/^t/Let us dwell for a moment on this problem. Giving up upbringing to television is extremely dangerous for the whole society. The fact that children don't know how to communicate, how to share and express their emotions in acceptable way. But they have definitely learnt from silly, violence packed cartoons that crashing using a gun, a laser weapon or even the superpower enables the immediate termination of an opponent. Cinderella is certainly out of date. The present female hero for little kids is a sexy superwoman with fully exposed tits or to cut the long story shorts, she is a mirror reflection of a "call girl." There is no longer clear distinction between good or bad. All characters are equally vicious. Such a dire situation has already brought up the insensitive, callous generation. The term fabulation used by post-modern fiction has found it's equivalent in real life which is so called murder fabulation. The border line between reality and fiction has become very thin. What's even worse the symptoms of reverse syndrome have become very frequent. But the new breed of television is not capable of understanding that we can't reverse the lost life or the harm done. Unless we do something about it our children will become telly addicts and puppets in hands of virtual reality.
