TV Shows for children and hypnotic effects (Parents Please Read)

This is probably going to be the most eye opening blog post I have ever made. I realized the other day that I, too, have been programmed by things that I watched on television a long time ago. I am a child of the television age. This, as a hypnotist, made a VERY large light bulb go off in my head.

 

Many television advertisers spend large amounts of money to test the effectiveness of their adverts. Included in this testing is, as you guessed it, hypnosis and post hypnotic effects (#brainwashing). The level of this effectiveness is actually quite low and can really only influence you on how you FEEL when you look at one product or another. They are mostly content with the results.

 

I have come to realize, though that there has also been some triggering involved in other TV media. Yes, adult shows have it with little effect once again, but here is the one that concerns me; #Childrensshows. I have repeatedly watched TV shows for children and animated features, as well. I have always, as an adult, thought to myself, “That was funny, but a child would not get that humor (also read, reference)!” Now let’s take a step away from that situation. I have all of my experiences and I am who I am, right? Right. How about a child? A #child is naturally #hypnotic. If you tell a child when they skin their knee, “Mommy will kiss it and it will feel like it is all better.”, then the child somehow feels better. Instant hypnotic suggestion and effect. Now if a child bonds to a certain TV show or cartoon character, then ANYTHING that is said in the show or by the character becomes part of the child’s #programming WHETHER IT IS UNDERSTOOD OR NOT. Once the child grows and can then interpret the information, it just becomes a part of who they are. Mass #control and programming. I can personally remember many #political references, product references and opinions from these shows of my childhood now that I think back upon them.

 

How can this be averted? WATCH TV WITH YOUR CHILD! Discuss things as the show is happening because what the parent says will INSTANTLY override what has been seen on the television. Our children can only learn from us if we are there to learn from. Putting the child in front of the TV babysitter is what every television and #advertising executive counts on. Long term advertising and returns. Try it. Think back to what you saw as a child and remember how you perceived it then and compare it to today and how you understand it now.
