Can TV be related to drug abuse? This is a question that has many answers, People say the content of the Television our children are watching causes them to be violent and use drugs. But there is one journalist that says that it doesn't matter what you are watching it just matters that you are watching, the amount of TV. He means that if as a parent you allow your child to sit in front of the television for hours on end, they will develope a zombie like attitude, and it is relaxing and enjoyable, when the child grows up they might want more of that zombie like feeling, so they try drugs and it is a much more intense version of the zombie, they continue to do it and they get into deeper, more intense drugs. So can the TV, really be a door opener for drugs and your child? Most people would say that the child could be peer pressured when they get to be older and then they do it, that would be because of society, There is also the possibility of just personal reasons why they get into drugs. What I am trying to say is that when people start abusing drugs it can be from any cause.
