sports violence and its effects on children



With increasing amounts of violence in sports today our children are becoming more and more accustomed to it. With the media's influence, our society has grown to appreciate and encourage misbehavior in athletic events. Our children of today look to athletes as role models and have begin to mimic their violent trends. With the emphasis on winning and the overflowing emotions in athletic competition it is essential that we encourage good sportsmanship, positive attitudes, and reminders that winning isn't everything.
