Do you have any idea how much children and teenagers learn from television? Actual good and important things, that they can use later in life? How children actually learn to understand things through television?

Or if that isn't enough: the fact that reading fiction has nothing to do with concentration or intelligence?

Reading anything will improve your concentration by default, because you have to actually engage your brain at the time that you're reading. (Whether you're puzzling out a research methodology, or imagining Middle Earth.) Reading good fiction will also, by default, improve your intelligence, because it will expand your vocabulary.

Unless you're trolling, in which case, you sucked me in, 1/10.

Oh look, a TV stan. I'm not even getting into it... But if you don't think that watching tv instead of reading books kills reading comprehension I don't know what to say

Dude, I watched countless hours of television as a kid (still do) and would absolutely hail it as important to my development as a person, and yet that didn't stop me from reading books once I could. TV doesn't give you everything.

I love TV and have learned a lot from it, but come on. Reading certainly does have something to do with concentration and intelligence, they're not wholly unrelated issues.

AYRT I loved telly as a kid, but it didn't give me the same things as reading gave me. They're not equivalent.

And I have a child, thanks, and they get some telly, and then they don't so they can read and do other stuff. Guess what they'd rather be doing? Guess what I have to say No to sometimes? Bad me!
