Nice observation. To add on sexual intercourse is just an advanced form of a relationship, so what’s a bad influence is actually an expression of love - it’s quite a conundrum.

I tried reading these books, waaayyy too much rape in them. The bloody violence I could handle, but after the 3rd gang rape, I decided the author didn’t have what I was looking for.

How much blood is in Fortnite?

This is thrown around all the time but I’m not sure I’m convinced by a point it’s trying to make. When I was a kid, I watched someone get shot by police through their car window and die. Stuck with me for many years, and my parents always blamed themselves for bringing us to the wrong place at the wrong time, but it wasn’t their fault. Things like that just happen randomly and it’s very much a part of life.

Add to that your grandparents dying, pets getting hit by cars, or whole communities dying of sickness, this sort of stuff just finds you when you’re a kid and there’s really no way to prevent it. It’s a part of life as a kid, you just have to learn to live with it. Media portraying violence isn’t necessarily showing them something they’re not already familiar with.

But I have never seen people having sex without going looking for it. Idk, that’s just my two cents.
