    "But the real solution to this problem lies basically with the parents." Do your jobs, parents, and quit complaining about things that are in your power to control.

    Other then the fact that Hollywood is destroying our children's morals, desensitizing them, turning them into perverted sexual deviants and the fact that Hollywood is liberally insane, well, I have nothing else good to say about Hollywood!

    I believe the media has an effect on a lot of those who view it. Life can mimic fantasy if we let it. Fashion trends are prime example.... kids like to dress and talk like the favorite rock star. This is not new, it has been this way for many years. The problem is now that violence is a predominate theme in movies as well as the music, we are pushing a bad image to emulate in a lot of cases. What percentage of kids fall prey to this I don't know.

      I raised my grandson, he had to do his homework and his job duties befor he could watch tv, his grades were good and he wasn't aloud to watch certain movies, after havin him from the age of 2 1/2 tell thirteen his dad wanted him back,now his grades are all failing and he gets to do what he wants. he just told me the other day he wants to come back home, I told him to think hard, because I dont want my heart broken again. but I had to let him go so he wouldnt end up hating me from keeping him from his dad. everyone said I was to strick on him,and he remembered the words that I told him, I only do this because I love you,if I didnt that would mean I didnt care. so he has not forgot.

      I have done something similar to tell my kids that I (actually I have "meetings" with them and we make the rules together) have a job as their mommy. When either child tells me that "they don't love me" or " I am mean" when I don't let them do something they want, or when I say no more screen time, I ask them, what is my job? And they both know the answers! To love them, teach them, keep them safe! Right from wrong....if you as a parent know it, then it becomes easy to teach your kids, just talk to them ! And keep them involved in the decisions and family rules or mission statements! Good luck parenting!

      We don't have TV. It's a waste of money, 800 channels, nothing good on. If you don't have TV, it's even better because then you can control more of what your kids see and DON'T see. I've noticed some people actually think TV is also 'reality', and they are soooooo wrong. People believe what they see, and that's not always a good thing to do. Especially with the garbage Hollywood craps out every day of the year.

        When i was a kid, we watched tv, westerns, shoot em ups, Popeye, etc.. There was voilence in those just the same as there is violence in today's television. The only difference i can see is that we UNDERSTOOD that it was acting, NOT REAL, cartoons, etc. Why do children have such a hard time telling the difference in fantasy and reality today?

        Movies and TV are like anything, there are pearls to be found as well as crap.

            The parents are responsible for the actions of the child until they turn 18. (That's our law in Canada.) It should not need to be a law and, in fact that is as far as it should go. The governments are taking way too many liberties by regulating and censoring everything. THIS IS THE PROBLEM.

            Regardless of any law, the parents are responsible for teaching their children and being involved with their lives, games etc. If the parent feels is is bad for the kid - the parent takes it away.

              The real solution to this problem lies in the upbringing of today's education is tv

                I find the assumption that watching TV and movies makes kids neglect their studies false. I, for one, have great grades, and I have a DVD collection containing more than 300 movies and over 10 seasons of TV shows.

                  Thanks for such a well-researched article. I can personally vouch for the desensitizing aspect. I once saw a man shot and killed in the car ahead of me and remember thinking it was just like a movie. Not that my heart didn't start pounding, but it never hit me the way I thought it would.
