Parents who let their children watch Round 6 According to a UK parenting expert. Social psychologist Dr. Sandra Wheatley, he told daily Mail That violent soap operas can impede the “social and emotional development” of young children, encouraging them to remain silent – or even participate in the attack.
The series broke Netflix records last month, surpassing 111 million viewers, the platform’s largest audience to date.
Round 6 It shows your characters competing in a children’s killer game tournament for a cash prize awarded to the best player and sole survivor, where whoever fails the game is killed.
It can make them wonder: ‘Why is no one helping them?’ “There are clearly messages that we don’t really want our children to accept,” she explained. “This could shake the foundations of what is taught in school, which is the importance of helping each other.”
The psychiatrist’s statement came after a primary school in Belgium earlier this month warned parents of Round 6 After students are found playing dangerous games on the playground, as shown in the series.
“We must remain vigilant to stop this unhealthy and dangerous game!” Read the school’s Facebook announcement after students were seen punching themselves at the red light, green light game. In the series, the unqualified were shot at point blank range.
Wheatley believes the show is sending the wrong message about how to deal with bullying in public. We will not stand idly by if we witness injustice. If we see someone being bullied or hurt, we tell the teacher, don’t join in or walk away from them. There are clearly messages that we don’t really want our children to accept.”
