Television

TV has a bad reputation. Parents are always telling you to watch less of it, and you hear from others how degrading it is. But it really isn't that bad, no worse than eating playing outside for a studying break. Only when people loose sight of the purpose of their watching of TV does it turn into a problem. If someone begins to only play outside, and ceases to study, that is when the problem occurs. Television is alright in moderation, and within limits. I have heard that some of my classmates watch five to six hours a day, and this amount is ridiculous. When a person's life is consumed, it becomes a problem. I do not watch TV often, going weeks without seeing even one show, but I can understand how it is fun, and entertaining as a way to sit back and laugh at your favorite shows. Television is not a problem, and it should not be villianized, so long as people do not overindulge and forget about the rest of their life.
