Outdoors Or TV?

I think that if kids spent their time outside rather than watching TV there

would be less kids in gangs and less kids causing crimes. I’ve noticed lately

that alot of kids are in gangs and have been burglarizing houses and stores.

One reason why I think kids are becoming more violent and committing crimes is

because, they sit in front of the stupid TV all day long. They don’t spend

enough time outdoors, hunting, fishing, surfing, and doing all those fun

exciting things.

The outdoors offers so much to do and takes your mind off reality and

into the fun world. When you are outdoors you are free as a bird and there

aren’t too many rules. The one rule I go by is; ?have fun.? When you’re

outdoors you don’t have to think about being robbed or hurt by crazy people

because, they stay in the city.

If you are outdoors you can’t watch TV. That means that there would be

fewer kids wanting to join gangs and probably less violence. That would stop

allot of killing and stealing in this world if every body went outdoors instead

of watching TV.

Just think, what if kids spent their time outside rather than watching

TV and learning how to steal and kill. Maybe our world would become a safer

place. Instead of watching TV, I spend my time outside. It is allot more fun

then learning how to fight and kill each other.
