In this instance it was two kids in a cop role/uniform jumping on a “car thief” from behind and pushing him to the ground. To me it looked staged and like no real hurt was done but it was an act that if it would have been done for real in the field there would have been physical injury. My child reacted to this by chiding the “cops”. So I’m wondering why we should condone this kind of play acting? I’m worried it will lead to a normalisation of violence.
