    Harmful Media Exposure

    in Children
    What can parents do to help?

    By: Sarah Speidel


    ● How does relentless
    exposure to violent
    media mold young
    minds?
    ● What consequences
    does it hold for their
    future?
    Violent Media
    ● “The average child will witness
    12,000 violent acts on television
    each year, amounting to
    200,000 violent acts by the time
    he turns 18 years old.”
    Thesis
    ● Parents and other caregivers can
    take proactive and retroactive
    steps to help guide their children
    through the complex landscape of
    media
    ● Increased aggression
    ● Lower rates of empathy
    ● Lower rates of prosocial behavior
    Proactive Steps
    ● Limit Screen Time
    ● Monitor Media
    ● Promote Other Activities
    Retroactive Steps
    ● Open Dialogue
    ● Professional Help
    Counter Argument 1

    Restricting children’s media restricts


    their independence and autonomy.
    Counter Argument 2

    Not every child becomes aggressive


    after playing violent video games
    or watching harmful media.
