It is responsibility of parents, as well as teachers, to guide children to watch healthy cartoons for a limited time.
ISLAMABAD: With advancements in technology, human beings have turned images into moving objects, making an imaginary world of fantasy in the minds of children. Watching cartoons like “Johnny Bravo”, “Ed, Edd and Eddy” and “Tom and Jerry” have made our children addicted to animate objects, which is affecting them both physically and psychologically. These leave a bad impact on children’s minds, urging them to mimic such characters in their everyday life, fostering bad habits in them.
Parents are responsible for such a psyche of children. Often, as both the mother and father are working, they are unable to pay attention to their children. It is the responsibility of parents, as well as teachers, to guide children to watch healthy cartoons for a limited time, which will provide them with useful knowledge and strengthen their personality.
