Why is it that the potential prosocial benefits of watching television are outweighed by the negative consequences?
 
  a. Because children don't believe that the prosocial behaviors they see on television are real and, thus, they cannot relate to them.
  b. Because prosocial behavior is seen far less frequently than aggressive behaviors.
 c. Because prosocial behaviors are always intricately connected to aggressive behaviors in television depictions, and children cannot distinguish one from the other.
  d. Because prosocial acts in television programs are almost always conducted by older characters, and children cannot connect with those role models.
