Middle School Kids and The TV
TV Hurts Kids' School Performance: Study
Study backs parents who say "No TV on a school-night"
Here's another study suggesting that the average middle school student watches 4 hours of TV a day, and that it adversely affects their performance in school as well as their health. And according to this study, middle school kids watching R-rated movies do even worse. If you know me, you know I'm not a knee-jerk don't-ever-watch-an-R-rated-moved kind of guy. But it seems to me two things are needed:
1. Less time watching TV
2. More time spent engaging what we do watch thoughtfully.
