Is the television your children are watching making them stupider? #comeonnow #changethechannel

For my argument I am focusing on the negative effects of television on the young and the way it affects their learning abilities as they grow up. In many of the articles I have read, it was clear that the way our television is presented to us now a day is not beneficial to our brains. It is full of nonsense information that is not only slowing down our learning capabilities but actually making us less likely to learn. Shows like little Einstein, created to help children learn faster and get a head start in life, are actually hurting the children’s abilities to learn and are pushing them behind in classes. Though television has not always been negative influence to us, it seems that as time goes on, the shows dumb down and we are being hurt by the aftermath.
