Everyday, children spend too much time in front of T.V. Some of them like cartoons and serials, others prefer action films or sport programmes, but nearly every one of them dislikes news and documentaries. At school, teachers find a lot of difficulties with the pupils who don’t revise their lessons, don’t do their homework and often forget their books and exercise-books at home. The parents sometimes forget or ignore their responsibilities towards their children. They only feed them and offer them clothes, but forget their education.
