2007/8/2, Monday, Sunny day.
My family members spend most of their free times watching TV. Especially my wife, certainly, there are many worthwhile programs on television. On the other side, I am not worried my wife, but my son. Adult people can distinguish with some unhealthy programs like ads, movies, and so on. But they spend so many times on the TV that suggested my son to kill his free time by watch TV. They are lack of time to link up with each other, and they sometimes quarrel for the remote control.
My father turned the TV on while he is cooking, let his grandson to be quiet with no disturbing, the TV considered as an electronic baby-sitter.
By the dinner time, it always delays my son’s meal time. Families could have more active pastimes. Like take walk together after dinner, play games with the neighbor’s child, share his home work with parents, reading some children book together. The child is growing with play games, books, family members, not watching TV.
Also the CRT TV’s ultraviolet light could cause the eye ability down.
As my childhood there was no TV for entertainment in the poor village. It controlled most of the children’s pastime after appeared.
I going to buy a LCD TV to instead the high ultraviolet CRT TV, and let my family members use it wisely for their pastime and child education.
