Role models are extremely important in the development of children. Some would say America is lacking in role models or kids are emulating bad ones. Why is this? What do you think you as an individual can do to promote positive role models in our society
I personally think that "bad" is the new cool now; everywhere i turn there is girls wearring more and more revealling clothing just cas they see it on telivision that less is more. Young males are starting to carry drugs in ELEMENTARY! and using them just because everyone is doing it. i think that tv is a big source of our youths role models and just flip through the channels and she how many uplifting people you see on there, if you do see any on there. what i try to do is watch minimum tv, i can admit that i watch on demand here in there but really i do just for movies. i do not see anything positive on television anymore, when this happened i dont know and if it will get better i dont think so.sucks but i just think that people should strive to be cool for themselves and as themselves and i think a domino affect can happen from this were a child sees you going against the norm and tries to be theirself as well.I donno i think it starts off with the parent and then moves on to tv and society so i think that parents should stay actively invovled in their child’s life with close bonds to guide them on the right path till they are old enough to do that for themselves.

the real problem we have in USA is the TV, they are a plaque that teaches nothing good. not even little kids shows these days. We need to have a serious change. TV is about gay reality shows that are FAKE so people that watch them are fake. MTV’s real world and all those types are worthless and tell me what does it teach?

Look at some of Ameria’s so called role models. They are all anorexic, on drugs, partying until five am, or dead from an overdose.
