I get frustrated when I see articles like this. I do tend to think that exposure to violence in any form desensitizes children, and adults, to it. Anything seen or done enough becomes familiar over time. I think, as with most things, the onus of deciding if something is appropriate for a kid falls to the parent. I completely agree parents should know what their kids are watching, reading and playing. For example I might not want my kid to watch Bambi or The Lion King because those have a violent death of a parent, but I would be ok with Finding Nemo or My Neighbor Totoro because everyone ends up ok.
Other parents might feel differently, and all of them are rated G. Thanks for reading this and commenting, Lori. Not really trying to point fingers, and as you mention, I think the onus is on parents hence why I included the White House comment and provided the tips for parents. Violent video games are just one course of violence children are exposed to. Part of the reason I included stats on acts of violence on TV and screen viewing in general.
In this review of 22 films spanning almost half a century, portrayals of violence increased such that rates of violence in were double those observed in This was due to an increase in severe rather than trivial violent imagery. The findings support our hypothesis that movies, in general, have become more violent. The NRA app just a current and hyperbolic example. But there is data to show that some NOT ALL game developers target younger audiences in their advertising than the age-group for which the game is rated.
I found some info. The report finds that while the entertainment industry has taken steps to identify content that may not be appropriate for children, the companies in those industries still routinely target children under 17 in their marketing of products their own ratings systems deem inappropriate or warrant parental caution due to violent content.
The FTC found evidence of marketing and media plans that expressly target children under 17, and promote and advertise products in media outlets most likely to reach children under The report also publishes an FTC survey that shows children under 17 are frequently able to buy tickets to R-rated movies without parental accompaniment and purchase music recordings and electronic games with parental advisory labels or are restricted to an older audience.
The military uses variants of these games to teach new recruits how to shoot, so yes, they probably do play a small role in all of these mass shootings the Norway killer trained on them.
The industry can do so much better than this. Vic Strasburger, M. An opinion from Dr. Wendy about toy guns would be useful unless she has already blogged about it. I used to have a no toy gun rule until my own son started making them out of everything from toast to sticks. I have since let up with the thinking that if I withhold them they will be that much more alluring and we do have conversations constantly about how the real thing is very very dangerous.
Much like a real car, unlike a toy car, is very dangerous as well if used incorrectly. A gun of course has the sole purpose of inflicting harm, which I do tell him as well And we role play what to do at playdates if a friend wants to play with a toy gun to make sure to check with an adult to make sure it is, in fact, a toy and if that friend want to show real guns to say no and tell an adult etc. Am I on the wrong track? Conversation and family time is one thing we stressed in our home.
