nce cable television should not be accessible in their homes.It has been said that violence effects our youth..In the United States, youth violence is a public health problem.. no one is claiming that t.v. Violence is the sole cause of the epidemic. Eron pg616 There will always be violence on t.v. because t.v. Portrays our lives and regardless of circumstances there will always be violence. Censorship may stop the viewing of violence on t.v. but it will still be seen. It is not up to networks and producers to decide weither a show is to violent for children. Different people will have different views as to what is suitable. It is solely the parents responsibility, American Psychological Association..reported in 1992 that be the end of elementary school the average American child has watched..many acts of violence on television. The problem of controlling what children watch is not the networks responsibility it is the parents. A parent should decide what their child could watch at what age. The whole nation should not be punished because some parents do not know how to regulate television watching. The solution is better parenting not network censorship.TV violence and its effect on children is a problem in America today, but censorship is only one solution. There are many ways to stop the harmful effects of violence. Censorship will take away our rights, when parents should be the censors themselves. It is also unlogical when we have both network television and cable. There are more logical conclusions to end this epidemic besides censorship....
