Do you think violent games and movies influence the youth?

Asked by jsammons (1143points) November 6th, 2009

Do you think that violent movies and games really have that much of an impact on children? I honestly think that it all depends on the maturity of the children and somewhat even the way the parent has raised the child. I’m sure that violence in media has SOME effect on kids but I don’t really think it can constitute a mass shooting or anything like that. In most cases that an event has happened that was the news said was linked to violence, it could be proven that those people has psychological problems already. What’s your take on the subject?
Also, how do you feel about your children seeing violent movies or even movies with sexual content?
