When i was a child (age 4 - 6) I watched television quite often

So really, The child should be going out side and playing.

I'd rather my child do that then watch something as mind-corruptingly despisable as Disney Channel.

When i grew up i didn't have tv. so meh

But as for Children it depends on the child and how old they are like is the anywhere between 12-36 months maybe about 30 to an hour a day/night 3-7 years of age 2-4 hours a day  7-11 maybe about 5 hours...

I used to watch the History and Discovery channel all the time with my dad when he was alive.

Luckily that was before it was replaced with shitty reality shows about people chopping logs and mining glory holes for oil.

[Peetah]

ONLY animal documentaries :3 It fuels there imagination.
Even the discovery channel isnt kid friendly.

Depends on the programs they're watching.

I see nothing wrong with TV, it's more the parents using the television as a supplement for a baby sitter, or actually interacting with them.
