Violent Kids? Violent Games? Or Both?!?!


All over the nation teachers are growing more worried about children who play computer/video games. During recces and free time instead of doing fun activities such as tag, football, and hide and go seek. Many students are running around reenacting scenes from violent video games. Some teachers report that kids may take this to seriously to the point were someone will get hurt, or to the point where they would be out of reality. Playing these games also effects the students performance inside the class room. Due to staying up latethe night before. Students show up to class drained physically, mentally, and socially. Other side affects that may come of this our obesity, poor social skills, and lack of physical fitness, when it all comes down to it though who is really to blame?? teachers mainly point the finger at parents saying they ignore the content and time of playing when it comes to their children, and video games.

Most video games, and media that kids watch are a little more unethecial and disturbing. suprisingly some parents don't do anything about it.  All over America there have been cases were youth have went to extreme and disturbing mesures and acted out  sences from their favorite video game. A great example of this was the columbine masacare were it was belived that the two people that killed everyone got their inspiration and ideas from Aldof Hitler, and violent video games. I think if parents actual sat down, and watched what there kids were playing then they would truly understand just how bad some of these games are for our youth.

  2. Yes, there are many concern about video or computer games affects kids. Many people think the game is noisome to kids. In Korea, the government made a law called "shut down." which is every online game companies have to shut down their sever to under 19 ages at mid night to 9 am. I am not sure the time is exact, but there is that kind of law exist right now. I think it is not appropriate law because they should have choice. They force to do not play.
