i say i say about the terrible incident in Greece when three years ago four fifteen-year-old students murdered a classmate and buried him in the park?
All this violence is a result of the negative impact television plays.
Allow me to remind you that it wasn't long ago when the National Institute of Mental Wellbeing presented a twenty-five page report to congress stating that television was 99.9% responsible for children's violent behavior.
The report also stated after conducting experiments on 2.000 children between the ages of seven and fifteen - 99.99% of those kids expressed stress symptoms similar to those of drug addicts every time they were deprived of television.
Is that what you want happening to your child, your brother, your sister, your friend?
Do you want your loved ones to turn into yet another non-thinking civilian who doesn't participate in life? Do you want the people you care so much about to be transformed into empty buckets?
