Children and TV. Дети и телевизор.

Television appears to be shortening the attention span of the young as well as eroding, to a considerable extent, their linguistic powers and their ability to handle mathematical symbolism. Even more serious, in my view, is that television is opening up all of societys secrets and taboos, thus erasing the dividing line between childhood and adulthood.
