Images of violence and action movies pollute the creative mind of children. Such images can leave a mark on their personality. Also children, especially teens, tend to get more aggressive and argumentative after watching bloodshed and violent behaviour on TV.
Those children who are mostly influenced by such aggressive TV shows develop a tendency to act like bullies in schools among their peers. This bullying culture stimulates peer pressure and other complexities among the children. Parents should monitor their children while they are watching different programmes. As an extra precaution ‘child locks’ can be set on such channels that are not suitable for viewing by children.
