Children and Television

As an American, we should pay more attention to the influence of TV on children. Today 's children are watching TV too much. As a result, we can prevent it easily because terrible things can happen just by our parents and carers taking off the lazy ass and turning off the tube. "A nationwide alliance for children and families" said, "When teens graduate from high school, they will spend 15,000 hours of television viewing and 12,200 hours of classes."

The U.S. government has studied the negative impact of television on children In 1990, Congress enacted the Children Television Act. The purpose of the Children's Television Act (CTA) is to create more educational and informational programs on television, which we believe is more beneficial for children. CTA mandates that all television stations in the United States provide children education and information programs. Since Congress passed the Children's Television Act, we saw more educational TV programs such as Sesame Street, Bani and friends, and explorer Dora.

Programs broadcasting children's programs on US terrestrial television are regulated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) under the popular Children's Television Act (CTA), E / I Rules, or Kid Vid Regulations . Since 1997, all full power and Class A low-power television stations play programs designed to meet education and information, more than 3 hours a week (or more if running a digital subchannel) (E / I) Children under the age of 16 Needs for children under the age of 12 Bans of cable and television programs for children under the age of 12 that prohibit the promotion of products related to programs currently on air including limitation of advertisement time There are regulations concerning advertisement.
