Television and its messages

To young children television does not really have an impact, most dont really understand whats going on. As for teenagers all the reality shows, music videos, and comedy, has a horrible effect on teenagers, It sends the wrong message out no matter what you watch. Peer pressure is something almost every teenager goes through, if they see something on the televison and they see these celebrities doing something, their going to think its cool and t to try because "everyones doing it" so they THINK. Most teens feel like they need to be apart of the "IN" crowd and will do anything to fit in. Its hard to avoid these type of interactions because television is everywhere, so easy to get acces to. For the most part television has a very strong impact on todays society especially teens, but not in a good way.

The Survivors

Hearing these people stories, is a shock. Learning about the Holocaust, the concentration camps and the toture these people had to go through was difficult to hear about, but someone telling their own story about their experiences and the things they went through was very sad. I could not imagine having to live like that. Living in fear not knowing what will happen to you or what horrible task or thing you'd hav to experience next. Being apart from your family all that time, having to wonder if there ok, whether they are alive or not! I would not be able to do it. I would not want to even try to put myself in their shoes or think about how it was to live during this time, the survivors of the Holocaust are very courageous and should be praised for all they have been through and seen.
