Yes, for whom it is severe', but the Put problem in 21 century more aggravated … the child is fair … cannot yet is high-grade to realise world around, at once there is the slave _ so-called« entertaining technology »… I too addressed to this theme … (_' G ood-for-Nothing. 'A rhyme.' The Educational-Missionary Fund, '2003 )

Will interestingly and pleasantly familiarise from biographies and creative potential Roald Dahl...

The only boy in our class,
To be t.v less-
Was the biggest,
Rogue of all!
Now hes in Penton,
Trussed to chain and ball!
So think twice,
Is to unplug so wise?

I find T.V. boring. I only watch it when Steve Irwin is on Animal Planet. I loved this poem and it made be laugh like anything.

I like this poem but it left out the last 5 lines. here they are:

'P.S. Regarding Mike Teavee,
We very much regret that we
shall simply have to wait and see
if we can get him back his height.
But if we can't, it serves him right.'

television it soon becomes
so boring the children
try out what are portrayed
on screen for the real kicks
- soccer, beauty pageants,
and of course the unexpected,
rattling bullets all over the place
in banks, anywhere they could have some fun
