statistics suck

so i have to read and memorize all about the statistics of how many hours of television a child watches by a certain age. and how horrible the amount of television consumption is. and how awful mass communications is for our generation.

my question is this: how many words has a child read by that same point? i think it will be significantly different than it was twenty years ago. with this horrid and deplorable mass communications- literacy rates have increased and knowledge has spread. arent these good things?

i would like to know how many words an average teenager reads in a given year. i want to compare that to the hours of television he/she has watched.

or i want statistics to be abolished.
