ABSTRACT
This study used a survey design to examine the television viewing habit among families in Osun State. The study was guided by five (5) research questions. The population included all the families in 7Ede North Local Government Area of Osun State; while the sample used for the study included 120 parents cutting across the six selected public secondary schools in the study area. An instrument called Television viewing habit (TVH) was developed by the researcher for this study. The data gathered and collated was analysed using frequency tables and percentages. The findings of the study indicated that television affects the viewing habit of families in Osun State. The findings also indicated that television viewing by children does not enhance their performance in school. And the extent to which television has impacted on the lives of families in Osun State is high. With respect to the findings of the study, the researcher recommended that parents should Check out ratings, and, when there are none, find out about content. For example, content in a 1992 R-rated movie is now acceptable for a PG-13. Streaming online videos aren't rated and can showcase very brutal stuff. More so, advertisers need to be censored and stopped from using immoral or indecent images or visuals in their effort to sell their goods or services, as this may have a negative influence on the viewers.
