Visit the blog here: https://edybovaunypviewofwomen.blogspot.com

 

I would recommend you this blog, because you find so many underestimated issues here, which are not portrayed in media that much. For example, the content about missing women in Mexico is not emphasized enough in media. And Eliška tried to inform the society about issues related to women and how they are portrayed in media. Further, the image of women showed in media can influenced their well-being. We can see only models and their ideal, perfect bodies in the media and thus, girls then doubt about their bodies and lose confidence. So, if you are interested in the way, how women are shown in media and what impact it can have on them, you should definitely visit Eliška’s blog, because you can find many useful information here.

Visit the blog here:  https://effectsofmediaonbodyimage.blogspot.com

 

Lia’s blog is dealing with body image and how is that showed in the media. It is quite similar to Eliška’s topic because both are specialized on girls and women at first place. But Lia mentioned a story of a boy, Christopher Dawley, who committed a suicide due to the social media and its content. And I think, that it is very important to emphasize, that boys and men suffer too and that there is a pressure on them as well, which cannot be forgotten. Also, there are great sources for further research. Lia put here links and Instagram profiles of her favorite models, which is very interesting to look at and see their posts.

All platforms, which deals with the influence of social media on teenage behavior tell us more about the negative side and aspects.

And of course, that this issue related with media and society is very serious matter, because many teenagers can be influenced negatively through social media. So, it is important to mention the negative side of social media, which is very well explained in the blog as well. 

 

Jan Schwarz – Violence in the media of Sport 

 

Visit the blog here: https://violencesportsvideogamesjs.blogspot.com

 

This blog is focused on violence of media of sport, and I think that not so many blogs are interested in this issue, although it is very important. So, I would like to highly recommend you to read this blog, because everyone should be informed about that. Maybe, it may not seem that it relates to my topic of blog at first place, but it is. I am focusing on the impact of media on children, and if children see violence in media in young age, they tend to be aggressive in the future than the children, who did not see violence in media regularly. Many young children, especially boys have heroes among athletes and if they are violent, and the society tolerate it, then the consequences can be fatal. If children see it as a normal thing, they would do it the same in order to become the same as their heroes. Also, check the sources for further research, they are very interesting!

If you are interested in fashion, you should definitely visit this blog! Anastaziia emphasized the importance of supporting small producers and their business related to fashion. She also explained, how fashion is connected to social media and how social media influence it. Specifically, nowadays influencers are very popular among teenagers, they follow them on Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube. So, if the influencers have cooperation with some fashion companies and propagate their products on social media, then the products are sold much more often that the ones, which are not shown on social media by influencers. So, I would definitely recommend you to read this blog, because for me it was very interesting to learn new things about fashion and its connection to media, and I believe, that it will very interesting and educative for you as well.

WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY I

  A child psychologist Kate Eshleman, PsyD, talks about the dangers, which social media can bring to children, how we suppose to talk to children, how we should keep them safe, and how to explain, that they should not take everything much seriously on the social media.     The majority of social media are conditioned by an age limit, usually 13 years. But currently, 33% of children between the age 7 to 9 have at least one social media app, and 50% of children between the age 10 to 12 use at least one social media platform. Dr. Eshleman says: “Social media makes it easy to compare oneself to another,”  (Pediatrics, 2021)  the she continues with: “most people put on social media what they want to see.

MY VIEW

According to World Health Organization (WTO) children should spend only 1 hour and less on digital media per day. However, the statistics showed, that average pre-school child spend more than 2 hours per day on digital media.  (Poulain, 2021)  Although, it may seem, that media influence only children’s physical health because if they spend the time with media, they usually sit in front of computer or with their phone on sofa and do not move. The mental health issues are very serious as well. These problems can then occur especially in school, because the children suffer from hyperactivity, conduct problems, and inattention. Further, the overuse of media can influence children’s ability to communicate.  (Poulain, 2021)  This essay will focus on 3 main issues connected with children and media – violence in media and its impact on children, food advertisements and its impact on children’s health, and last but not least, on cyberbullying, which can have very dangerous an...
