 Geleneksel televizyon yayıncılığı bağlamında incelendiğinde, Türkiyede en çok izlenilen program türleri arasında televizyon dizilerinin olduğu görülmektedir. Medya-çocuk ilişkisi çerçevesinde değerlendirildiğinde ise televizyon dizilerinin problemli varlığı dikkat çekmektedir. Özellikle dram türü dizilerde sürekli belirli niteliklerle izleyici karşısına çıkarılan çocuk karakterler birer ajitasyon kaynağı olarak kullanılmaya devam etmekte, ana ve yan karakter rolündeki çocuk özne, zorlu ve meşakkatli hayat hikayeleri içinde konumlandırılmaktadır. Aynı zamanda dram türü dizilerde yetişkin bir bireymiş gibi belli başlı özelliklerle sürekli aynı biçimde inşa edilen çocuk kimliği acının odağında kurgulanmaktadır. Kâr amaçlı politikalar ekseninde yayıncılık sürdüren özel televizyon kanallarında ise bu kurgunun varlığı dikkat çekici düzeydedir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, dram türü televizyon dizilerinde duygusal sömürü haline getirilen çocuk karakterlerin birey olarak yer alış biçiminin sorunlu doğasını ortaya koymaktır. Bu kapsamda çalışma, dram türü yerli dizilere odaklanmakta, en çok takip edilen televizyon kanalları özelinde çocuk karakterlerin yer alış biçimini sorgulamaktadır. Çalışmada 2019 yılında en çok izlenilen televizyon kanalları Atv, Fox Tv, Kanal D, Show Tv, Star Tv ve TRT 1de haftalık yayınlanan ve çocuk karakterlerin yer aldığı dram türü diziler örneklem olarak seçilmiştir. Bu kanallarda 1990 sonrası dönemde yayınlanan 156 dram türü dizinin ilk üç bölümü niteliksel içerik analizi yoluyla incelenmiş, ana ve yan karakterlerde rol alan 365 çocuk karakter tespit edilmiştir. İnceleme sonucu elde edilen verilerde dram türü dizilerde sorunlu bir çocuk birey algısının oluşturulduğu ve çocuk karakterlerin duygusal anlamda kullanılarak pazara sunulan bir nesne haline getirildiği bulgulanmıştır.
