I think this section is very important because it brings up a topic that is starting to affect more and more kids daily. With kids playing all of these violent video games at a young age, the violence sinks into their very absorbent minds and could change their psyche. When a child begins to perceive what is on the t.v. screen is real and translates it into the real world that is where the problems begin. A child's temper is easily tampered with and if it is altered enough that child could grow to be an angry person with mental issues. This page will show some examples of how video games had to do with some of the most horrific losses of human life. Parents will find it hard to realize that graphics on a television screen could potentially change their children and turn them into murders.
What's Real and What's Not?
Above are images that most teenager in America would recognize. Call of Duty, Zombies, Max Payne are all video games that top the charts in violence. The two pictures in the middle are teenagers that played those games, and applied what they saw and put it into real life. Some people get so wrapped up in the virtual world they lose sight of what is real and what isn't. People should know that video games are starting to become more and more violent, and because of that kids at younger ages have more of an attitude and anger issue.
The Deadly Reality
In the past years school shootings and random bombings have become more and more prevalent. Above, the two photos in the middle are pictures showing kids that killed people because of what they saw in video games. Some of the most malicious killings have been executed by the person practicing their plan by playing the video games Halo and Call of Duty. These give a real look into how war is and the strategies that are needed to make and execute a plan of mass murder. The heading of this page is a scene from the opening level of a Call of Duty game where you the gamer, kill hundreds of innocent people in an airport. When a person that already has mental issues sees something like this, it may just send them over the edge and make them believe that it's okay to kill innocent people.
How the madness begins
Where it could go...
Solution
Take your child fishing, throw the baseball, kick a soccer ball around, shoot some hoops, anything that burns off some tension. An outdoor activity is a great way to burn energy spent sitting playing video games. If a child builds up on frustration with out a way to get rid of it it could lead to serious problems.
