Opinion essay- Judith raja juanes

These days, violent acts on TV is on the rise and teenagers spend most of their day in front of a screen, so many people believe that violence, among them, has increased.

I disagree with the idea that anyone who watches violence acts on TV will increase their violence. In my opinion, I think that violence is shown in lives experiences, violent acts on TV aren’t the real problem.

If you have had violent experiences in your life, you will probably be more violent.

For instance, a teenager who has been beaten up by his parents, or who has seen violence in his home, he will normalize the violence and repeat it. Although this teenager hasn’t seen violent acts on TV.

On the other hand, a teenager who doesn’t have a problem with violence in the home, but who often sees violence on TV. He won´t be more violent. For instance, this boy who has no problem with violence at home, even if he sees violence on TV, he won't become more violent. This teenager knows this is wrong and if he does, he will be punished because he has had a good education.

Nowadays, social networks really do influence teenagers, but social networks don’t make people more aggressive or violent.

May be, social networks make them more violent because they want to feel superior and social networks helps them show it to the world, but the influence of family and friends is the most important thing. They have the role that we imitate.

To conclude I would like to say that I think that see violent acts on TV its wasn’t make teenagers more violent.

If Teenagers see violence in television will they become more violent?

Nowadays, Tv programs, witch are usually used to disconnect from the real world, are not as much popular as they where before. And action programs are one of the most popular Tv gender in the moment. But do they make us become more violent?

Donald Trump, who is politician, says that the biggest problem of America is that persons who are older than 14, watch violence on Tv and when they grow up they want to do what they have seen on television, and is for this that in USA has the biggest annual number of murders in the world.

In my opinion, I disagree with Donald Trump arguments (witch I think that doesn’t have any coherence) because I think that what he should do is illegalize the weapons, and not throwing the faults to the tv programs.

In conclusion I think that violence tv programs doesn’t turn people into more violence, because people who are older 14, are not as much influenced as to become more violent.

Opinion essay

Nowadays, the TV violence has increased throughout these years and It’s often said that TV increases violence but, is this real?

In my opinion, there is not a relation between the teen violence and the violence that is shown in the TV. It is clearer if we see this situation with another emotion.  If television showed sad programs, would we be sadder? If television showed pacific programs, would we be more pacific? The answer is no.

Moreover, everyone has watched violent scenes on television and generally, no one wants to kill people.

Nevertheless, many people consider that television or video games encourage violence, but this is caused because of the manipulated news. When someone does something violent, this news says that the problem was that the person was a fan of violent video games or movies.

In conclusion, I consider that violence in teenagers has not relation with the programs that are shown on television.

Opinion essay-Hosana giralt

Nowadays it’s usual to discuss if violence among teenagers it’s a consequence of what they see un TV programs, In my opinion I agree that teenagers are influenced by the violence they see in several programs or news.

• Firstly, the matin reason why I think that teenagers are influenced by TV programs is that I don’t only think that your parents teach you, but rather society also influence the way you are or the way you react to different situations. For example, videogames promote a lot of violence which have harsh consequences, psychologycally teenagers are the most influenced people, because of the pressure they deal with every day to try to be accepted in society and achieve the esteriotipes.

If teenagers let themselves influence by society or Tv programs or enven the news they will be also influenced the bad way, so they can try to act to resolve their personals problems, the Same way they see on tv and become violent or aggressive.

In conclusion if I had to summarize it I will say that teenagers are really easy to influence and can become more violent or agressive because of seeing or playing violent programs. 

Opinion essay- Carles

Lately, I have been reading on social media about the violence shown on tv or children cartoons, some people say that their kids are violent because they see it on tv or accuse the entertainment programs of causing tragedies on our modern society.

I think that if the kid or person watching these "violent" scenes is normal they won't follow the same steps and take it as pure entertainment, but if the person has some social problems I don´t know what could happen but I have searched a bit and it's scientifically tested that violent movies and violent games don't cause the feeling of violence on the person watchiong, just the opposite it makes them a bit more stable.

In conclusion, I think that one person does not become violent for the news.

Opinion essay - Edu Ferando

If Teenagers see violence in television will they become more violent?

Nowadays we see a lot of series every day, that’s a fact, but we must be careful with that. Seeing TV or series, which many people do, it’s a good distraction, but on TV, we can find a bunch of programmes with adult content. Violence is present in many programmes which young people see.

