We've been hearing a lot lately about the rising of teen violence in America. In past 10 years violence in schools has became a very common thing. Many people advocate the need to prosecute young offenders as adults for their crimes, to lock them up in prison like adults for long terms, and to execute them like adults for capital offenses. Under zero tolerance policy teenagers are not getting any excuses for their crimes. No one is trying to understand them or ask them why they are doing that. People blame that the media, music and the parents for the crimes that are being committed by teenagers. Are the media, music and the parents really responsible for the teen violence? When asked different people had their different opinions for it. Some blamed the music, some blamed the media and some blamed the parents. Why do they think these are main three reasons for the teen violence?

Lets fast check out why and how music has an affect on the teens. Every body knows Eminem and his music. Most people thinks that his words are foul in inappropriate. Eminem's music makes your blood hot no do

ce. But there is one reason media can use to get out of this blame is that whatever they show is for entertainment. " Media is showing the death and the killing of human being, how it suppose to be entertaining?" says my mother who really has a point. Even though I do like WWF wrestling what has too much violence in it, I still agree with my mother. The wrestlers do say not to try the moves at home but why do teenagers still try to do that? They are just being stupid and you can't blame the media for it.

In conclusion, there's one last thing to say blame yourself instead of blaming the media, music or whatever. Media and music is just for entertainment and it shouldn't be a part of your life. I will blame the parents because it's the parent's job to give a better life to their children and if they can't do it then they shouldn't have the right to give birth. Like Marilyn Manson said "if I ever become the president, I will make the mother to take an exam before giving birth to the child". hat he means is that the mother should pass the certain test to give birth. Lets not blame each other but try to stop violence all together. Its not Eminem, its not Marilyn Manson its not even the media I believe it's the parents who are behind the teen violence.

In the book Helping Teens Stop Violence by Allan Creighton and Paul Kivel there is a reference for teachers, counselors and parents to help the teenagers to avoid violence. Any ideas supporting an end to the cycle of violence and discrimination in our teen population developed by these authors is a guarantee of a resource that is valuable and effective. The activities, exercises and information presented in this book seek to encourage teachers, parents and counselors of teens and the teens themselves to look into their own experiences and enlighten and expose their own potentially violent and discriminative attitudes. The authors explain the cycle of violence as beginning with the oppression and discrimination of people based on race, religion, gender, class, etc. The frustration and hopelessness felt by the oppressed manifests itself in the form of a violent act on the individual him or herself or on another person. By using this perspective the authors demonstrate the impo!
