So today morning I read an article on FOX that some two girls in the US aged 11 and 12 watched a horror movie that really inspired them to do the unthinkable. They started worshipping satan and planned how they would kill 15-25 kids in their school. Its an automatic call to one of the parents that saved the lives of many innocent kids and they were to kill so that they can earn a place in hell!!
This is sad.
BARTOW, Fla. -- Two middle school girls in Florida planned to go on a stabbing spree and kill several students Tuesday, according to WTVT. Bartow police said a Bartow Middle School teacher heard about the plan from a student and notified the principal, who

Unfortunately, young people these days are easily influenced--particularly by evil.

This is why we have this parental guidance advisory in our television. To remind the parents that children should be monitored when watching tv. But then, who really listens to it, I'm not sure.
Reminds me da vinci code were one of the viewers immediately lost faith in christ...

Parents will only control when they are there otherwise when they are not home, they do not have much control.

I have never believed that movies, books, music, or any other thing inspires anyone to do anything they would not have found to do anyway. People who have mental issues simply have mental issues, and with or without any influence their mental issues would have found these people doing despicable acts. If that were not the case, every single person would commit horrible acts who watched something depicting horrible acts.

The impact of movies on children is really great. The children are at an age of imitation. It's better for them to watch some positive movies.

That was very scary thing.
I believe movies and shows got big influence to kids. Thst is why parents should be the one to be with them when watching to explain such provocative stories.

Yep, if you're not the thinking kind of kid, you might get influence easily by those kind of movies.

Movies do have big influence on our minds. A lady underwent 12 different kinds of facial surgery just so she could look like Angelina Jolie.
