When Violence Becomes EntertainingChildren Playing Video Games

We are all bombarded by media at home, at school, at work, in the car... Media is pervasive and a team approach is clearly the best strategy to help young people be critical of what they see and hear
and help them make choices which are appropriate.

When Violence Becomes Entertaining is a forum that will provide opportunities for educators, school resource staff, trustees, parents
and community professionals focused on children's well-being to learn more about the impact of violent media on children and adolescents and effective awareness and prevention strategies.
