NAPW COMPLAINTS OF HARMFUL EFFECTS ON CHILDREN

Among many manufactures it is important before launching the product to a market research in order to avoid complaints. This entails weeks of rigorous activities trying to identify the target market and the age and also the potential buyers. Sports just like the products observe this rule as there is no way they can be viable if there are no fans buying the tickets and so on. Some sports such as professional wrestling have many royal followers with other following certain wrestlers fanatically. Most professional wrestling matches are not censored and the content aired in many times is vulgar.

Most promoters on the other hand make most of the matches accessible even to children which at the end of the day end up exposing kids to the adult lives at such an early age. The most highlighted of all the NAPW complaints is that, in female professional wrestling (professional women) the scenes aired are more sexual than wrestling. This again has led to the erosion of morals among the children watching these matches.  The divas as they are called in pro wrestling are only in their bras and panties. These scenes to young children may have a great impact in their future lives and the way they relate to people of the opposite sex. This also raises the question of ethics and whether the sport does have a code of ethics.

Mostly NAPW targets males from the age of 18 but this does not mean that kids from age 2 do not target the material. The fact that children can access it as games or just from viewing it live leaves them vulnerable in a world where sex sells and vulgarity is regarded as being cool. It is important to keep in mind also that at these young age children are developing cognitively physically and so on.

Most of the things they watch from the TV and what the NAPW reviews say are stored in their minds and they might use them at later stages in their lives. The nature of professional wrestling as we know it is violent and in many occasions the wrestlers are always embroiled in personal feuds. Their attitude too leaves the young ones vulnerable as they want to emulate them.
