Watching TV is harmful to children. You should pay attention to it after watching it.

Many parents do not pay much attention to their children's TV watching behavior, so they often allow their children to watch cartoons for a long time. In fact, this practice is very dangerous, because children watching TV for a long time will have many harms, in addition to damage to eyesight, there are many more than people can imagine.

If babies are addicted to television, computers, and mobile phones, it will damage their future development and bring long-term physical harm. Infants and young children under 3 years old are in an important period of brain and vision development. Watching TV will not only affect brain power and vision, but also reduce body coordination and sensitivity due to reduced activity. Some children like to eat snacks while watching TV, which can easily lead to obesity symptoms over time.

Watching TV for a long time will make children only interested in TV programs and not have much interest in other things. Gradually, they will be unwilling to go out and make friends, become withdrawn, or even autistic. Over time. The lack of interaction experience between people will hinder children's social skills.

While watching TV, children also reduce the time they spend looking at pictures, picture books, reading books, and playing games.

Children need some quiet time each day to process what happened during the day. Children who watch TV for a long time not only do not have the opportunity to digest life experience, but because TV presents information in a clearer, more intuitive, vivid and figurative way with sound and images, they lose their curiosity and desire to explore the world around them and give up thinking and delving into the nature of things. When they do things, they often lack concentration, do not like to think, and do not pursue quality, which seriously affects the development of their cognitive ability, thinking ability, and creative ability.

What seems to be a win-win situation actually greatly affects the parent-child relationship. A strange phenomenon has occurred in many families: parents and children each hold a different TV and watch their favorite programs without any communication. This practice, apart from indulging children in watching TV, will only create a rift in the parent-child relationship.
