  1. If children see violence happening then they think it is ok to do, they need to be taught that it is wrong. The hardest thing I ever had to teach my children after the biggest mistake I ever made. (my ex husband their dad was violent to me in front of them and they thought they could hit me too)

    My children know it is wrong and I have taught them to be nice and kind, it doesn;t need to have 2 parents to teach them right and wrong as the person above says


  2. Parenting plays a large role. If the parents are violent, the child may therefore be violent. (Note that I said may.) Parents also need to keep track of what their children are doing. People will whine about that being an invasion of privacy but an invasion of privacy can prevent a school shooting. Anyone that would oppose that angle must really get off on killing people.

    Our children, ages 11 and 14, watch action, sci-fi, and horror movies, they play survival horror video games, but not once do they attack other children or make threats against anyone.

    We have gone to great lengths to explain every con of the penal system. What happens to people in prison. It's not a fairy tale, it's a fact. If more parents did this and stopped worrying about how this type of conversation would traumatize their children, maybe these kids would not be attacking other kids or shooting people up.

    Our children are deathly terrified of breaking the law and I see nothing wrong with that.

    I know parents whose kids don't watch violent movies or play violent games at all yet their kids are violent. The parents aren't even violent. So where did these kids get the violent behavior?

    If the child is influenced by games, television, and movies, then that child is weak minded and incapable of thinking for themselves. They will always be a follower and must be led around by the hand throughout life.

  3. Children are influenced by the violence that they see on television and also the violence they see in their home and in their communities. The more violence they see the more they will become desentised to it and the more it becomes exceptable to them. Parents act as role models so if Dad is abusive than their is a strong chance this will rub off on children that watch it. Also our communties influence the violence because if their is high levels of violence in communities like Iran and such. life carries less value and so brutal crimes become more exceptable.

  4. Parents and teachers are the foremost influence on children.

    Parents are more than the teachers.

    If the parents fight and argue the children will be adversely effected. If the home is 2 parent, stable and has strong morals, odds are that the children will grow up with similar views.

  5. I think all children who witness violence can be influenced, and I think it leaves a child with a bad image of life.

    Children who see domestic violence are nearly always affected by this and it can influence them as they grow older - this can often result in bad influences.

  6. Answer:  By becoming immunised and or anaesthetised to violence and to death as a result of seemingly witnessing so many through the media.

    All the fodder for cannons ~ gunshots ~ arrows ~ knifings ~ and martial arts aggression ....where having been kicked and punched, the character rises from the floor and strikes out in retaliation ....seemingly impervious to the punishment already metered out ....look, not broken bones, loose teeth, no black eye.

    Look, it obviously doesn't really hurt, does it. I saw it on TV, and the guy wasn't hurt.

    That awful ''A Team'' from the 70's, thousand of rounds from automatic weapons and only 'the occasional' would (a mere scratch) be seen.  No 'spill ed intestines', no puncture wounds, no body scaring deformities; a face where a nose has been shot off is ''UGLY'', the loss of an ear or the part of a jaw where the bone and teeth are visible to the witness standing alongside........

    These are not pretty sights, and are sanitised out as results of such violence to be (generally) shown on TV.  Film can be 'different', less sanitised, but often more glamourised too .

    Sash.

  7. Sure?

    Why not?

    How much time does one spend in communicating with own children in a day?

    Did one neglect them without loving care?

    Loving care is not in giving all the latest toys in town.

    It's in communication with them.

    Look in the real world.

    Where does little horror chucky all came from?

    With time how the "Beauty and the beast" grew up to be the were-wolves.

    Who's the victims that get rip-off by the were-wolves in own home?

    Does one how  they were being neglected with emptiness in their lives?

    That they turn to learning and communicating with a desk-top and no longer communicating with the folks back home.

    With time will know who's the casualty after they being born and raised by the desk-top and not by their parents.

    Why do they spend so much time hiding in their rooms ?

    When no one even care about them.

    But busy with " Money, money, money"

    Just "All for the money"

    While little horror chucky were at loss for "Words - that don't come easy" passing by them.

  8. Childen model their behaviour on what they see and hear. If the adults around them, and the environment to which they're exposed, accepts and encourages violence, then they will do the same. It doesn't matter if it's physical or verbal violence - they will copy it.

    Violence makes children feel that the world is a dangerous and unloving place and that the only way to deal with it is to behave the same way. We're busy sowing the wind and we've already started to reap the whirlwind.

  9. When a child is born, they are just a blank slate, they have no memory, only motivation. they crave knowledge and have a will to learn much at once. having a child in an environment where it is learning violence will influence it later in life just because that is what it learned. The child will first learn fear, then it will get used to it. Can you imagine a young child who is used to a father trying to run her and her mother off the road. I saw a 4 year old girl say to me "its ok, its only my daddy" while i was afraid for my life. These children dont understand fear after a long period of time and learn abuse and hate. This is where we get criminals, pedofiles, mentally disturbed, and many more of our convicts. Any type of violence can influence a childs life, like yelling, hitting or just mental abuse. Some children get so used to it that they begin to crave negative attention.