In my opinion I totally disagree about the beliefs that nowadays the violence is increasing when more aggressive acts are shown on television.  But there are some other people who claim the opposite.

First of all, teenagers are more interested in see other platforms instead of TV, for example a teen now prefers see Netflix series instead of seeing Tv series. Moreover, if Netflix or any other platform keeps uploading series with violence, the problem will just move to another place and not be solved. In addition, the series that are on air now treat genders very variated, not all the series contain violence. For example, if we search the most viewed series, we can see dramatic situations or romantic scenes, too.

In fact, the violence can be suppressed if the family takes cares of it. An example of that can be a child hitting a dog because it is recreating a scene he has seen previously on TV, there the family acts immediately and corrects the behaviour of the child, he wouldn’t do another time.

Last but not least, some people when are playing videogames or watching some series about fighting come to think that they are living in another world, and act like the characters they saw. However, if this brings a punishment, they will not do it.

To conclude, I believe that the violence doesn’t come only for the Tv, there are some other things like the family influence or the friends who play an important role. The attitude of a person not only comes from what he sees, if not from what the person lives and experiences.

Opinion essay by Adrià Roig Fitó

Opinion essay

In our times, most of teenagers like spending their free time watching or playing violence series or videogames. Most of these stuff, that can be extremely unsuitable, are recommended for eighteen-year person, however children don’t mind it. Thanks that, it can make the kids opt for adopt that kind of attitudes, but not always.

In my opinion violent videogames obviously can influence on this attitudes but one think that influence more is the education of the kid. Depending on his parents, they can educate the teenager in his infancy age (3-8 years) for that the child know what is wrong or right, also asking the child about what thinks about these issues.

In general many parents don’t agree with violence in videogames and TV, but unfortunately, they are who buy this type of stuff for their children. They really should think what they are doing because this hypocrisy makes a more violent society.

In conclusion I think that parents should care more about their children education more than they play or watch in TV.

Opinion essay-Kacper H

Nowadays almost every young person before eighteen years watch a lot of TV series and films where appears all kind of violence murders,discussions etc. However nobody talks about it ,but does that kind of films can affect your mentality and your behavior. I agree that in some cases it can affect you.

In these times, practically all kind of TV movies and programs which young people watch are drastic, that means that some of young users of TV who watch it can get affected by these films, but if they hadn’t watch that kind of programs,they wouldn’t get affected.Of course not all young people would get affected for example if i see someone killing someone in the TV, i wouldn’t kill someone in the real life, but if there were less violence in programs,there would be less violence in real life.

Furthermore i think that in these cases the education is very important both at home and in school because you spent a lot of your time in school and i home so the bases that you will get are the ones you will use in your life,but when you are small and your parents let you watch a lot of TV maybe you are not aware that those programs are fictions.

In conclusion i think that all depend of the person some people take it easy and others take it with more emotions but the bases you should get from your house and school,so your behavior and mentality depends of your parents,school and also how you control emotions.

OPINION ESSAY- Paula Asensio

In our society all the people watch TV programs, where you can see a lot of things. We see a lot of violence, and we have already normalized it and it shouldn’t be like that. Maybe this affects our minds, I’m not sure. 

I personally consider that seeing all that violence in the tv doesn’t make us more violence. For example, if it really affected us we could kill someone for any reason and there would be many more deaths.

From my point of view, each person is how their parents have educated him, who have taught you how to deal with problems and solve them. You as you get older according to what you have lived do some things or others, if something very bad has not happened to you, you don't have to be violent.

In conlusion, We don't have to worry about that because I consider that the laws are there to control people and that they don't go crazy, people obey.

OPINION ESSAY- Erola Fernandez

Many teenagers watch TV programs or movies where appears violence, both physical and verbal, but does it really affect what we see on TV with our behavior? I don’t think so but I think it’s very subjective.

From my point of view, I don’t think we get more violent just for the things we see on TV, movies, series... because if we are enough matures, we’ll know what things are bad and which aren’t. For example, If I watch a movie were I see someone killing another because of a discussion, I wouldn’t kill somebody in real life just for a little fight.

