Abstract

Children in India are busy watching cartoon series every evening after school. They spend at least two hours a day and more than two hours in the weekend. The television channels in India are telecasting cartoons that are not produced in India. The origin of the cartoons series are mostly from France, USA and Japan. Since the culture and lifestyle of these countries is different from India, we are naturally concerned with the content. Above all children are children whether its India or other country. Adult content is common and rampant in these foreign cartoons and it is a matter of worry and a serious issue to be considered when children are involved.
