Summary Why did people get worried about "square eyes"? Is children's television just a cheap babysitter? Or do we really expect it to be educational as well? The Way We Were: Kids' TV looks at children's television and how it has changed over the generations. Australian kids today watch on average 30 hours of TV per week, and over the years mass media has changed the experience of childhood. However, increasingly, computer technologies are absorbing children's time through interactive programs, and since the birth of Harry Potter, a resurgence of reading.
