Although the series’success might have a good side,many teachers and parents are worried,however.They say that some of their students and children are becoming couch potatoes(终日泡在电视机前的人)and are using Away from it all as an excuse for not completing homework.Some children have even refused to learn for exams because they say that they can only achieve personal happiness by avoiding(避免)stressful situations completely.
And what do the experts(专家)say? Paula Ray,a doctor of education,says that TV can influence children’s lifestyles.But she says that if a child reacts strongly,it’s likely that there are other reasons for his change in behaviour.She says that there is nothing wrong with watching Away from it all but suggests that parents should make sure their children know TV is not the same as real life,
