Getting Children to Behave Child abuse is finally a topic in the mainstream s media. Check out this Article on NPR. It is pretty disturbing given that its focus is entirely on "getting children to behave" rather than respecting their own autonomy. One of the most disturbing things though is the fact that the author claims that "there is increasing evidence that that watching or engaging in aggressive behavior excites the reward centers in the brain, giving an incentive for aggression." What is disturbing about this claim to me is that fact that it is not mentioned that if your rewards centers are firing when you are aggressive it means that you at least have sociopathic tendencies. The author tries to pass this off as acceptable behavior, to be excited by violence. Absolutely disgusting. Another take on child abuse from our Lefty friends at NPR
