Reality TV performance and platforms have created the difference narrative about the whole show. People perceive it differently living the society to have different perception. On your main mention of reality shows people think differently and not articulating with the real conception of reality shows or reality TV. Reality TVs are platforms that give people the privilege and platform to participate and most times, they are ordinary People, more of them are not actors, let me say about 90% of reality platforms or TVs are not for actors but for ordinary people. Each reality platform has a platform marker, the way it is done and the target of the reality platform, in some cases you can call it, a reality TV niche.
It is unfortunate that this reality TVs are living what their purpose are to extend to what people might not be able to decode and assimilate as normal. More of the dating reality TVs do dirty things that, you can't permit a child to watch those programs. Imagine turning on a reality TV program and the way they are going about the program is irritating to you as an Adult, then how about to children.
This can strongly cause mental health impact on the youth. Critics argue these shows create unrealistic benchmarks for beauty, success, and relationships. Young viewers, whose self-concept is still forming, may develop body image issues, materialism, anxiety, and skewed expectations for their own lives.
Meaning of this reality TV programs and platforms exhibit bullying, toxic relationship dynamic, gossip, hatred, and given the society and the audience a wrong impression and ideology about this platforms and things programs.
To exposing children to such programs, will not only cause harm, it will also change their common mind of thinking, to what they see as normal, meanwhile it is not.
If reality shows and TVs can maintain their niche and make it moderate in a way that it will display what the reality show is all about and not otherwise, then it is something we can encourage to keep on going but in a situation where it shows the negative part and influence this social space and the audience negatively, it is not accepted.
