Entertainment?

[JakeWIlls92]

Let's look at people in my age group (Boomers) who grew up in a world where corporal punishment was administered at home and school, we were exposed to far less violent entertainment, we were held to higher standards of behavior and performance, and generally taught to take responsibility for ourselves. Compare us to today's young people (Millennials?), most of whom have little experience with tangible punishment, have been over-exposed to all manner of increasingly graphic violent entertainment, have been trained to believe that they are owed pretty much whatever they want, and who have been relieved of personal responsibility. Now, explain please, just how does corporal punishment damage children?

So you want to get rid of violent entertainment. Unfortunately for gallantwarrior I like my space battles!

Even first-person shooters are nothing new...they were around for the original NES 30 years ago!
