What Are The Disadvantages Of Watching Television?

If you spend too much time watching television instead of interacting with others you can loose the social skills needed to make that human connection. People can spend many hours of the day in their homes to the point they don't want to mix with others and can become institutionalized into the home. Too much of anything is bad for you both physically and mentally. Depression and obesity can be side effects of becoming a couch potato.  From an educational point of view, it has been proven that trying to absorb information from a television programme, is not as effective as reading a book.  So trying to use television in place of reading will put you at a disadvantage . :)

It causes an impact on school dudes as they get to watch nonsense movies and movies not meant for there age
