Recently, there are media reports that 5-year-old children watched the toilet drinks in cartoons, and also took a cup to scoop water on their own toilet to drink, and violent and criminal elements are involved in cartoons. Around the question "whether the screening scale of cartoons on the market needs to be further strictly controlled", the relevant departments launched a survey, and 828 parents said "need", accounting for 80.7%. Related topics once triggered heated discussion among netizens (Liaoning Evening News public number April 10)
In this regard, some netizens said that parents are absent in the education process. Parents should be the main guides of children's behavior, and the education of children cannot rely on the external environment. Some netizens also believe that parents have repeatedly put forward requirements for the external environment to reduce "dangerous elements", which is also a behavior of cultivating "flowers and plants in the greenhouse", and overly sensitive will make children vulnerable. Netizens have different views, and there are not a few who do not want to "animate the back pot".
In fact, the so-called "representative minor animations on the market" involved in this survey are probably debatable in terms of content characterization. For example, Guo manga's "Assassin Wu LiuQi", "Heavenly Official Blessing", Ni manga's "Life in Another World from Scratch", "Detective Conan", its animation audience and original readership are biased towards adults over the age of 14, or even over 18 years old, so anime content production is originally oriented to the adult worldview, and the representation is not strong.
Looking further, "Diga Ultraman", "Breaking the Sky", "Full-time Master" and other animation films that are suitable for under the age of 14 and over 6 years old, most of the young audience groups have established a formed world view, not to graft the world view of the animation content into the real society. Even if there is a violent factor, the inductiveness is presumably much lower than that of war movies, martial arts movies, and science fiction movies. It is also a film and television content that is easy for teenagers to contact, how can animation be looked at differently?
In fact, since the birth of the first anime "Gertie the Dinosaur" in 1909, the form of creation of the anime work has determined that it cannot be the same as real life. From the animated stories of animal anthropomorphism that young children like, to the genres of science fiction, fantasy, and other worlds that young teenagers like, as long as they are anime works, they have surreal content. Instead of worrying about children imitating animated content, it is better not to show children cartoons.
Today, some parents question whether the animal protagonist of the cartoon should not scoop toilet water to drink, and tomorrow there are parents who hope that the animal characters of the cartoon should drink blood like real animals. Isn't it a contradiction to worry that children learn badly because of the unrealistic content in cartoons, and to hope that children will retain their childlike fantasies by watching cartoons? Let me ask, since I was a child, after watching "Sun Wukong Makes a Big Fuss in the Heavenly Palace", "Tom and Jerry", and "Transformers", have you become a nerd, a fool or a crazy person?
The investigation of the "violation of the safety of minors in the field of animation" and the measurement of the threat of cartoons from the perspective of parents are obviously not objective and fair enough. After all, as long as it is a parent, they want the danger to be completely away from their children. An overly worried mindset is bound to affect the impartiality of the investigation. We don't have to underestimate the rational judgment of children and young people, they should be the protagonists of the investigation, and measure the impact of animation works with their eyes. At the very least, parents interviewed and surveyed should be able to stand on the same level as their children.
In the face of some content that may involve excessive violence and danger, it is not necessary to reject it, or it is necessary to classify and grade animation to supply the world of teenagers according to demand. At the same time, parents can not be bystanders, but to be supervisors, see children watching animation content beyond the age level, stop it in time, and pull the child's line of sight back.
Obsessed with anime and manga, even adults can behave irrationally. But growing up in a healthy family, children and teenagers have a much larger contact with real life than with virtual anime. Excessive concern about the threat of animated elements to children, I am afraid that I have ignored the impact of realistic education on children. We should see that behind the phenomenon of a small number of children imitating animation self-harm, there are factors that parents neglect education. Spend more time with your child to resolve the negative effects. Throwing a child to a television is the greatest irresponsibility.
