Comedians and language
Comedians and language
From Kompas
Television stations should carefully choose their programs for
around 7 p.m. because children watch TV at this time.
Inappropriate programs will adversely influence the development
-- particularly psychological -- of these children.
My observation shows that most TV stations screen programs
featuring comedians as well as child actors and actresses.
While it is true that children like comedians, it is a pity
that these comedians do not use edifying language. Their language
tends to be impolite and vulgar.
Choose programs that suit children's development. Produce TV
films for children and do not rely on cartoons alone. Cartoons
teach children how to kill others while TV films -- usually for
adult audiences -- tend to be both disgusting and vulgar.
All parties concerned should ensure that televisions networks
air programs suitable for children.
