Hate for hostile movies!
Movie Industry November 26th, 2005You can call me one of those snubs but I do not support hostility and violence displayed on the TV. I hate a hostile movie being shown on TV when my children are still not in the bed…
I do think we’ve got enough of hostility and violence in real life. Don’t you agree? Why the heck do we need any extra portion of that stuff from our blue screens?
Ok, some claim it helps us pooh off our negative emotions so we stay calm, kind, nice and whatever with our family and friends. Right, we are adults and I won’t try to convince you in that hostile movies can influence our character. But we have children! People, they are YOUR children! Do you really want them to be bred up on these terrible hostile movies full of hate and violence?
I doubt it. Personally I think that those who defend hostility and violence on the television, have their personal interest in that hostility doesn’t go off our TV screens.
I hate hostile movies. Hope you do too.

This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard! Yes, she is correct in the unfortunate existence of violence in this world and if this woman was tied up and gagged, along with her prescious children, and made to watch violent television, I would understand her hatred. But we are constantly being bombarded by parents who put the blame on everyone but themselves for the psychological destruction of their children. Assuming she lives in America and has some choices, she should wake up and understand she has control over the television her children watch. It is up to her, not the networks or anyone else, to educate her offspring and teach them the values she holds dear. Example: If your child is stealing, you shouldn’t take him to church and say, “He has to learn morals from somewhere.” And so it is with television. The cable company gives a remote, albeit “magic wand”, with every purchase. One can not only change channels with graceful fluidity, but also BLOCK OUT channels that are unsuitable for children. And, if this isn’t enough, there is always the choice to turn it, the raving hellbox, off. And you don’t even have to leave your couch.

I agree with Victoria. It seems every day, especially where I live (the South), I hear about how evil and bad video games and violence on TV are destroying the minds of our children. I have a four year old. She doesn’t watch TV or play games. Sure, TV and video games destroy our children…but not because they are violent. Its because kids would rather veg out in front of a glowing screen than play outside, read, or use their imaginations. No wonder our children are overweight! And it seems to me none of them like reading. Why? Because they get hooked on the television when they are tiny and never open their mind to the possibilities of books. It is not society’s responsibility to raise our children. Its OUR responsibility. Thanks to the lack of television in my house, my four year old uses her imagination and plays pretend and wants me to read her stories. If you want your kids to shy away from the television, perhaps you should set a better example for them.

It is down only to parents to supervise their children. The people who put stuff on TV assume that people are good enough parents to supervise their kids instead of plonking them in front of a TV while they go to the pub.

People should supervise their kids instead of putting them in front of the TV while they go to the pub. Ain’t the TV people’s fault if people are bad parents.

How else are the children going to be jaded. i mean im not even 15 and ive seen most horror movies that i can find, including th originals….. sooo yeah. And guess what my parents are great people, they just know what my best intrest is. ask your kids would you like to watch a bloody, cutting up people, watching them get tortured movie or not. Then see what your kids say, if they are young enough they would get scared by just those words you said. But if their near my age let watch to their hearts content, thats what horror movies are for, to make you get that scared feeling and chill down your bones.
