look what pop culture has done 2

This is another example of the socialization of children. It’s kind of hard to tell what the little girl is saying, since she is again only three, and she’s a bit more hard to understand compared to the last toddler. Despite the difficulty in understanding, I’m pretty sure this little girl said something about learning it in a movie. If you haven’t watched the clip, this girl says that if she sees a monster she will “kick his ass”. She says that if she doesn’t the monster will kick her ass, because that’s what she saw in a movie. Again, children’s brains are extremely easy to mould. With the rise of television, parents have turned to the ELECTRONIC BABYSITTER. Parents find it much simpler to place their kids in front of the TV for a couple hours, rather than finding imaginative ways to keep the children busy. Unfortunately, once the parents leave the room, they don’t know what’s being shown on the television. This form of media is socializing todays children, perhaps more than their parents, friends, and teachers. We need to make this media child friendly because of the fact that we have to be very careful regarding what these kids are absorbing. Again, I would like to point out that there are much more fundamental skills that these children can be learning.TV has proved to us that children are learning at this young age. If this is so, these years should be spent developing the minds and opinion of these kids to make an intelligent generation of them. There are so many important things that can be introduced to young chidren as opposed to media that teaches children swear words.
