Насилие на экране - насилие в жизни

What has our society come to these days? Everywhere we look, violence is present; in the streets, back alleys, school, and even at home. Even if one might be a pacifist, violence will seep its way into our homes through the television. Some children who see violence on television are pulled into its harmful deceptions of problem solving.

Scientists have tried to explain why children are so amused by a big glowing box and the action that takes place within it. Research shows that television is a major source of violence for children.

Perhaps the most important way to prevent children from watching television violence is to stop it where it starts. The parents should step in and turn the set off when a violent program comes on. The parents are the child’s role models from which he learns. If he can learn at an early age that violence on television is appalling, then he can turn the set off for himself when he is older. Education should start in the home.

In conclusion, violence on television proves to be a root of violence in Young America. There are many examples and proven research that shows how violence viewed on television uproots all over our country. There will never be a law passed, or a set end to this problem. Only when we decide to put and end to this problem as an individual will we begin to see a more peaceful America.
