Should Pro Athletes Be Held Re
Regardless of age, sex, ethnicity, or personal interest, everyone at one point in their life had somebody that they looked up to, or modeled their life around. It could have been a parent, teacher, priest, or perhaps someone famous. Many young kids today look up to celebrities, which include actors, musicians, and most notably professional athletes. Most kids see celebrities as “heroes” and often look up to them because they envy that person’s position in life and in most cases would like to grow up to be like that person. One reason why kids look up to celebrities is because they’re very well known and can regularly be seen on television, thus having their personal and private lives be easily accessible for the public’s viewing. When in the eye of the public 24/7, these celebrities are faced with constant media and public scrutiny, having everything they do watched closely under a microscope. Even when an athlete does something remotely wrong, it’s completely blown out of proportion. I don’t believe that athletes should be held responsible for the actions of others due to that particular athlete’s behavior. I know that many people probably disagree with my standing on this issue, but I will attempt to explain myself.
