Can someone please write a concluding paragraph for this essay based on what I already have?Negative Effects of Reality TV on Teenagers
By Angel Maroone

Reality television can have a negative impact upon teenagers and their ways of thinking. Regular reality TV viewers differ dramatically from their non-viewing peers in several aspects. These shows set a new, nearly impossible standard for what the “average” person should look like. Not to mention, reality TV presents and largely promotes negative behavior, giving viewers a misconception of acceptable behavior. Some of these shows may not be negative influences, but the majority of them are.
Regular reality TV viewers differ dramatically from their non-viewing peers in their expectations of peer relationships, their overall self-image, and their understanding of how the world works. These regular viewers expect and accept a higher level of aggression, drama, and bullying. Studies show that 73% of regular female viewers think these shows “make people think that fighting is a normal part of a romantic relationship,” and 70% think they “make people think its okay to treat others badly.” Regarding boys, regular reality TV viewers are more likely than non-viewers to say “girls often have to compete for a guy’s attention” (74% vs. 63%). They also admit they are happier when they are dating someone (49% vs. 28%).
Teenagers have a pliable mind and self esteem. Shows such as Extreme Makeover and America’s Next Top Model depict and encourage a perfect body image. They place value on unrealistic beauty standards. The Girl Scouts Research Institute’s studies found that girls who view reality TV regularly are more focused on the value of physical appearance. More than a third (38%) thinks that a girl’s value is based on how she looks. They would rather be recognized for their outer beauty than their inner beauty. These conceptions were surely impacted by the bad morals that reality TV presents and upholds. Everyone, especially impressionable teenagers, should be taught to embrace individuality and their own unique qualities.
With reality TV being so popular, teens are getting exposed to things like sex, drugs, violence, and vulgar language at younger and younger ages. Shows such as Jersey Shore, Bad Girls Club, and the Real Housewives series expose young viewers to drinking, drugs, sex, fighting, etc. They make these behaviors seem fun and acceptable. In all actuality, these actions usually lead to turmoil. Producers can’t expect teens not to follow these examples.

Answer 1

Answer:

Producers, directors, and everybody working on the set should take a moment to think about what they are really putting on TV. Thanks to reality TV elementary school kids are now learning about sex, violence and vulgar language, is this really what we want for this world? A world where all of this is "normal"? No! We can not blame our kids and teenagers for watching this type of show, it's impossible not to! There is a 50/50 chance that when a child turns on the TV they will watch a reality TV show, is this really what we want?

Hope this helps! If not, Sorry! I'm only in 8th grade sooo.... yeah
