Language and Taboo Essay
Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing this letter to plain about the episode 3 from the Season 13 of Modern Family where the small lady friend Lilly exercisings the f-word over and over again. This is unacceptable and inappropriate I as a parent dont destiny my child to hear the mutual language on TV. TV programs have a special potpourri of tack together on the children. This is so because they find the TV actors to be their role models. They want to wear the kindred clothes, act the same way and even talk the same way basically live up to them. Thats why the script writers of the Modern Family need to be use appropriate word to express the ideas.I fully acknowledge that the f-word was used on purpose. If there is no other way to make the show comic, but to use inappropriate words, then I am sorry. But you need to keep in mind that the show is for the whole family to watch. I am so loud about this issue because a serious problem rose up in our family after reflexion the episode. M e and my family were all sitting in our living room and watching Modern family. When Lilly dropped the f-bomb, my young son started laughing hard. As soon as the episode finished, he got up and stated What a f****ing good show it was.It was f****ing funny. I was left speechless. Me and my wife had an hour long talk with him to explain how bad the f-word is and that he can non use it in any circumstances. After listening for the hour-long worrying he turned to me and kindly asked Dad, why cant I use that bad word if Lilly can? Dear reader, do you see where I am leading to? Lilly just showed him that using the word is completely okay and that it makes people lough out of it. Lillys dad laughed at each every eon she pronounced the word. This is not right. That shouldnt have been the reaction from her dad.This made my younger son Erik think that using the curse language is natural and funny. After watching the last episode yesterday, he got even more interested in watching the next episode. He is anxiously waiting for it because there is a misfortune of learning some new nasty words. On the other side, as You can assume, I will not stand still and will not allow him to watch the next episode because it is inappropriate for his age. Apparently, one family after another will realize the impact of the show on their children and will draw a blank viewing it. I am sorry to differentiate but You will be at a loss.According to a study by a university, children exposed to profanity in the media think that such language is normal, which may reduce their inhibitions about using profanity themselves. The study has shown that the children who are exposed to the vulgar language more often are more aggressive verbally and even physically. I as a parent dont want my son to be caught by police because of assaulting someone on the road. Also, Erik can be beaten up by some elder boys if they hear him profane swearing at them. If anything of this kind happens, the responsibi lity lies on YouAccording to another research at the University of Bristol, Swearing provokes a physical stress response which will cast up the blood pressure level. If my son starts using the f-word over and over, he might have high pressure and become a physically misbalanced person. no(prenominal) of the parents would like their son or daughter to have high pressure because of watching Modern Family. Modern Family is a show which should reduce the pressure by easing the life. The whole point of the show is to show how the modern family is different from past and make jokes about it.But making a small girl swear gives a complete opposite impression. Being a parent in this situation is a very tough job. It is very important to say the right thing at that moment. If a wrong message is given, then the child may go out of control. We never faced any problems of this kind with our elder son and so it is the first time we are having such a serious and vital conversation at home. For t he future episodes please use appropriate language so that we could sit with the whole family and watch the series together again. We used to enjoy doing it.But now I am panic-stricken that we cant do it anymore due to the fear of inappropriate language. We managed to erase the f-word from the head of our young kid this time, but I am triskaidekaphobic the next time we wont be able to do it anymore. So, we would plead you to revise your scripts and remove all the inappropriate vocabulary out of it. It is a show for all of us and lets not make fun of the swear words and stay away from them. They are not needed. There are many another(prenominal) other ways to make people laugh and I am sure that your editors will be able to come up with some advance ways to make people laugh.
