Los Niños Y La Politica

0

ORLANDO, Fla. (Ivanhoe Newswire) — Lo mas probable es que los adultos ya sepan por quien van a votar en estas proximas elecciones. Pero que opinan nuestros hijos sobre los candidatos?

Desde anuncios a carteles a letreros, no hay forma de ignorar que estamos en plena campaña presidencial. Pero mientras que los anuncios buscan influir sobre los adultos, los estudios demuestran que los  niños tambien reciben el mensaje. Los expertos entrevistaron a 187 niños de kinder a quinto grado un mes antes y un mes despues de las elecciones del 2016. Determinaron que cerca de un 80 por ciento podian identificar a los candidatos y un 74 por ciento podian describir al menos una de sus posiciones  politicas. Pero tambien encontraron que el conocimiento sobre politica de los niños estaba influenciado por las ideas de sus padres, y a veces era limitado o incorrecto.

Los expertos recomiendan que los padres usen esta eleccion como una oportunidad educativa. Sugieren ver programas noticiosos apropiados para las edades de sus hijos y motivarlos a mirar mas alla de la filiacion partidista, concentrandose en vez en los temas politicos que mas les importen. Asimismo, siempre deben enfatizar la necesidad de debatir con respeto. Ayudando a entender el sistema politico en una forma positiva.

Segun los autores del estudio, los resultados muestran que los niños estan prestando atencion a la campaña electoral, y es importante darles la informacion correcta.
