Discussion

I appreciate this study because it proves children should develop in positive environment! Seeing self-harming images or violent media can influence a child to become that way or refrain from those habits. It’s so important for parents, teachers, psychologist, and everything that influences the child to spread positivity and teach communication skills Also, good behavior should be rewarded often.
Rewarding good behavior conditions the mind to form a behavior that is exceptional. Communication, good manners, & good behavior can take anyone far. Good job!
