Have you ever played your favorite song on the radio and added a beep or a random word to every swear word? For example: "You go to the club and ask, 'What's going on?' I got a loud (beep).' I'm so excited for some (bleeps) from the thrift store." It tends to get very annoying. So the question is: should radio stations censor songs? Most parents will say yes. They don't want their children to hear those words. I have respect for these parents. Except my opinion is different. I think radio stations shouldn't censor songs, but they should have warnings. There are a couple of different ways I can think of for radio stations to not censor songs without parents worrying about their kids hearing the swear words. One of which is to put a warning before inappropriate songs. Before a bad song is played, the radio station should insert a voice recording that says, "Parental discretion advised." Or something like that. Sometimes on Kiss 95.7 people at the station will announce a song before it plays. When they do this before a bad song they might simply say, “This song contains inappropriate language. Parental discretion is advised. Some parents will still be against my argument. Today, children have access to the radio without the presence of their parents. I understand that they could ignore the warning and listen to the song anyway. However, I don't see any harm in a child listening to a bad song if they know they shouldn't go out and use that kind of language. I think it partly has to do with how a child is raised. Another way I can think of for radio stations to not censor music is to have certain stations play uncensored music. Just like on television, when some channels can say inappropriate words that other stations cannot say. Y...... middle of paper....... My three year old even saw me give birth. LOL!" So all parents really have their own opinions about censorship. It is also true that children will learn inappropriate language somewhere. I think it is better if their parents let them listen to it and explain the meaning. Or at least tell them which is a dirty word and if they say it they might get in trouble. I don't know if this will ever be a valid topic. However, I know there are other topics out there that I'm sure parents should be more concerned about of marijuana. If any topic ever comes to a conclusion, it will never be truly closed. People will always have different opinions on what they want for themselves and their families. I think that whatever your opinion is on censorship, you should respect it in the best possible way.
