Abstract
This paper will review several studies of violence in today's media of television and electronic gaming and how it significantly affects aggression levels in children. These studies have looked at the direct and indirect effects of violence in the media and how it produces more aggression in an adolescent who is not properly guided by a parent or guardian. These studies will show that without proper parental consent and explanation about violence, children have a more accessible schema of aggression. The articles review television violence and electronic gaming violence, and how children are unable to tell the difference of what is real and fake. As a result, they incorporate violence into their own realities. Because of that result, they are considered to be hostile.
