Children love watching cartoons. for them it us their source of entertainment. Keeping this in mind many cartoon channels have also come up and they all are doing good business. But is it possible that unknowingly they are showing some violent content in their cartoons that may affect the tender of children?

Several cartoons are not appropriate for the audiences they target. But that doesn't mean there aren't cartoons that are not good. You just have to pick and choose. Too much screen time is not good no matter what the content.

I think the cartoons these days definitely have a negative impact on our children. There is no way that I would let my child watch any of them on television anymore. The content is not very good and there are alot of sexually explicit material on them and alot of vulgar language. I do not call that a cartoon myself. It is sickening that even call them that. they are not a bit funny either.
