The
Television Project is an educational organization. We help parents
understand how television affects their families and community, and propose
alternatives that foster positive emotional, cognitive, and spiritual
development within families and communities.
Consider the following
information:
98%
of American households have at least one TV set.
On average, children
aged 2-5 watch 14 hours of network television, per week.
Television viewing
increases aggressive behavior.
Children imitate
what they see.
Children under
the age of 5 cannot separate fact from fantasy.
66% of Americans
eat dinner while watching television.
When shopping
with a parent, on average, children request a brand-named item 13-18 times.
