From my experience, TV also seems to be decreasing the IQs of adults as well.

Television viewing is also now linked with stunting brain development in the child's frontal lobes leading to reduced impulse control and increased antisocial behaviour.

My favorite stunts are great balls of fire explosions, car crashes featuring ramps, and Bruce Lee as Kato.

I the ninties I did research on Television and Childhood intellegence. There was only one study that compared two towns, one with TV and one without. It was a year long study ...they were towns in a mounainous region waiting for cable.

The children's grades has an immediate and significant drop after cable was available.
