[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 518019, member: 6546"] I think SusieStar is exactly right! It is beyond strange to me that advertisers spend millions trying to find just the right way to influence you in a 15 to 30 second commercial - and yet we outright dismiss the idea that hours and hours of television, computer and video games has any impact at all on the minds of our children. Human beings learn through experience...hence the theory that aggression is "learned behavior". Why must we assume that somebody, somewhere must be spanking the child in order for that child to learn aggressive behaviors? Is that [I]really[/I] the only possible aggressive experience a child is getting? [I]Really[/I]? Gosh - I remember adults complaining about the violence in the Roadrunner/Coyote cartoons! And that was only on Saturday mornings...AND the tv was off before noon! Today, there are households where the tv is on all day every day...and the shows are a lot worse than the coyote getting an anvil dropped on his head! [/QUOTE]
