Nowadays, the younger generation often looks for their idols from the mass media. In a sense, mass media is pervasive and controls people's behavior, spirit and even smiles. For example, the TV series "How Steel was Tempered" broadcast not long ago triggered an anecdote. The general manager of the iron and steel company once received a phone call from a girl. She asked: Do you want Paul to be an idol instead of "Swallow" and "F4"? This girl has the posture of defending her idol to the death. However, the director's answer is thought-provoking. His answer is this: everyone has his own inner idol. Our parents do, and so do we. Idol is not single, it should be a gallery. We don't want Paul to replace anyone, but we want one more person in the idol gallery. What's wrong if a child sees Paul's story, inspires upward spirit, overcomes difficulties, and finally becomes a better person than "Little Swallow" and "F4"? Can this little girl really get some inspiration from it? There are not a few middle school students like this little girl now. Tragedies caused by worshipping TV or movie stars or some singers all happen around us. For example, not long ago, a girl living in the suburbs of Daqing, because her parents wouldn't let her watch Popular Garden, went to a distant city to buy a full set of CDs, and was hurt by gangsters on her way back. In another tragedy that happened not long ago, when enthusiastic Korean fans sang ode to joy in the World Cup, there was such a sad and discordant voice in Turkey: a 13-year-old fan named Dhoiffir hanged himself in a rage because he was dissatisfied with his father's rude interference in his possession of the "Mohican dry head" which was popular in this World Cup. This story deeply touched the hearts of many people. Why do these middle school students worship their idols so enthusiastically? What are the causes and roots of tragedy? From this tragedy, it also reflects a problem worthy of profound social reflection. How should we treat the "idol worship complex" of young people?
Let's discuss the causes and solutions of things together. In the past, the heroes we created were all perfect, and most teenagers sneered at them because those heroic images were too perfect and unreasonable. Most adolescent boys and girls have rebellious psychology. From the psychological point of view, idolization is a psychological phenomenon in which teenagers' physical and mental development is still immature. It is like a "double-edged sword", which has both advantages and disadvantages for the growth of teenagers. On the positive side, what kind of star to pursue reflects the unclear positioning of teenagers' ideal image in the future. As we all know, in film and television dramas, characters are often portrayed beautifully, often exaggerated or rendered perfectly. Often these are mostly impossible in real life, and sometimes the reality is often disappointing, but the idols created in film and television dramas will not. They are not only handsome and elegant in appearance, but also perfectly shaped in character. They are gentle, generous, considerate and at the same time at home. These images are just some ideal orientations of adolescence for future life. This caters to the tastes of teenagers. Sometimes the reality can't satisfy them, which will make them feel disappointed or depressed. Sometimes they can only seek comfort from these TV dramas. In adolescence, the correct outlook on life, values and world outlook has not yet been formed. During this period, their views on things are necessarily extreme and incorrect, so they will indiscriminately accept what is created in film and television dramas, which will inevitably lead to the fanatical pursuit of idols in film and television dramas. At the same time, parents also regard this as a scourge and generally interfere. Parents generally believe that idolization will affect their studies, cause harm to students and be rudely prohibited. We all know that adolescence has a strong rebellious attitude, and I will do anything your parents forbid. This deepened their blind obedience to idolization psychology. In the process of idolization. Most teenagers are also influenced by herd mentality. I think what you said is good, and everyone accepts it indiscriminately. In this way, the idolized team will inevitably grow. In addition to the above reasons, the media's rendering and contrast is also a very important factor for middle school students to blindly worship stars. The media are also misleading teenagers when making and promoting idol stars. In a word, idolization behavior has some psychological factors of teenagers themselves, as well as some social factors that cannot be ignored.
In fact, we talked too much about the negative effects of idolization, and we all know that everything has two sides. We should also see the positive role and influence of idolatry. In fact, there are many examples of people who are inspired by the idol worship complex and embark on the road to success. As we all know, some successful movie stars are successful because they are constantly inspired by idols. As we all know, Faye Wong is now a famous artist in Asia. Her idol is Teresa Teng, who was once popular in Asia and had great influence in the world Chinese music scene. Faye Wong's success today has something to do with her "idol worship complex". As we all know, Jet Li is now quite influential in the international film industry. He also took Bruce Lee, the elder who brought China Kung Fu to Hollywood and became famous all over the world, as his idol and determined to be like him. I did what Jet Li did. In addition, NBA superstar Kobe regarded Jordan as his idol since he was a child, dreaming of becoming a basketball star one day and being able to compete with Jordan. Under the correct guidance and encouragement of his family and teachers, this hazy "idol worship complex" has played a great role in promoting him, making him train his skills hard since he was a child, and finally his dream came true, becoming a star as famous as O 'Neill in the new generation of NBA. I think there are not a few stars who have embarked on the road to success because of idol complex. Of course, we already know a lot about the negative effects of idolatry. Some teenagers should have lost their lives because of idolization, and some teenagers have embarked on the road of crime because of the influence of some negative idol images. Like "gangsters" and "mafia bosses" in Hong Kong and Taiwan or some foreign movies, they take their idols and imitate their behavior consciously or unconsciously. Middle school students have strong imitation ability. If they don't pay attention to timely guidance and guidance, they are likely to have unhealthy personality or abnormal psychology.
The urgent task is to guide students' idol complex to develop in a healthy and positive direction. We understand the influence of idolatry from two aspects. Simple rudeness will only have the opposite effect. Only by adopting an attitude of approval and opposition can we correctly guide idolization. Our parents and teachers should treat and deal with this problem with a peaceful mind. For example, tell more about the hard struggle history of some stars after their birth, and how they worked hard to get these seemingly brilliant achievements and lives. Tell them that learning is their main task at this stage, and tell them that if they waste a lot of time on idolization, it will be bad for their future. If they want to succeed like that, they must work hard now. And tell them that in fact, the stars of Wei are more like ordinary people, but some particularity of their profession makes them look so perfect or tall. In the eyes of students, their idol status is high, and rough pressure will only cause some unimaginable adverse consequences. Of course, in addition to parents and teachers, all aspects of our society are helping to solve this problem together. In particular, the media should not make some unhealthy and immoral TV dramas, but should make more educational TV dramas that can evolve students' minds. This will play a very positive role in improving our whole social atmosphere and promoting the development of the whole society. Teenagers are the new force and builders of our future society, and it is our whole society's business to actively and correctly guide teenagers' idol complex.
The power of example is infinite. We should make full use of the positive influence of idolatry to guide teenagers and strive to overcome the negative influence of idolatry. Let the students get out of the narrow pursuit of film and television stars and sports stars and chase our science and technology stars and outstanding talents from all walks of life. These examples can motivate them to study hard and better understand the significance and importance of learning. Only in this way can they live a fuller and more energetic life.
Let the idolization tragedy that happened yesterday not be staged again, and let our young students get out of the psychological misunderstanding of idolization, and our society will have more hope.
Correctly understand the phenomenon of idolization, correctly guide the idol complex, and let our middle school students become the pillars and dazzling stars of building the country tomorrow!
