TV vs. Reality• Children form certain
over dramatized images and apply them to reality based on what they see on television.
• Stereo types, characterizations and glamour portrayed on television are more likely to convert into ways of thinking in real life scenarios.
Conclusion
• Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, ABC Family, and other networks are viewed by a young age group, typically in the Concrete and Formal Operational Stage.
• Celebrity Figures have changed the way we view them.• Technology has improved, making any gossip easily
accessible through social media. • Teenage drug use has increased over the last 20 years.• Experiments show that children have a hard time
differentiating exaggerations on television and real life scenarios.
