You might have heard the old adage "TV is bad for kids". Well, it is not very old and I don't know if that counts as an adage but I disagree with it. It is like saying 'food is bad for kids'. We can agree that good food is good for kids and junk food is bad for kids. Similarly, there is good TV and there is junk TV. Being a parent I can vouch that good TV for a limited time has done a lot of good to my child and some other children I know. The devil is in the details.
