Issues of Concern-Language/Sex/Violence
When Parents and Grandparents were asked to focus
specifically on things available to children today, including movies,
television, game and toys, Sexual content and Violent themes are
listed as concerns for slightly more than half of Parents and Grandparents.
- Moms are clearly more concerned than Dads, particularly when it
come to graphic or adult language.
Parental Intervention
Moms intervene in potentially violent situations
more often than Dads or Grandparents.
- Moms are also more likely
to miss opportunities to intervene when, perhaps, they felt they
should have.
Reason for Intervention
For the most part, this intervention was to protect
the child from media depictions of violence, NOT FROM AN ACTUAL
THREAT OF VIOLENCE.
- However, in about 1 in 4 cases, intervention was to protect the
child from potential bodily/mental harm.
