We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesnt really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping childrens minds.One traditional belief about television is t

39、hat it reduces a childs ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images (影像).

TV doesnt take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playin
