To say something to dc about watching these programmes

[lavendersea]

Dc like watching Jeremy Kyle and on benefits and proud and other programmes.

To be fair they are always respectful and say how horrible it is that people are manipulated in the way they are but I don’t know if they should be watching as rhen they are part of the problem ... should I say something?

How old?

Young adults - late teens, early twenties.

In my uni days I used to sit around watching Jerry Springer. Don't think it's done me any harm.

It's an easy way for them to learn about the lives of others etc.

You can't really say anything if they're old enough to watch what they want.
As a young adult they must now govern their own world and navigate their own exposure and the opinions they form from them.

I watch those shows. It's just mindless TV that can be watched with a cup of Tea and my phone in my hand.

You want to tell an adult that you dont think they should watch a tv program they like? I dont think thats going to work
