media socialization

There are all kinds of media socialization newspapers, magazines, comic books, radio, television etc. And in these things there are all kinds of negative messages and situations that the media portrays to children. I don't think media can be a very good thing for children sometimes.

I like that parents can control the amount of time their children can watch TV.

I think children should be outside most of the time doing things and learning about nature and the outdoors. Or doing extra curricular activities like gymnastics, soccer, brownies etc.

The media is a little too much with how bieber got a DUI at 19 or when Britney had her melt down and shaved her head.  Or the Kardashians and the wars that the girls have between each other, you're too fat or I'm better than you and it teaches children these awful things.

I as a mother of 3 don't allow my children to watch certain television shows especially, can't be too careful!
