The influence of television on people`s behavior is great. Most young children watch TV for many hours every week. They watch it long before they have any real understanding of what they are watching. They watch programmes that are meant for adults. They stay up late and what films containing violence. There is a lot of evidence to show that they are often harmed by seeing such things. There is now more crime and violence in our society than ever before. Everyone is afraid to go out at night. These are dangerous times we live in. This is also the time when more and more people are watching criminal films on television. For example, a child may see cruelty in film. The child learns from the film how to be cruel. Many young people become too exited by violent films and when the film is over they go out and commit violent acts.