Furthermore, I think that your behavior depends on the education that you received when you were little. Your parents are the ones who gave you the bases of your conduct and then you create your personality according to the experiences that you lived. 

In conclusion, we’re old enough to don’t get influenced by violent acts that appear on television or even video games. We know how that violence is bad because we had a good education. I think that violent behavior depends more on the education that you received.

Opinion Essay- Patricia Totusaus

Nowadays, all teenagers we see violence constantly, as physical or verbal, and it is well known that some of them are directly influenced, but also others are not, that’s the reason why I think that violence that’s shown on television it’s not the responsibility of the increasing the violence in society, more particularly for teenagers.

 In my opinion, I think that some juvenile could be influeted by some TV violence, but not all of them, if we were influenced we would usually have violent attitudes, the one’s whom act usually violently are maybe influenced by TV programs but also could be influenced by others ways. 

Furthermore, I believe that actual TV programs aren’t the problem of teen violence, is the result of amount of facts whose make adolescent be violent. If I am a mother, I won’t censor or prohibit some programs for my children because it’s true that some of them are a little bit hard, but I think that banning things is worse, and through the knowledge you can know the consequences and recognize mistakes.

To sum up, teenagers who are violent aren’t only by TV programs, it’s difficult to include all cases under the same heading but in general I think that programs, movies… are not a threaten to the wellness of adolescents.

Opinion essay - Judith Vegas

Violence among teenagers increases when more violence is shown on television? It is a really subjective thing to talk about, because it depends if you are an influenced person you will probably become more violent​, but in the other hand my opinion in general is that teenagers don’t become more violent ​even if they see violence on different tv programs. 

In my opinion, is common among adults to daily discuss whether their children's television programs are violent or not or whether they will react the same way they see on the programs or movies, as I told you before​, in my point of view, teenagers don’t become more violent neither aggressive, for seeing several tv series or movies which content wars or aggressive plots​, like for example one movie I saw last weekend that is based on the first world war ​and as it should be, shows several scenes of violence of the war, but it doesn’t influence my way of seeing the world or resolving my problems with violence, because it’s never the solution. 

Secondly​, I could show you several examples where people don’t act as everything they see, or either do the several murders that are shown on the news, moreover videogames also promote violence sometimes, and teenagers who play that kind of games don’t become violent or aggressive. 

In conclusion if I had to summarize all the arguments I have told you I would say that teenagers are mature enough​, to decide how they want to act, and generally don’t allow themselves to be influenced by any kind of content that is shown on tv programs.

OPINION ESSAY

Many people use violence as a way to solve their problems because they think is easier than discuss. But I think this is because they have not been properly educated, which is not schools’ fault. If kids see violence in their environment, such as in television, they will not think it is a bad thing.

Personally, I believe the danger of showing violence is not only that teenagers copy it, but also that they do not realize the severity of their actions. Consequently, the teenager, whom see violence as normal, will be immune to the horror of it.

Furthermore, I strongly agree that is also dangerous for the victim. For instance, imagine an adolescent watching a show where a person is being brutally kicked. If the young felt identified with the character, he may be afraid of being the victim.  

However, this does not mean that kids or teenagers can not watch television. If the parents are aware of the content which they are looking at, it can be even beneficial.

All in all, violence among teenagers, increases when more violence is shown on television. But in my opinion, we can prevent this very easily. Do not let your children watch inadequate content when they are not old enough.  

Opinion Essay-Sara García

Everyone says that the violence in our society is because of television and also because of programs. We know what we see and it is normal to depend on what type is normal as it affects television in people.

Today's programs are more violent, that on the one hand can be good since it can get us used to seeing those things and when it is in person it may not shock us so much. But on the other hand it can make us more aggressive, either to defend ourselves or simply to do the same as we have seen. Surely if there were less aggressive programs, there would be less war, fights, kidnappings in the world ...

As an example, I have watched series and played aggressive video games with my brother or another family member, and I have never been aggressive or done something serious. I know that at some point I have become aggressive and I have reached physical contact, but it has only been nonsense of children has not been for anything on television.

In my opinion, many people tell me or I have heard that teenagers are supposed to be guilty of many of these problems of violence, but it is not true, many cases of adult people who have caused serious crimes are on TV. Besides that not all teenagers are influenced by these programs.

In conclusion, television is not to blame for all these problems. Although we remove or cover this, there will still be violence.

