TOTALLYTV

I have heard many experts say that people mimic what they see on the television. I have to say that they are right in some aspects. I see many teenagers who want to emulate their favorite television characters. However, real life is not as easy as television life. If you do something that you see on television like get pregnant then there are consequences. Many teens want to be like the characters on television but they do not understand that real life can be a shock. I mean teenagers especially want to wear the same clothes and do the same things that they see on television. This can put pressure on parents because they cannot always afford the designer clothes and items that teenagers want. Parents need to monitor what their children are watching and talk about any issues that you think need to be addressed. Television will continue to influence children, we as parents need to make sure that we balance the influence of television by being good influences.
