In today's society, celebrities are seen regularly on the front covers of newspapers, magazines, and on television shows. As a prominence in the public the celebrities must understand what a crucial part they play on kids and young adult’s life. It is their responsibility to make sure they are a pleasing choice for parents to be seen as a role model for their kids. I strongly believe celebrities should be obliged enough to be an admirable choice of a role model because, kids spend most of their time on television and internet to follow them. If the celebrities live a wild life their reputation in the public's mind will be poor, and the celebrities will be viewed as a horrible choice of role models for the youngsters. In addition, it’s important to be a good role model because young kids are easily tempted, and if they find their most favorite person smoking they too will want to spoke. First of all, with information about a celebrity within kid's fingertip, youngster is most likely to follow them rather than view either their friends or parents as role models. More than half of the celebrities in this world live a wild life to receive attention and popularity from the media. Apart from that, youngster tends to follow fashion from their favorite model. That means the kids tends to believe they have to be thin, blonde and wear the latest designer clothes in order to maintain their coolness in public. Some may say that there are other celebrities who do important things in society to educate others well of what is wrong and right. However, when the society looks at the superstars they are in all likelihood to picture the information the media have presented. This means that public picture more Disney stars who are supposed to be good kids turning bad and awful. Celebrities like Britney Spears who was caught on tape wrecking a car because of reasons that could have been solved peacefully are horrible influences on kids. When others are trying hard to teach

Celebrities alone embody the means to win over countless of hearts with their charismatic winsome looks or unique characteristic skills.

    After all, many of these ''modern heroes'' do not seem suitable role models for the young. Some unsuitable role models many tend to look up to is singing sensation KE$HA. Her music video for her smash hit Tik Tok, seemed to encourage rebelliousness, as well as alcoholism. This video also glorifies a decadent lifestyle, which makes it a source of influence to many teenage viewers. This song also drew a lot of criticism when this video featured several 12-year-old girls carrying beer bottles in front of the camera. Hence, these ‘modern heroes deem to be undesirable role models for the pre-adolescents. Other unsuitable personalities include Lindsay Lohan, who led a party-girl lifestyle, abused drugs and was admitted to rehabilitation facilities several times. She also suffered from bulimia, resulting in a rapid loss of weight. Lindsay Lohan is also not a good role model for pre-pubescent girls as her party-girl lifestyle might influence teenagers to neglect their studies, and instead spend their time partying. Both KE$HA and Lindsay Lohan promote very unhealthy lifestyles and also instills the wrong values in young…

    Behaviourism is a theory of psychology that was dominant between 1920s and 1950s. It is a theory of learning that is concerned about behaviour that can be observed and measured scientifically rather than being shaped by innate mental states such as thinking, knowing, feeling and biological processes such as hormones. Two major influences on behavioural psychology today are B.F. Skinner and Albert Bandura. Skinner's theory of learning was called "Operant Conditioning" or sometimes known as instrumental conditioning and it is basically a method of learning that uses rewards and punishments to shape or change behaviour by the use if positive or negative reinforcement. Every type of behaviour or action produces a consequence.…

    In the article Parenting: The Lost Art, Kay Hymowitz discusses the recent trend in this youth idolizing culture, where the lines between parent and friend are blurred. Without those clear distinctions, “entertainment companies” and peers, rather than parents, are setting the standards for one another without a framework of what is normal or acceptable behavior. The media and so called "entertainment companies" continually abuse power by routinely and aggressively marketing children, many of todays advertising and media programming exhibit immoral and inappropriate behavior that manipulates children and leaves them vulnerable to exploitation.…

    Often, people fail to remember that celebrities are just humans like everyone else. Fans put celebrities on a pedestal, idolizing them perhaps realizing it or not realizing it. If a favored celebrity makes a decision, children all across America may feel the need to make the same decision, regardless if it is morally a good or bad idea.75% of young adults idolize celebrities and consider them role models (Shaw et al. 577). This is an issue due to the heavy amount of influence a celebrity’s decision may bring to young viewers and that can impact young viewers. For example, research found that listening to explicit music can bring abrasive and harsh actions. Likewise, being consumed with a celebrity and their actions can cause people to alter and change their own behavior to resemble the celebrity more accurately (Shaw et al. 576). Celebrity obsession can cause a young admirer to make negative behavior decisions such as drug abuse or developing an eating disorder.…

    Persuasive Essay

    Persuasive Essay : Many people would be happy and satisfied if they were in a relationship with money and fame. Doesn't that seem like the perfect life? Everyone begins to think that in life that's all that matters, and that's all they need, nothing could be better. Society dictates our morals, feelings, the way we do things and try's to tell us certain things we do are wrong and we need to do them the way they feel necessary. Our generations to come will have no clue what the meaning of a true, harmonious, happy life. They begin to think that not telling the truth is ok , and eventually get so use to it that even if they could hear the truth they wouldn't want to. It becomes part of their daily life. Clearly our society, or government has their own sneaky, conniving ways to try and brain wash everyone. Due to the problem that most people would rather have love, money, and fame, it's very rare to find some one who doesn't have any of that but is satisfied with only knowing the truth. People look up to celebrities, but they do not set good examples or try to be role models. In proposing a solution to the problem of adhering to the actions of celebrities, the analysis relates to Henry David Thoreau's belief in individuality as he talked about in his book Walden. Who is your hero? Usually the answer to this question, at least for many of us, involves a famous actor or singer, a celebrity. The celebrities of the world are the wealthiest, most beautiful and most stylish individuals to walk upon the planet. These icons, however, seem to have no moral dilemma whatsoever with corrupting the public. They are role models to the public, just as parents are role models to their children. Children mirror the actions of their parents, as does society the actions of celebrities. Suddenly, few people in the world are content because they do not live the same lifestyle as Madonna or Michael Jordan. Henry David Thoreau offers solutions in his work, Walden, to the constant societal…
