Poverty is something that most people state of being poor and rich. Poverty was caused as breed crime but it’s not. Many people that lived under the line of poverty was considered as murderer and robber because of less poverty. People were thrown away because of thinking they make crime. They struggled to live and make crimes all because of living under the line of poverty. It’s not really causes of poverty. For example, people who rob, rape, and murder do so because they lack of moral self-control. It is not the poverty that cause violent crime but poor character and inequality between rich and poor.

Though these games are extremely entertaining and can get kids to settle down for a while, if not properly supervised, they can produce adverse effects. Other studies have shown that video games can be used as way to yield positive outcomes such as, good problem solving skills, cooperation in a group and the ability to flow. Although there has been psychological research on children learning through the actions of others some believe that children are automatically able to distinguish between what is just a game and what is reality. The longer they are allowed on their game system the more they become convinced that their games are real. Some researchers believe violent video games can channel the aggression of the child but the parents are to blame for what happens to the child after playing an excessive amount over a period of time. Children can become preoccupied with these violent video games which have been proven to be the cause of poor social skills, uncontrollable aggression and a false reality.
