Are Violent Video Games The Cause Of Violence? LaTerria Whitfield
A teacher believes that the violence in video games & movies is the cause of the violence in the world today. Do you agree?
I mean, I think video games and movies definitely contribute to violence but I think whether these things had strong violence in them or not, violence in the world today would still exist.
I believe it is truly the parents jobs of teaching their children manners and etiquette. Violence has always been an issue, but their are more ways to keep record of these attacks than their used to be; as well as many more ways to spread the news faster and easier. Video games and movies may influince the idea of violence, but it is not the cause of the tragedies that occur.
