Reality T.V. is Harmful

                I’m the kind of girl who always tries to find something to do that is useful to my life. Like for example I like to exercise a lot instead of watching T.V. because I know if I watch T.V. I will just be wasting my time doing nothing but sitting down. I don’t like watching T.V. because right now I think that the shows are ridiculous and it’s so fake. I try to stay away from it as much as possible especially because sometimes they show inappropriate things like people dancing nasty. I just don’t like to expose myself to those things. Those type of shows are harmful to little kids and to our society. I think the more people that see it, the more you will see people try to imitate those things that are horrible. Like for example the way young people act in the T.V. it’s the way other young people want to act like or live there life like and they even want to treat others the way certain actors treat other people. Also I try to avoid T.V. because even some commercials are like rated r. I just think T.V. right now is very over rated and since I try not to influence myself with those things I try to not watch it at all. Those shows just cause more problems than you already have and it influences in the way you live. Watching T.V. is like inviting those people you are watching to your house and living with them. That’s why, for example, if you watch like shows like the Ghost Hunters or other paranormal shows you start feeling scared when you are alone in your house or freaky things happen because you invited those bad things to your house and it’s like you invited them over to your house and the more you watch it the more it will be like you are living with them. Also, shows can make you make bad decisions in your life. For example say you like this actor, you like that actor so much you try to live like that actor and you begin by imitating him or her and you end up losing friends and you might even end up harming yourself because you want to be like that certain actor like if that person is skinny and you are not you might do whatever it takes to look like that actor the bad way because you are so influenced by that actor or you see it too much in the T.V. that you think that is how you should look in order to get accepted by a group of people. In the end, T.V. can influence you a lot in a bad way and that is why I try to avoid it by keeping myself busy on other things that are more important to myself and that are going to benefit me and others around me to make good decisions and to live a healthy life.
