A lot of people believe that the amount of violence shown on TV and in the cinema affects the actions of our young people and therefore increases the amount of violence in our society today. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? What can be done to reduce violence in our society today?
Violence on television and in computer games had been a matter of different opinions, some people think that it influences on people behavior with a damaging effect on the society. Others disagree with such statement, they believe that these factors have not a significant influence on society. In my opinion everything shown on television and in computer games have any some level of influence in some individuals, but not in society, the people´s behavior does not depend on what that those influences could bring to a person, instead it depends on all the things that surround people’s education, such as family, schools, friends, and so on.

Lately, the argument around whether a student should take a spare year between highschool and university has been ignited by a lot of individuals.
