The Sex, Violence, and Junk Food Diet

The media diet that today’s children are fed is more sexualized, violent, and laden with junk food advertising than ever before. Not surprisingly, exposure to such media leads to serious problems for kids, including aggressive behavior, obesity, and media addiction. Children’s media use also plays a role in other concerns, including sexualized behavior, eating disorders, and learning problems.

The Sex, Violence, and Junk Food Diet is a practical media guide for parents from an authority on children’s media matters. It is written in a personal style by a child psychologist who sees the negative impact of media on kids everyday in his practice.

Using the compelling stories of real children affected by media, The Sex, Violence, and Junk Food Diet provides useful solutions for families who face hurdles in their efforts to protect children from harmful media.
