Question

can someone help me edit this to make it sound better and longer.
Kids 10 years ago played ping pong, Ataris, and dolls. The children of today play with nerfs guns, toy guns that actually look like real guns. Violent video games, television shows, and movies ar the reason kid aspire to use guns and be criminals. They see a bad guy with a gun and automatically want to be just like them. Children should remain ignorant about guns. Guns are something that children should not be brought up on.
