Does Teacher Assistant look bad to Colleges?

My teacher said that a TA class tells colleges that instead of taking a useful course, the student decided to slack off and choose an easy class. But my parents told me that it can be good experience?

I was thinking between TA or study hall, or even an unscheduled? What should I pick?
