Describe social behavior in early childhood, including play, prosocial behavior, empathy, and the effects of the media, particularly the effects of violence in the media and violent video games

How can violent video games affect the behavior of a child?
Studies of children exposed to violent media have shown that they may become numb to violence, imitate the violence, and show more aggressive behavior. Younger children and those with emotional, behavioral or learning problems may be more influenced by violent images.
