Is media such as music, movies, and video games causing children to be more violent? Explain your answer. Which type of media do you think has the most impact on children? Why? Provide evidence.

I wish i could support with more fact that media isnt damaging to children if they watch it, however more overwelming studies show that it can be. I think a large part of the issue is that parents dont educate their children on the media they are watching. I was educated and understood that these things where entertainment, and i knew that it would be bad to murder or do whatever the games and tv shows where talking about. I think that if you do this you can limmit the problems. We live in a social world and it is dangerous and beautiful at the same time, if we limmit our childrens exposure to much to these things i think that we limmit our childrens lives and make them recluses to the wide world and vulnerable to the real dangers.
