Television Concerns

Most everyone today has at least one television. Some us have a lot more than one. In my house we have five televisons. When I was a young chap, my parents wouldn't let me or my brother watch certain tv programs. Some of the programs she wanted us to avoid were The Simpsons, WWE, and Jerry Springer. My parents felt that those programs sent us the wrong message, mainly because even though they appeared to be real; they weren't.

I am concerned with the way television today is heading. They are letting more and more grotesque things on the air, where anyone can see them, especially, a young child. In the future, I think parents will have to filter out a lot of shows that their kids shouldn't see. Some programs can be a bad influence, possibly teaching the child bad lessons. We must monitor the television programs, because who knows what they might allow on tv in the future.
