Ironically, studies have shown that certain types of movies, music and reading materials are linked to mental illnesses. For example, pornographic material has been proven to affect individuals dramatically to the point of murder, rape and other violent crimes. Such materials affect even an individual without mental illnesses simply because someone falls victim to a predator along the path. Violent movies and music has also proven to affect the mind. More and more children today are violent, and studies have shown that video games, movies and music play a large role in the children’s behaviors. Studies has also shown that children are committing murder, rape, taking drugs, alcohol, and interrupting others peoples life as a result from obsessive entertainment behaviors. Although few argue that this is ludicrous, they have no idea what they are talking about, since the ones arguing are the sources that are producing such interrupting noises. Not so long ago a young man claimed after hearing the song “Kill your Mother” countless of times, the lyrics went to his head and he acted out accordingly to the song. This is only one account linked to entertainment and mental health. Mental health is nothing to toy with and the rules were laid out from the beginning. Even God acknowledged and made it aware to everyone that such behaviors would cause disaster. Proven faithful to His words, the word is going mad because of polluted behaviors created by entertainment. Do not get me wrong, not all entertainment is bad. However, the truth is if you are associating with bad, then bad will come to you and everyone around you because of the action. However, if you are associating with good, then rewards are sure to follow. Not everyone with mental illnesses however engage in wrongful behaviors, actions, or self-exposing themselves to entertainment that harms. At least not directly, but somewhere in their lifetime they were exposed indirectly to this type of behavior. I am promising you that everyone in their lifetime has been exposed to this behavior, everyone with the exceptions of newborns. It is time we look at what goes on around us to improve mental health. We will be pounding our heads against the walls for a lifetime if we do not admit that harmful entertainment is part of the problem. Children learn what they hear, see, and are taught. Likewise, adults learn what they see, hear and are taught. No one is an exception the rule, and all of us are subjects to influences. Life is too short to be playing around with dangers. Either we are in this together are we are all working toward a disastrous future. Satisfaction guaranteed since it is showing in all areas of life. Take the terrorist attack in New York recently. What do you think linked this mental ailment to reality? While there are many explanations and reasons, the main reason is the culprits were exposed to violence during their lifetime and this is what they knew according to what they saw, worked. In addition, it did to a degree. Somewhere down the line people were communicating, however very few were listening, otherwise this would not have happen in the first place. Somebody in this picture was complaining and trying to express their emotions and thoughts, yet somebody on the other side was ignoring the cries. What it boils down to is how a person believes. If a person believes after being taught that violence is the answer to resolve a problem, then violence is what you are going to see and everyone will be affected as a result. You do not play around with faith, either you are in the race to win, or else you are on the road to death. Finally, we can see that entertainment is today more graphic, and depicts inexplicit pictures on nearly every channel, radio station, and so on today. It seems the morals and values are going down the tube, while the world is going deeper and deeper into chaos and war. No one can fix a problem as quickly as the problem occurred, but somewhere someone has to get started to resolving what has already been done.
