It is often
said that watching violent scenes on television increases the amount of violence in
society, especially among teenagers, something with which I strongly agree.
To start
with, it is clear to me that if teenagers, who are still building their personalities,
watch programs where violence is shown, this will become a part of it. For
instance, there are many families whose children’s behavior started to worsen
when they were allowed to start watching programs including explicit violence.
Moreover,
the more you watch something the more used to it you get, which is one of the
reasons why teenagers become more aggressive when watching programs where
violence is shown. Children may normalize this kind of attitudes and
incorporate them into their usual behavior.
To sum up,
I am of the opinion that if programs which include violence had age
restrictions or parental control, aggressive attitudes among teenagers would decrease.
