Harry Potter, Game of Thrones e.tc Can Damage a Child's Brain

A United Kingdom headmaster, Gaeme  Whiting has publicly said that movies like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Hunger games and other epic adventure movies are dangerous to a child's brain.

Whiting said
“Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, The Hunger Games, and Terry Pratchett, to mention only a few of the modern world’s ‘must-haves… can be bought without a special licence, and can damage the sensitive subconscious brains of young children, many of whom may be added to the current statistics of mentally ill young children,” Whiting wrote in a blog post on the Acorn School website where he is a headmaster.

He based his opinion on the fact that these books contain deeply insensitive and addictive material which he claimed could encourage difficult behaviour in children.

He dismissed them as dark, demonic literature, “sprinkled with ideas of magic, of control and of ghostly and frightening stories.”

However, he said that the adult mind can process the materials displayed that is displayed.
