5.0 out of 5 stars
Moms and Dads, wake up to what your kids are watching!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Viewing Violence (Hardcover)
Very disturbing book about what's happening with TV, and the
effects of TV violence on our kids. Does a steady diet of
violence have negative effects on kids? You won't wonder
after reading this book. The author says -- and you won't doubt
her after reading this -- that there are hundreds of studies
already done that document the negative impact of TV violence
on our kids. Yet nobody talks about them. The TV industry
likes to claim credit for reducing drinking and driving through its
public service ads. Great. But they at the same time
REFUSE to take RESPONSIBILITY for also contributing to
violence in this country through shows that glorify the stuff.
The book is also fascinating for the author's description of
the different stages kids go through -- how kids who are 6 perceive the
same show differently than kids who are 10, and so on. The author's
a psychologist by trade. Fascinating book -- with critically important
findings for all of us.
