The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP, 美国儿科学会) says that older kids shouldn’t watch more than 1—2 hours of television every day, and that kids under the age of two should not watch any television.

【推荐1】Have you ever shown your photos or letters on your favorite social media like WeChat or QQ? Have you talked about your angry feelings on your online page? If yes, do you know those can bring you great trouble?
Cathy, a school girl of your age in Junior 3, posted online an invitation to her birthday party with her address in it. Over 500 people came to the party! Some even broke the windows. Rubbish was here and there in the house. Cathy almost cried.
But many of your classmates think they know everything about social media, so such a thing could never happen to them. Guess how many teenagers in the world get into trouble because of their online activities? More than three million!
So do remember the following things if you really want to post something online.
Think before you post anything. You never know who sees your texts, pictures or videos. Before clicking “post”, you should ask yourself, “How will I feel if my family or teachers see this?” and “How might this post be bad for me in five or ten years from now?”
Be kind and always think about your readers’ feelings when you post something. Imagine someone is unfriendly in real life. The same is true online. No one likes it when you “shout” in your messages. If you feel angry or down while you’re writing a message, wait a bit. Read it again later before you send it.
Protect and respect. Never tell your passwords to anyone. It’s not wise to post your home or email address online. Don’t say bad things about people. If you get messages like that or see them online, talk to your parents or your teachers.
