Abstract: | There is growing concern regarding the amount and type of violence that young children are exposed to on a daily basis. Through
media, popular toys and video games violent images are consistently present in children’s lives starting at a very young age.
This paper discusses (a) the growing presence of young children’s exposure to media violence, (b) the influence of media violence
on early childhood development and well-being, (c) the impact of media violence on young children with disabilities, and (d)
recommendations for addressing this national dilemma within the context of family-professional partnerships. A list of related
web resources is also included. |
