Eliminate Children's Exposure to Media Violence

Created by T.P. on December 15, 2012

Children learn how to behave from the stories of their time, and the mass media are today's story-tellers. Children grow up thinking violence is normal, and then there is a greater likelihood that they will respond to problems by acting out in violence. We must help parents protect their children.

This petition calls on President Obama to:
1) immediately implement regulations eliminating distribution of violent video games.
2) control the broadcasting of violent shows and movies across mass media (television, internet, streaming video etc.)
3) create a review board for news media to limit the coverage of mass murders, violent riots, suicide bombings, battle scenes etc.

We must take control of the violence our children are exposed to. Please sign and forward this petition.
