Inappropriate Language In Children’s Shows In a study released March 2, 2006 from the Parents Television Council “They analyzed 443.5 hours of Saturday-morning and after-school shows for children ages 5 to 10. The results "showed 'staggering' amounts of violence, as well as verbal abuse, offensive language, antisocial attitudes and behaviors, excretory content, disrespect for adults and sexual content."( The Washington Times, March 3, 2006 By Cheryl Wetzstein) Objective: To see what is considered “bad language” in shows targeted towards children. In a study released March 2, 2006 from the Parents Television Council “They analyzed 443.5 hours of Saturday-morning and after-school shows for children ages 5 to 10. The results "showed 'staggering' amounts of violence, as well as verbal abuse, offensive language, antisocial attitudes and behaviors, excretory content, disrespect for adults and sexual content."( The Washington Times) Hypothesis: Adults will find strong language and gate words in programs targeting children inappropriate. The entertainment industry claims that if it rates a product as inappropriate for children, parent raters agree that it is inappropriate for children. Yet “Parents cannot assume the content of commercials will be consistent with the program rating or label”. (Journal of Developmental & Behavioral Pediatrics) The Parents Television Council and Nielsen Media Research study identified 565 incidents of explicit language in TV-PG (n=211) and TV-14 (n=354) shows. Thirty-seven of those incidents were bleeped “f**k” or “sh*t” or euphemisms for those words. A disturbing 27% of the incidents for “f**k” and “sh*t” occurred in TV-PG programs. 224 incidents of explicit language in TV-PG and TV-14 programming consisted of sexual slang or misogynistic language including: bit*h, pus*y, coc*, di*k, suck, screw, douche, as*, balls, slut, whore, ho, and skank. Other language children and teens were exposed to during viewing included damn, crap, hell, piss and bastard. Purpose: To evaluate what is gate words that lead to and are inappropriate words for children to hear/ use on shows targeting them. Age and content-based television ratings system in 1997 alerted viewers programs that contain violent, sexual, or profane images and words but did not end the controversy surrounding offensive content. (Kay, p. 430) Objective fulfilled by: Questioning adults after watching several afternoon/prime time kids shows. Information asked of each program: The type of show ( comedy, drama, mixed etc.) the time it came on, the television rating, and what could be potentially be considered foul/ inappropriate language and its target audience. -Adults were asked to spot the inappropriate/ gate word and to count how many times it was used. Then encouraged to comment on the severity of the word. By Amanda Herrin
