TV reaction

Violence has always been a way of entertainment. First Ancient Egyptians were playing the murder of their God Osiris, and then the Roman Empire with their gladiators was providing entertainment to 87,000 people in the Colosseum amphitheatre. Today, the violence provided by the media is extremely dangerous and especially through the television medium.
According to the Laval University professors Guy Paquette and Jacques de Guise who were having a research on six Canadian networks for seven years, analyzing films, comedies, series and children’s programs, the incidents of physical violence increased by 378 per cent. Other researchers Such as Andrea Martinez at the University of Ottawa and L. Rowell Huesmann at the University of Michigan argue that it is the physiological effects of media violence that cause aggressive behavior. Exposure to violent representation is linked to increased heart rate, faster respiration and higher blood pressure.
Psychological or physical, the issue is massive and it gets worst day by day, program by program, series by series, and film by film. According to the new scientist research in the Cyber college service, by the time the average U.S. child starts elementary school he or she will have seen 8,000 murders and 100,00 acts of violence on TV.
Most of the children are watching television after their first year of life. The 2 first years of a child are considered the most critical time for the brain development. Television and other electronic mediums can be reducing the exploration of the child. The healthy way of a child to be normal is by playing and interacting with his or her parents and brothers or sisters, a social development.
