by watching Television you are being plugged into the world of entertainment. Being the lazy Americans that we are find it hard NOT to watch the next episode of jersey shore or what not. Television distracts children and teens from their social life as well as family. Don't forget it also keeps these future generations to be distracted and careless from their homework. Kids don't want to do homework they WANT TO WATCH TV. some kids may be lucky to pass test last minute and slide by but those who can't are stuck with no or late assignments which conclude that they are going to receive a bad grade. Then they are going to think twice about watching tv but even then they wouldn't be able to last.

How does television viewing affect behavior?

There are two major dangers to watching excessive TV. The first is that people who are sitting in front of a TV are not exercising, and lack of exercise and its complications are the leading health problem in the US. This is a behavioral issue, not a biological one. The second is that people who are watching TV are having information and entertainment streamed into their heads without having to do any original or critical thinking on their own. This results in millions of people who simply accept what they hear without either considering the source or discussing it with anyone -- except to agree with what they just heard. This creates major problems as well. While psychological, it affects behavior such as relationships with other people, other nations, voting, ability to make decisions in ones best interest, and so forth.

If you are a teen how can you overcome school anxiety?

That would depend on the cause of the anxiety. If it is anxiety about school and grades (fear of failure), then just apply yourself, and do the best you can. And while everyone prefers to make top grades, not everyone does. But not being in the top 10 or 20 per cent of your class is ok. But if you feel your best isn't good enough to get you the grades you want, then you should consider getting a tutor. If the anxiety is due to peer pressure, or the fear of not "fitting in", then you are not alone in that. Most teens have anxiety about not feeling accepted or being liked by their classmates, but most would never admit it to anyone. Just remember the other teens at school are probably just as anxious as you are, and some even more so; they are just really good at hiding it. But you have to realize you are just as good, just as important and just as special as everyone else in the whole school is. And lastly, there are always going to be those that are bullies, and prey on those they feel are 'beneath' them. Don't let anyone make you feel less of a person or less important. People who do act that way are often the ones that are the most insecure, and that is their way of trying to hide it.
