In our society childhood is disappearing more and more to where children are not children very long. As you know that we only have eighteen years of being children in our entire life. Parents struggle to keep their children innocent and happy. Every-time children move from one step of their life to another step such as crawling, walking, talking, going to pre school, middle school, high school then graduate from college, parents feel so happy to see their kids growing, but at the same time they feel nostalgic thinking about the good old days. Nowadays children are growing too fast, they dressed up like adults, they talk like adult as well. Parents are trying to keep their kids young and happy as much as they can, but in the other hand the environment, the people, the technology and even parents are making children becoming adults sooner in crazy ways. How do you feel when you see your 12 year-old-daughter is wearing a tight pants with the word “Juice” or “sexy” on her butt?
It is always good to see your children grow up, but not if they grow up too fast and not in the innocent way. Parents should pay more attention to children. Parents should listen to the kids when they are talking, give them good advice, avoid giving them negative feedbacks and yelling. I have read a book called the Popular Culture written by Ray B. Browne, and in his book one of the article called “ Don’t let your childhood die” in the end of the book the author said kids look for icons on TV to steer them in the right direction. All the characters are violent, and the writer said that kids need a little evil in-order-to grow up. If so how are they going to fix that? How are they going make any movies or shows for kids that without violent? Because I have watched many kids movies and shows, there is always violent in the movies.
