Could you be raising a criminal? What NOT to let your kids do...



If you’d like to reduce the odds of your child having a police record someday – turn off the TV...

Researchers in New Zealand say they have found a direct correlation between too much TV in childhood and criminal conviction in adults. They followed a group of 1,000 children born in 1972 and 1973 and tracked their TV habits. The more TV they watched between the ages of five and 15, the more likely they were to develop anti-social behavior and wind up with a criminal record. Those odds increased by 30% with every additional hour of TV watched per weeknight.
