Fighting for television rights

I'm not talking about the war on our borders or the one against terrorism.

This fight is the one we have with our elders and parents about our right "to view the TV channel we enjoy most, cartoon network".

After spending over six hours in school, we need a break. Watching cartoons amuses us and gives us a thrill. We don't understand why our parents should object.

If they think we are wasting our time and neglecting our studies, they are mistaken.

We are in the primary classes and it is no good trying to pack too much into our small heads.

When we grow up and go to higher classes, we will definitely cut down our habit of sitting in front of the television and concentrate on our studies as the occasion demands.
