The average American child will have watched over 100,000 acts of violence on television and in movies, by the time they are in 6th grade (Children). Increasingly we see children’s violent behavior in the headlines almost every week. As media violence grows, children are exposed to it more, causing violent behavior in school and at home. When young children see violent behavior in movies or on TV, they have trouble separating the real world from what is fake (Murray). Many accidental killings by young children are because they have seen the same thing on TV and do not understand the real harm that they might cause. They expect the recipient of their violence to just be okay. Children see violent behavior in the media and think it is acceptable behavior to carry out with their friends on the playground or at home(Vos Post). Kids also do not understand that the killing on television shows is fake.
