Films and computer games which contain violence are very popular. Some people believe they have a negative effect on society and so should be banned. Other people, however, say they are just harmless and help people to relax. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

In the contemporary epoch, there is a common phenomenon among children of playing and watching violent content. Whilst some individuals are of the belief that these kinds of video

games

and

movies

have a plethora of demerits on the community and should be prohibited by the government, others have a diverse view. I strongly agree that films and video computer

games

which contain violent scenes have detrimental consequences on the offspring. In the following lines, both merits and demerits,

along with

my perspective, will be

further

demonstrated. On one hand, aggressive video

games

and cinematic films have dire consequences on children’s behaviour

such

as suicide and killing people.

In other words

, the crime rates among youngsters have risen significantly in the meantime after playing brutal war

games

like PUBG.

For instance

,

according to

an article that has been published in the Ahram Weekly newspaper, the root cause of the investigations of youth crimes committed in Egypt in 2020 and 2021 was the negative influence of the

movies

and

games

which contain attacking and killing scenes.

Hence

, if the government and parents draw more attention to the behaviour of the youngsters,

this

will significantly alleviate the youth crimes in a proactive way before facing deleterious effects on the community.

Nevertheless

, despite the disadvantages mentioned above, viewing violent

movies

and

games

may have an un-harmful contribution to children’s attitudes based on several factors. To illustrate, the Interpersonal skills of the young generations have improved significantly after playing strategic war

games

like language and communication skills.

This

Therefore

, the government and fathers and mothers shall employ censorship to protect the offspring from violent content and sensitive virtual images.
