IN response to the report 'Shop siege man fought off two men and a dog' (September 17), don't you think acts of violence are emulated after seeing football heroes such as Wayne Rooney acting as he does on TV in front of millions, including young children?
Then young people get the wrong idea of how to behave.
They should act like responsible adults.
What is imprinted on a child's mind at a young age can stay with them throughout their lives and can sometimes be acted out, or be brought out of them, in situations in their lives that may occur along the line.