Opinion Essay-Marc Martínez

Nowadays,it is said that violence in sociey increase when more violence is shown in television
It is really true ?

The first point is that fil most of people know that films and series are a fiction.However,there are some people who are agressive who  can have been influenced with the violence which appears in movies but also with other things such as strret violence or domestic violence , so I think that is very complex point

Futhermore, people like to see violence because as I said before, is not real .In fact , anybody who likes to use violence is considerated dangerous by the society

To conclude , I want to finish saying that violence in films can help to make that people don't do some actitudes which are shown in films so it can reduce violence

Opinion essay - Raúl Rivera

OPINION ESSAY

Nowadays, it is becoming more and more common the violence in society, especially among teenagers.  However, the question we need to answer is if violence increases when we see more violence on television.

Personally, I believe that this is true. For example, when people are playing videogames or watching smackdown come to think that they are living in another world, without rules and that’s why they become vandals. However, if they saw that this entails a punishment, they would not do it.

Furthermore, in my opinion that people imitate what they see through screen with the intention of confirm the effects. My uncle have a daughter whose do the same thing one hundred times for verify what happens. If she was older, she wouldn’t have to confirm it.

In conclusion, I think that this things depends on age and the level of personal development. I am of the opinion that we shouldn’t globalise because each person is different and not all people act in the same way.

OPINION ESSAY-Roser Garcia

Everyday when we walk in the street, we see violence around us, but we are not consious of all the aggression that we see in something so common like TV.
Violence is always a thing to worry about, but it is more worring when teenagers get influenced by that.

In my opinion it is true that some teenagers are easily influenced by all kind of TV programs, because, they are more common in their lifes.
But not all the teenagers whom I talked to you before get influenced by TV programs.

I am a teenager and if I was one producer of a TV show, I would try to erase it, because it might be harmful for the mind-health of some teenagers.
Nevermind, it is also true that a part of fault is for the parents whom allow them to see that kind of shows.
Certainly, if I had a teenager and I was his/her mother, I would not allow him / her to watch that kind of TV programs that only develop his/her violence.

Furthermore, that is the first step we need to follow for a beter-minded society. Even so, that is not the only thing we can do.
Teeangers als need to know what is good for theirselves, and whats is damaging.

Finally, i am sure that if we can do that, in a near future, we might be able to protect even more those people who we care about.

Opinion Essay - Iván Giménez Prieto

Nowadays, we are living in a world full of people who commit crimes and break the law,   sometimes for doing something not so bad like steal something in a shop is punished very harsh. Over the years, the violence in young people has increased and maybe it’s because the teenagers see that violent acts in the TV.

In my opinion, If the teenagers didn’t watch these type of programs, they wouldn’t do the same, I’m not saying that teenagers must not see these things in the TV, I’m only saying that they have to control and reconsider what is right or not right. If the aggressive people had been aware before, they wouldn’t act like that, this awareness should be implemented in all the families and even in the school.

Although there are a lot of families that restrict the violence in  their sons, the parental control has decreased in the last years, one of the best examples is the videogames, a lot of parents let their sons play videogames which are not recommended for their age ( they usually contains any type of violence ) and this is wrong because while the kids are playing it, they think that all of that is well-seen in our society and they copy it.

To sum up, I see these type of series in the TV and I play videogames like that, but is not a problem for me because  I know how to differentiate the right from the wrong controlling myself.

OPINION ESSAY-Melanie Arteaga

Nowadays, Television can be a powerful influence in developing behaviour, especially among teenagers. Unfortunately, most of TV programs are violent, most of the people who have researched this topic have discovered that violence on television is one of the factors contributing to the increase of aggressive behavior.

Personally, Television can educate us, help us to entertain and allows people to express their views on a specific topic. If the parents taught what is right and what not, the children would learn more and know how to behave in front of others.

Furthermore, the people who watch a lot of violence on television could attain aggressive behavior. I feel that the way the media portrays certain things, purposely affect people’s emotions. Also, If the parents were more attentive to their children, they wouldn’t be more aggressive.

In conclusion, I think is that just because someone watches a violent movie or plays a violent video games, doesn’t mean that person will go out or act and copy what they have seen or heard. I feel that it differs from each person, but also that it depends on each individual’s cultural influences.
