There are many kinds of addictions, like drug, alcohol and smoking. But TV addiction is something that should be discussed on another level. TV has only been in our lives for half a century yet us still managed to get addicted to it. TV addiction kills social and family life. We make are schedules depending on TV programs. For example even if we are going to meet are girlfriend the football match on TV sometimes seems better. TV also ended family conversations and rituals. Before TV families spent their time together talking, disgussing, playing games etc. But now we don’t even watch TV together. Everybody has its own favourite program so TV time becomes solo time at the same time. TV addiction is one of the worst addictions eventough it is not that unhealthy as the others. I believe that this could be solved by creating “TV addicts support groups” like the ones about drugs and alcohol. That way we may be able to get over this modern world disease.
