How much TV should a 13 year old watch?

It depends on your outlook. Some people believe that children should watch a very scarce amount of television and others believe that television is good for children to watch a large amount daily.

What are some reasons TV is good for children?

It has been said that unrealistic TV (i.e. cartoons that show violence etc.) are bad for children's health but realistic programmes like documentaries can be good. Of course it is a case of checking the content- some documentaries aren't suitable for children so be causious with regards to what they watch. Also be careful with the timings they watch TV for- TV should be watched in moderation- (i.e. don't let them watch hours of TV a day). A maximum of 2 and a half hours of TV a day would be plenty.

How much is too much television?

Parenting and child guidance experts differ on the specific amount of television each child should have, so it's best to just use some plain common sense. Some parents don't let their children watch any TV, while others simply let the TV "babysit" their children to keep them out of their hair. There should be a balance in there somewhere. Television, like other forms of media, can be both an educational and good moral influence on your child, but should not be a substitute for your teaching and example. Children can benefit from some TV watching and it's up to you to decide how much is too much. (I personally only let my children watch a few hours a day). When they watch it all day everyday! You should probably only allow 2-3 hrs of virtiual things (TV, Video Games, etc.)
