Is Exposing our Kids to Violence going to make them do Violence too?

Exposing children to violent movies doesn't make them want to do violence because their conscience tells them what is right from wrong. Your parents or guardians can mentor you about the consequences seriously when you use violence in real life, and and let you still watch some movies with a little bit of violence because you know the right from wrong. You alter the positive. The people you hang around can lead you to some bad decisions, like teaching you lying is okay; when watching violent movies it can blur out reality and fantasy and cause violence, anger, and aggression.

However, some may say that kids are being exposed to high levels of violence through movies, Television, and books. The author states, “‘The typical American child will view more 200,000 acts of violence, including more 16,000 murders, before age 18.’”(29, paragraph 4).

The homicide rate declined 48% from 1993 to 2011.”(Page 32, paragraph 18). This proves that we as humans have improved and violence encounter has improved and we therefore are less violent than people
