In October’s Essence magazine, Dr. Michael Rich, Director of CMCH, weighs in on what children learn from music lyrics.
“Children look to popular music, movies and TV shows to help them figure out who they should be.”
“Given that many children spend more time with some form of media than they do at school or with parents, they’re more likely to be influenced by the likes of Nelly or Eminem.”
