Every day millions of adults, children, teens, and elderly fall into a near comatose state created by hours of watching television. Most people do not realise that all of this television watching is ruining our psychological health as well as our physical health. I am not going to preach on how television watching is a bad thing, just that there are good reasons to cut back. Listen to some statistics. 99% of the homes in Canada …showed first 75 words of 754 total…

…showed last 75 words of 754 total…televised public debates and speaker’s corner. It is terrible to think that something as commonplace as a television set can influence our lives in so many different ways. I really did not believe most of the statistics I uncovered. 8000 murders before 5 years of age? Thank you for listening to my speech, I hope the message of how although television can be entertaining and informative, there are a lot of detrimental side effects go through.
