I don't think I know everything. I'm very evidence-based. I look at research and if the shoe fits, sometimes I'm probably reasonably correct. In this case, I can find other objective individuals that would support my reasoning. TV's left on like I mentioned above is entirely unhealthy, or it's an indication of an individual that is unhealthy, or partakes in an activity that has a negative effect.
Have you not read about noise exposure and stress? There's a reason we have noise regulations, for example.
Here's a teeny tiny article for your own self-education:
How Background TV Undermines Well-Being
https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/minding-the-body/201305/how-background-tv-undermines-well-being
A lot of people watch tv or leave it on, but research is ample to show that this is just not good for your health. Physiologically, it's disruptive to healthy sleep patterns, and it's not all that beneficial to your brain health.
Find me some kind of credible evidence that says differently, please?
I can laugh at this though. Yeah, I'm making a mountain out of a molehill. This doesn't matter in the great grand scheme of life. True, let people do as they please, especially if what they do is their own business. Yes, I agree with you there.
I'll just visit less a wee bit less often. I can joke too. I'm not always so serious. But, I do hate tv!!!!! So much so, I want to remotely disable them from afar!
Fair enough. Maybe instead of visiting less often get some noise reducing headphones.
I'm not implying t.v is good for you, like I said I dont even own one. I just think that for every choice we make there beneficial and negative consequences. I don't think in terms of black and white or ultimate truths sorry.
You seem to and thats fine but it comes across as condescending and arrogant.
Earplugs and soundproofing, yeah!
I just tolerate their tv habits when I'm there. Actually, I say nothing to them. My option is to persuade them to watch a movie or something other than their crazy preference for obnoxious violence-infested news channels.
I came across as arrogant? Yeah, I can see that. It's a bit lecture-y, I suppose. My apology. I did a bunch of public health research at school, okay.
Just to post it.

Stress and Noise Pollution
Environmental Noise May Be More Stressful Than You Realize
https://www.verywell.com/stress-and-noise-pollution-how-you-may-be-at-risk-3145041
Home Sound--Many people don’t think of their homes as ‘noisy’, but if there’s a lot of activity in the home, including a constantly running t.v., this overall noise level can actually be a threat to concentration and a cause of stress. In fact, children from more noisy homes do suffer ill effects from this type of sound pollution that include less cognitive growth, delayed language skills, increased anxiety, and impaired resilience, according to a Purdue University professor in a related press release.
There was a time when scienfic journals said the earth was flat and medical journals have said all kinds of nonsense over the years. Try not to place blind faith in all that crap because things change.
Unless you did the study or saw the actual evidence you're taking it on faith.
I've been called a lot worse than daft.
I take things as I see them and weight everything to draw my own conclusion. It gets me jammed up occasionally but thats how I live life. I tend not to place much weight on acedemics. They seem to change their minds most of the time.
Some academic research is bullshit, yeah. Tons of conflict of interest exists there. I kid not. But, anybody that can pick apart studies, can determine the legitimacy of what they're looking at. You look through citations and so on and so forth. Academics don't change their mind. You can't fake hard science. Subjective stuff? That can be weaseled. Don't make yourself look like an idiot. I don't think you're that dumb. Your responses are quite moderate and seemingly sensible.
I agree it is. I watch maybe 3 hours or so a month. It doesn't interest me any more. That includes movies.
The thing about the scientific process is its built to change when new evidence comes to light and there is always new evidence. This is why I often take it with a grain of salt.
IIN for people to keep tv's on ALL DAMN DAY (and night)? WTF?

Doesn't bother me, very few things do, just pointing out my opinion. Rude? Maybe. One flaw of mine is I tend to speak my mind.

Yeah, and it also depends on who funded a study. But seriously, if you ignore research, that's daft as all hell.
Blind faith? Huh? No, not religious. Evidence and outcomes only.

Hmmm, that's okay.
Life's a mystery.
