Oh come on, lets not get too out of hand here, your a matured person who has a sense over whats right and wrong. But do little kids know whats right and wrong? Yea, if they watched law and order, they would think the guy is soooo cool and they would want to become a lawyer or an investigator when they grow up. And if they watch queer eye for the strait guy... well you get the point. YES, MEDIA DOES EFFECT PEOPLE. Maybe not matured people, or people who know right from wrong, but the new generation. Remember Columbine...
I'm not really sure what standpoint you're trying to argue from anymore. First you say the media is to blame for practically anything you percive to have gone wrong, and now you're saying that it's the parents' responsibility to teach their children values, and that the media is not to blame. Which is it?

then you said...Lauralana said:Millions and millions of people watch TV everyday and play games every day and are influenced by it.
You see, that doesn't solve the problem. Media and their influence are everywhere. By turning your living room TV off won't chage that much on your kid's life if your kid gets outside your house and gets to meet those millions you are talking about.Lauralana said:Like i said b4, if you are someone who would blame the TV for something stupid your child may have done....turn off the damn TV.
Not all kids have trouble distinguishing between fantasy and reality. See, the reason the media has a bad influence on SOME people, is because they can't separate what they see in a movie or on a TV show from what goes on in reality.
THAT'S A LOW BLOW. IT SAYS CLEARLY IN HIS PROFILE THAT HE'S 14, SO HE'S NOT MORE THAN A FRESHMAN IN HIGH SCHOOL IF THAT. THE GAME IS OVER AND YOU KILLED IT!!!1
And why do you hate gays? I feel humans are free to live their lives the way they want. If that's what they choose, then so be it. To each his own, right?DemonX said:But I do remember the original point I was going to. It wasn't about homosexuality, it was just one big example, due to my hatred to homos.
When I was a child, I knew the difference between fantasy and reality. Some children just aren't as developed as others. I suppose it depends on their up-bringing.DemonX said:Skytraveler---Young children, (4-7 years old), probably cant see the difference in a fantasy and reality. I am not talking about grown up people, because if THEY cant tell the difference, they are probably mentally disabled.
That's right, humans have opinions, therefore, the human race will always be at odds, whether you like it or not.DemonX said:I have alredy lost myself in forums that have nothing to do with the subject, so i will not argue about this anymore. Others will just keep argueing, and I will keep argueing, and both sides will not accept the others.
Okay, so how do you know it ? Do you remember your very first years very clearly ? Obviously, you're talking out of sense.Neo Genesis said:When I was a child, I knew the difference between fantasy and reality. Some children just aren't as developed as others.
