The Not So Fun Side of Games, Movies, and Cartoons: A Personal Narrative

Can violence in movies and video games really cause violent behavior in children and teenagers? Well if it did there would

be a lot more crime and murders going on in the world. Besides what's more likely to cause someone to perform a drive

by, is it because they saw it happen in a movie, heard about it in a song, did it in a video game, or is it because their

parents weren't there to look after them and monitor what they're doing and making sure they're not influenced by the

wrong things. I've been playing games since I was three, watching R-rated film for as long as I can remember, and

listening to all types of music from Rap and Hip Hop to Death Metal. In the sixteen years of gaming I've done not once

have I had the urge to go out and rob and or kill someone just because I saw it in a game or a movie or because the

music I listen to told me to do it. "Parents have been socialized to think that cartoon violence is harmless, but it's not."-

Dr. Dimitri Christakis(Cartoons Cause Violence) When I read this I couldn't help but wonder if this ever watched a cartoon

in his life. If your letting your kids be influenced by cartoons and they're acting out as a result, then it's the parents fault

for not teaching their kids the difference from fantasy and reality.

Writing a research paper about violence in Video Games

yeah ive been writing a research paper about "Can Violence in video Games cause Kids to become violent?"
it hasnt been coming together well though since my teacher hardly gave us instruction on how it should be written i tried emailing her but she never responded so im going to try and call here tomorrow

ive found some great material to work with to help prove my point

lately ive been wondering if i should change my XboxLive Tag from MetalSnake51 to Conker51 or Conker0051

also i got two new games Final Fantasy 7, Metal Gear Solid, and .deTuned(although its kinda a weird) from the PSNStore actually me and a friend traded

and i got Cloverfied on bluray for 14bucks although the title is very misleading since i didnt once see a field of clovers

also need to get some new posters for my room the walls are completly naked and its kinda dull just looking at a white wall

the only things i have up is a
Bruce Lee wallscroll
Ren & Stimpy poster
a picture called "The Voyage of Life: Old Age"
and a plaque that has a prayer my rosary and a prayer card that i cant seem to force myself to takedown
despite the fact that im not religious (been on the fence ofAthiest and Agnostic) i just cant bring myself to take it down
oh yeah and i need to hang up my fight club poster

and finally im still waiting for a call back from blockbuster to see if i got the job
