Movies and television are popular ways of entertainment among people in modern society. But in my eyes, they have more negative effects than positive effects on young people’s behavior.

First of all, the fighting scene in movies and television teach young people how to act violently. For example, young people tend to imitate big heroes’ motion, through which they hit their enemies with great power. According to a psychological research conducted in the 1970s, the frequency of young people’s fight is higher in the region where violent movies are more popular. Apparently, violent films and television lead young people to be aggressive.

Second, some young people may imitate the cool but dangerous tricks played in the movies or television, which may make them injured. Many cool behaviors shown on the screen are hazardous, like playing fireworks or driving fast. However, most of the films and TV program will not remind the audience that these behaviors are under strict guidance. In this case, young people who are easy to be attracted by these cool tricks and imitate them are in great danger. Recently, a girl in China followed a television program to make a popcorn bomb herself. Unfortunately, she was severely hurt when the bomb exploded and passed away five days later.

Third, some characters in movies and television may break the law or treat others cruelly, but the movies or TV program just pose emphasis on their bravery and strength. As a result, young people do not realize the characters’ mistakes and cannot recognize their own illegal behaviors in real life. For example, there are some movies describing killers. In the movies, the killers are incredibly calm and brave, although they kill others arbitrary. Young people who watch the films may admire the killers’ excellent skills but neglect the fact that they are committing a crime. Consequently, these young people may also grab the gun and kill people around them.

In a word, violent, dangerous and illegal action are widely accepted in movies and television. Therefore, they have negative impacts on the way young people behave.
