90 million children are watching Mr.Been TV Show approximately.Their regular routine life is really affected ,I think, In my house , my daughter (12) forget things, funny in her routine work, totally, seems to be psychologically affected. Her smartness had gone. Now without watching like that thing, she is somewhat better. What do you think about this?

Well at the start of that show there is a warning that people should take care of their children. And parents should keep a watch on what their child does. What they watch on tv etc. I have not heard of any child suffering from any such thing !

For goodness sakes..NO!
Parents need to parent and stop looking for excuses for their kids' bad behaviour.
We ahd a rule in our house when the kids were growing. You can watch anything you want..but if ou act bad, it will be taken away! The wanted the freedom form censorship..so they behaved! they watched South Park and a ton of other "bad" shows..but today tyey are groown, NO scrapes wiht the law and all in college or have families and act beautifully.
No show makes a kid act bad. Ineffective oarents that do not set boundries for behaviour DO!
Let the kids watch what they want, as long as they agree to behave. No problems!

Children at this tender age tend to be influenced a lot by the media. If you stop her from watching Mr. Bean, she'll pick up on some other TV series and be influenced by that. And mind you, they can have more harmful influences on her than Mr. Bean. Take Fear Factor, for example. Now that's a show which I despise at all costs. There are other shows also which show a lot of violence from which your child may pick up cues. You cannot lock up your child in a closet, trying to preserve her good nature. The best thing which you can do is to advise her in worldly matters in kind terms, make her see that whatever is aired on TV is not to be emulated as they are just plain and simple acting, the persons aren't like that in their real lives. You may show her an interview of Rowan Atkinson to show her how different he is in real life. You cannot insulate your daughter from the world. Rather, you should instruct her as to how to face it.
