Why you should limit cartoon watching for your child!

thank you so much for sharing this article. i also dont allow my children to watch too much of TV. but she loves Doremon and i hate him. that character is such a waste of time with no good values, dependent, crying all time bullied by friends and poor in academic and a big looser. but problem is she loves to watch and i cannot do anything. but still i make sure she watch only for limited time.

Some cartoons are of no use. Their language is pathetic. They should be banned

Hi Deepak, after reading the article, now I understand and totally agree with you. But if I restrict my child from watching cartoons partially or completely, other kids she plays around with might talk about the cartoons right. Could you please suggest how to handle that situation?

Hi priya ,a well asked question indeed. If you are teaching your kids alternative arts like origami , paper mache etc or even teaching games like chess or other board games or helping your kids learn instruments like piano or guitar in their spare time ,your child would surely have a better topic of discussion rather than someone who is just discussing what happened in their cartoon episode today or day before.

Thank you so much Dr. Deepak. That is really very very helpful.

archana J, I faced the same issue when my son was quite young, the best solution i came out with was explained him about the negatives of the character and then let his teacher tell everyone in class to say negative about these kings of cartoons and not to watch such cartoons. Kids are very obedient to what their teachers say and they take it very seriously. Since the time their teacher discussed about Doremon, Oggy and few other such cartoons I saw my son swapping the channel as soon as any such cartoon coming up on TV and telling Mam told them not to watch this :)

Thanks Deepak Sir for useful guidance . It was happened with my child that he used to watch cartoons for long time ,especially Doremon. we have freeze that channel now . only one cartoon channel is available now to be watch. now he watches that for some time only.

Thank you Deepak Sir. This is very useful information.

I have tackled this addictive issue with my elder kid who is also a special child with the help of the doctor, whom she obeyed immediately by stopping completely watching cartoons. Now I am again at the same point with my second child. I have to read out this article to her so that I think she will comprehend to the fact. And also make her teacher give an account in the class about the bad effects on kids. Thanks you for the article. :)

Dr Solanki, do you think that cartoons influence gender socialization positively or negatively? Thanks.

Hi ruchi ,good query on gender socialization part. It actually depends on the content of the cartoon maker. If one shows girls as soft ,vulnerable ,who can be taunted by boys as much as they want ,won't answer back and just cry , etc would surely send a very wrong message for the innocent minds who watch these cartoons .Rather if some cartoons show girls who can be brave like boys when the need arises ,caring for their parents and loved ones more than boys ,confident etc can exert a positive influence too. All in all its about the content being shown and the intensity of impact it has on a young mind .and believe me there are way better ways to inculcate good values and even gender sensitisation among kids than cartoons .

Dr my child is 3Yrs old. earlier he used to learn everything which I made him learn but day by day his interest is increasing in cartoons like oogy and doggy Don he cry a lot inoder to watch them and likes to watch Dora. super strikers and ninja hathodi too. but not interested to listen anything and don't even take his food timely gets completely engrosse into them. we keep on calling him but all in vein. We found ourselves in miserable conditions of disrespect too please help us and how much time we should alow him to watch TV.

This is very nice topic as myself too is going through this staze where my both babies love to watch cartoons like motu patlu ninja hatori n all n even they r attacted to d cheaper eatable products available in market. They always demand that some times i agree some time i used to convence them bt i think we all parents cant rid of this situation bt after reading this blog i definatly for sure take precautions from my side. thanks

Me apne bete ko chuchu tv rhymes lga kr deti hu instead of cartoon which help him to learn new words n rhymes as well... dis is very nice topic .. n I think today's time every parent is fed up from cartoons

Once they get addicted to cartoon it's very difficult to stop dem or divert there mind. Pls give some tips on it

Very true point, I try to follow dat

Watching cartoons happily for sometime is fine but kids must also learn to live in reality. There are so many beautiful experiences in real life. Hands on guidance can be very beneficial in the early years of a child.

Dr ur write up is definitely good but we all need guidance on how to stop dem watching cartoons as de are already addicted to it. If you can give some tips on that we will be thankful

I guess for children who understand take them to an eye specialist and tell the doctor from before hand to talk to the child according to his or her level and point out Wat damage the tv can do.. See an eye check up should always b done every year or six months so while check up if it comes from the doctor and briefly in a child friendly way if he can show the diagram of the eye and explain it like a story it works. iv done it just a suggestion. That does not mean one should curb it totally cos nowadays there's immense learning tools through visual media but definitely it has to b curtailed. I believe that once the child understands that damage will b done he or she won't venture much for it but if they r shouted at without explanation they will do that more

now that my daughter is already addicted to cartoons she become very violent when not allowed to watch cartoons. can anybody list out things that I can do to try change her psychology slowly step by step process..

So true....

Iam experiencing this daily with my kids. Don't know how to stop it...

Even my children's are addicted. Without that, they even not have food too.

I would u like to suggest one thing. humei thoda Apne Aap ko hi pakka karna hoga . Aap kuch din tv switch off kar Dijiye don't allow them let them cry , but after few days they Will start accepting things . they way u want . i m experiencing in my life.... my. son not use to watch cartoon . but on other things like mobile ,etc etc thing but we have to little bit strict and in this both partner need understanding. jise baby kahin pamper ho na paaye

in travelling vich food we have to give for 7 mnths baby

u can take cerelac and take flask to keep water hot and u can mix anywhere and anytime I thnk so

yes everything u said is true but along with advice also provide solution... it's hard to spend time doing indoor/outdoor activities with kid especially if both are working and if no domestic help available..

Yes it is very true. But no option we make him to watch to spend his time as he doesn't have a full time friend to play. But as he grows up he chooses few cartoon channel and is shifting to playing games in phone. I think according to age the child change we can only advise to see less cartoon and play games for a short while as both of us are working and we had a second baby.

lll0p

thanks for information

exactly evn my son is fond of watching cartoon, n it ws getting more n more day by day bt thn I restrctd hm dt he will watch it fr a while like fr an half n hr. I try to kp hm engaged in sm activities like paintng or craft, I pretend as if evn I enjoy doing dt wd him. I hve also put him fr music classes so dt hl stay away frm mobile n TV at lst fr 3-4 hrs, aftr dt we play together wch mkes hm vry tiring so ultimately he hve hs food erly n fall asleep by 9 pm.

exactly true. My son is 4 years old. I never insisted him to see any type of cartoon. Because I think cartoon is a barrier to grow one's personality.

I have been married with my wife for 6 years and recently she broke up with me and it hurt me deeply when she told me to leave her alone and that she does not love me anymore when i was always faithful and honest to her. I tried all the ways to get her back buying her what she wants like i always did and she still left me heart broken and she even has a new boyfriend which destroyed me even more until a friend of mine from high school directed me to Dr Emu. This man changed my life completely. I followed everything he told me to do and my wife came back. I was stunned everything happened exactly like he told me.
