According to a study by Dr. Suzanne Lego, crime has decreased over the last 10 years in all areas except one, youth violence. Dr. Lego says a study by Dr. Joyce Brothers found that when a gun is placed on a table in a room where children are playing, and without anyone coming into physical contact with the gun, aggression increases in the level of play. According to Dr. Lego, the same behavior was manifested when a television was tuned to a violent and action-packed program (Lego). In my opinion, this increased level of aggression does not disappear simply because the cause of the aggression has been removed. . Rather, this aggression remains in the subconscious mind waiting for the perfect opportunity to manifest itself through action. Repressed aggression can manifest itself through bullying, playing sports, fighting with other people, or even the death of another child. The problem is understanding why some individuals turn to killing others rather than killing someone. turn to a positive release like playing sports. Boxing, football, basketball, soccer, and wrestling are just a few of the many positive triggers for this unexpressed aggression. It might be beneficial if teachers, coaches and parents paid more attention to the children in their care and, if these children show signs of aggression, persuade them to participate in the positive release of aggressiveness. As adults, especially Christian adults. , we have a responsibility to these children to guide them in the direction that is respectable and right. Proverbs 22:6 is very clear on this point; “Educate a child in the way he should follow; and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
