What is a "mental health hazard"? A television is nothing more than a display with speakers. It can show anything from still pictures to drama to action to nature videos. Too much violent content is probably not a good thing, and spending too much time watching TV will take away from time that could have been better spent exercising, reading, working, or being with friends, but going so far as to call TV a "mental health hazard" is extreme. Clearly there are better things that could be done with one's time and the types of content one views might have negative effects- extremely violent or sexual content may have negative effects on young children- but TV itself is not a "hazard".

∙ 16y agoIt only becomes a mental health issue when an addiction is formed which disrupts your daily life and causes you to function less as a person. * If you watch television all day and all night without sleeping, this does you harm and can fall into the category of mental health.
* If you habitually watch the same program every night, and it does nothing to disrupt your functioning as a person, your family life, your work, then it is simply a habit and not a mental health issue.
