Violence in Young due to Action in TV and Cinema

A lot of  people believe that the amount of violence shown on TV and in the cinema affects the actions of our young people and therefore increases the amount of violence in our society today.
Do you agree or disagree with this statement? What can be done to reduce violence in our society today ?

    Now-a-days television and cinema are the most easily accessible source of entertainment. Most of the movies now-a-days show large amount of action. Even the animations have big amount of violence e.g. "Rango". Television programs like WWF shows dirty violence. This increasing violence in television and cinema is really affecting the young minds adversely.

    It is a fact that visual things affect our mind very fast and they remain in memory for long time. The kids don't have knowledge to decide what is right or wrong. They learn and try to imitate what they see, whether from their parents or from television.They feel glamor in what they do by committing violence. When these kids grow, they tend to be more aggressive in many situations rather than being calm. Many times we have seen in news that few young bikers created nuisance on the road at midnight as they were just inspired by the movies like "Fast and Furious".

    To reduce this increasing tendency of violence in young, we need to refrain kids from watching too much television and engage them other activities like arts, music and outdoor sports. Being aware of the age of the children when they start seeing these things and raise the age limit will help in preventing this. Another solution can be to control the violent behavior of a young. Rather than putting them in prison, put them in the army, where their violence can be controlled and they will learn discipline.

    In the conclusion I completely agree that our society is really facing the large amount of violence specially from young people. There are few thing that can be done to control the situation but it will be very difficult I think.
