I am going to responding to Ethan Gilsdorf’s article, Violent Video Games Are Good for You. I find alot of useful information on this article, supporting my research.

          Ethan Gilsdorf’s, “Violent Video Games Are Good for You”, claims that many people don’t get the positive, invisible impact of video games. Gilsdorf thinks that parents are blind with the actual scenes, and that leads them to an unfair conclusion, which is video games are responsible for minors bad behavior and violence. Many justices are trying to block video games, at least for those under 18 years old. Gilsdorf recalls some sayings that people were believe in, in the late 19th century, “even the widespread use of the telephone was deemed a social threat. The telephone would encourage unhealthy gossip, critics said.” Gilsdrof said. The author supports his claims with hard proof, according to Lawrence Kutner and Cheryl K. Olson, founders of the Center for Mental Health and Media and members of the psychiatry faculty at Harvard Medical School, as video game usage has highly increased in the past two decades, the rate of juvenile crime has actually fallen. Gilsdorf wrote the article in informal language, and some sarcasm in the last few sentences to grab normal people attention.
