In the modern digital era, many get the experience of violent

entertainment

in form of movies and games. While some believe that

this

experience is harmless and should be allowed to feel without any restrictions, my belief is that it should be censored to some extent to avoid harm to society. On the one hand, many argue that there is insufficient data to link violent

entertainment

to actual crimes. Most of the viewers or subscribers just require the temporary thrill and excitement which does not extend beyond that limit.

Moreover

, the young generation will be aware of the consequences of crimes through

this

mode of

entertainment

and highly likely to obey rules and behave as a good citizen.

In addition

, some may control their anger or stress by playing a shooting game rather than doing actual harm to anybody.

Furthermore

, researches indicate that violence received by these modes of

entertainment

help to balance hormone levels inside the human body as well.

On the other hand

, viewing

such

violent content without discretion can cause several harms to society as well.

Firstly

, children are likely to be impacted by

this

violent

entertainment

and can try to imitate what is being done in a movie or a game.

This

can lead to an increase in future crimes.

Secondly

, people with risky health conditions

such

as heart diseases could have issues if harmful content is not censored from movies or games.

Hence

, it is required to govern and regulate violent modes of

entertainment

. In conclusion, though there are positive outcomes of not censoring violent content of

entertainment

, the damage it does to society is unacceptable. In my view, governing bodies should involve and frequently monitor these

entertainment

modes, especially in developing countries like Sri Lanka.

Offspring are the backbone of every country. So, there are communities who tend to believe that youngsters should be encouraged to initiate social work as it will result in flourished society and individualistic growth of youngsters themselves. I, too believe that this motivation has more benefits than its drawbacks.

The use of social media such as Facebook or Twitter is replacing face-to-face contact this century. Do you think the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?
The use of social media is shifting direct interaction these years. The benefits are it makes communication easier and also open networking is much simpler. However, it replaces direct interaction for some occasions that need to be elaborate. Due to these facts, I wholeheartedly agree that the drawbacks outweigh the benefits.

Are classes, such as painting and drawing, are as important to a child's development as other subjects, so it should be compulsory in high schools. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is an indisputable fact that science and technology have permeated almost every aspect of human life and the demand for workers in these two sectors is undoubtedly increasing. High schools, one of whose primary roles is to provide a sufficient supply of manpower for industries, either are pressured into or deliberately focusing on science subjects to cater for such an increase. However, I believe that students need to dabble in the arts because it not only benefits them socially and emotionally, but also helps them think creatively and become more patient.
