Avoid T.v.during Meals For A Better Tomorrow

Television has become an hindrance and we are loosing out on relations with our near and dear ones, all the time people are watching soaps with sobbing stories, which in itself a very sad affair, and none are getting much entertainment through these, in fact more negative aspects are the out come of watching all these.
Especially while eating we tend to consume more fried stuff like the chips and popcorn and potato wedges and pizzas which add to the junk food along with cola and aerated drinks, which is so filled with carbon dioxide, that one develops a lot of stomach ailments and a lot more obese in the long run…
It has been found that these children if they watch tv while having their lunch of dinner tend to avoid vegetables but enjoy more junks, and loss of normal sleep, poor academic performances, and symptoms of deficit hyperactivity disorder.
In those days we had mothers feeding a baby while showing the moon and crow and dogs so many other green stuff and nature, now the child is fed with have your dinner fast otherwise we wont be able to see our favourite serial and so on..
I know it is a fixture in our modern life but it is better to switch it off at least while having our dinner and lunch, and concentrate on family union and care and updating our relationship, in those days parents used to forego looking at their favourite programme so their children could get good marks, but now the children have no supervision of working parents and they live life according to their whims and fancies…sunkan

dear lata,
i dont know your child's age other wise i could had told what i used to do, i always used to tell priya, that if she does not concentrate on what she eats, she will loose her stomach responding, like when she is hungry the stomach slowly opens its mouth to allow food to go in, and if it is not timely like watching tv or playing and all, later the stomach will refuse to open its mouth, so the first thing first ,attend to the stomach who will not open later but tv is always there, or eat before your favorite pro gramme start that way u will help your stomach as well as enjoy your food...sunakn
