For example, Jones claims that there are three functions of violent media. He believes that role play gives the child a feeling of power in a world where children are powerless. He also believes that dual identity helps children with their public and private life issues. Lastly, he believes that identifying with rebellious heroes provides children with self-confidence. He claims that parents fear that their children will grow up to become "murderous thugs" but in reality shielding them from violent media weakens our children and decreases their sense of self-empowerment and self-confidence. Though Jones 's argument is very compelling. Jones 's argument has no support. The only support he has is from Dr. Melanie Moore and that quote is also only an opinion about what she believes. He has no statistical evidence to support his claim. Jones ' argument is mainly pathos. He supports his statement only from personal experiences that applies to few people like himself and his son. He gives the example of his son in an attempt to appeal to parents by showing his experience as a father and how his son turned out. The fact is that not all children function the same way. Children need a certain level of mental stability to be able to watch violence in
