Wake Forest University
has stepped into the world of the ridiculous research with the release
of a study that says teens who watch pro wrestling as teens are more
likely to behave more violently than other kids. The study focused only
on kids in Forsyth County, according to The Associated Press. Of
course, the researchers blamed the WWE for the violence in teens.
I
watched pro wrestling as a teen, knew it was entertainment, and went
along with my life. My family was always around in my life and I was
very close to them. I guess the researchers failed to equate family
involvement in their research. I would argue that children without
strong family influences or adult mentors are more likely to act
violently than by watching some television show.
