Consuming Kids

The mass media in our society targets mainly children. The media affects everyone but it is easier to target children alone. I think that children are more naive and they have a different perspective than adults. They know little about what is going on in our society which means they care less about what they get themselves into. For example, there are kids that play games involving violence; do they know that this happens in reality? The answer is no. If it's fun and enjoyable, then that is all that they care about. The media does not care what goes on to their product just as long as it is seen and leaves an impact. I believe that our future will change if this continues. In fact, our media will most likely double its impact on consumers and it will change our society. We will always be saturated in media no matter what we do. We can not avoid it because the technology and knowledge of the people are increasing everyday.
