Any Psychologist here?

I answered a question and earned a little, but asker didn't rate my answer, I wonder if my viewpoint is relevant?

the topic was movie violence in relation to classical conditioning,

A child exhibits a certain behavior like fear when presented a certain stimulus over and over again. The mind will be conditioned to respond to the stimulus when he experiences it repeatedly. Hence, behavior can be learned. A child might associate darkness as scary or dangerous after watching movies that depicts violence which always occurs at nighttime.

Hence the concepts made by psychologists imply that behavior can be learned and conditioned.

Therapy is not will power, giving in to others direction is not constructive in our own direction.

I say that as my parents divorced when i was 4 ,the Therapy that was forced upon me made me feel inferior to my classmates, it wasnt until i was in my late 20's that i let go of what therapy installed in my mind, and ive thrived ever since, by simply being who i am, not what others want me to be.
