the Other Kind of Bullying

the Other Kind of  Bullying

 In general, we usually believe that children’s aggressive behaviors come from the the effect of alcohol and drugs as well as the influence of growing environment. However, as a matter of fact, we ignore the great effects of mass media in modern society such as television.

On the one hand, we desire to enhance the number of entertainment for children, but for entertainment producer, they prefer to make more profits from these objects regardless of the aggressive influence. Therefore, children would be easier to get more violent plots from TV.It’s not surprising that learners’ affective reactions are often inextricably intertwined with their thinking and learning. And for children, if they learn things like this from media, it is no doubt to say their behaviors would be more aggressive.

On the other hand, not only should parents pay attention to the impact from media, but also teachers and local educators should focus on reducing the proportion of violent actions which result from media. Therefore, for remedying the situation, firstly, they should notice that learners can also associate specific topics and pieces of information with certain emotions, in other words, learners are more likely to pay attention to think actively about, and remember emotionally charged information. Thus, educators should avoid referring to the topics about violence and conveying the aggressive emotion to their students.
