TV is the major distraction in the life of a student today. These days students find an easy way to spend time by watching TV and are less interested in reading. In fact, reading is becoming a thing of the past. It also causes harm to the eyes and ears. Concentration power of a child decreases by watching TV. Watching TV involves only eyes and ears. The students are not taking part in outdoor activities because of TV. Watching TV also makes them couch potatoes.
Confined to the ac rooms watching TV is making their health and mind suffer. They are getting deprived of fresh air and atmosphere. They are also getting devoid of healthy outdoor life. Watching TV hours should be restricted to educational programmes like discovery and national geographic. One or two entertaining programmes in a week is sufficient for a child.
So let all of us make an effort to restrict TV watching.

You are so correct.True TV is a distraction.
JUDAH FERNANDEZ
You only spoke against it and about its harmful effects on kids but it is also a source of recreation for the adults which makes a difference in their lives.
VASUNDHARA GAEKWAD
It's true, TV is taking the place of books. My TV has got spoilt for 1 whole year. First I used to complain so much that the TV should be there but now I think it was a good thing. I could concentrate more on my studies and as there was no TV I used to play outside everyday. This article is really good Nayanika. Please keep on writing such articles. They will really be good. Keep it up!
AAYUSHI
Nayanika your article should be read by all the students. Please keep writing like this. Best of luck!!!

Your article is well written but T.V can also be informative or a learning experience

SHREEMANT SAHU
See nayanika, I appreciate what you said and how you expressed your idea on Television. But you did not organize it properly. You only mentioned the Bane part of the Television. In the formal way of writing, you should mention both the boon and the bane of television. It helps the students but in other way distracts the mind of the students. You could have written about the dilemma it has caused in the present day life of people. However the way you wrote about the bane of television should be appreciated and you should receive a big round of applause. If you would have mentioned about boon part of television then you would have deserved to be editor of any famous newspaper.
