I am sure that everyone who is reading this article has watched a bunch of television in their lifetime. I personally love watching television. I used to watch SpongeBob all the time when I was younger. Most recently, I just finished up the Breaking Bad series, which is a solid 10/10. Some positive effects of television on younger kids are that it enhances learning skills and recognizes emotions.  The negative effects of TV are that they may lead to violence, bad behavior, and could lead to emotional problems. I think all kids should watch at least one show that they are interested in. As long as kids aren’t on television all day long, I see no issues with it. I asked a fellow classmate about how much he watches his shows, and he said, “I watch about 5 hours of Netflix a week, which I consider to be a moderate amount.” I completely agree with what he said. Television is an amazing piece of technology that we have nowadays.
