I think that cartoons and violent video games can be very dangerous for children, because they don't fully understand the repercussions for their actions yet. I remember my uncle telling me a story about when he was little, he said that my mom put a pencil through his ear because she expected it to come out the other side like in a cartoon. His eardrum was punctured by the pencil. And another story where she hit him in the head with a frying pan, I guess she expected a bunch of stars and birds to start flying around him. He got a pretty serious concussion from it. She didn't mean to hurt him, they were just playing like they had been taught by cartoons. |
