These days, we are seeing an increasing amount of violence on television, and this is having a negative impact on children's behaviour. Do you agree or disagree?
In recent times, there is an increase in the number of violent scenes in digital media especially on television.
This
could have a detrimental effect on the children
who are watching it. I strongly agree with this
claim and this
essay will examine the reasons with empirical evidence.
To begin
with, watching violent movies could have a psychological effect on children
. Gory scenes filled with blood and weapon may sometimes frighten them, which could disrupt their ability to think creating dreadful nightmares. These might occupy their thoughts making them think about it often and to some, extent children
might even get influenced by them. For example
, most serial killers have a violent past, that is
either they are exposed to violence or a victim of violence. This
not only has a detrimental effect on children
but also
on society.
Furthermore
, there are quite a lot of programs broadcasted on television, of which animated superhero series is
one of the favourite shows watched by many Correct subject-verb agreement
are
children
. These children
tend to blindly follow their favourite superheroes like Batman and Superman and hurt themselves badly by performing stunts. For instance
, there are many cases in India, where young children
have jumped from high-rise buildings pretending to fly like superheroes or thinking one of them might rescue them. Thus
having a bad influence on young viewers as they don't have the ability to judge.
To summarize, violence in media has grown sharply and its influence on young kids could be seen around the world. It affects them both physically and mentally. Therefore
, parents should be more cautious when allowing their kids to watch a program. Government should reassess the censorship of these programs.Submitted by chitraindica18 on
