Is there too much violence in soaps?

From Coronation Street to teen drama Hollyoaks, violent storylines have become the norm. Do you think the writers have gone too far and there is now too much violence in soaps? Have your say here...

    Yes. We need more humour in the soaps. Some children who come from violent homes may think it is the norm when they see violence on the telly.

    If the soaps portray real life, then I'm a monkey's uncle. What a load of rubbish these programmes are.The people are arrogant, insulting, aggressive, and that's just the children. And they are a very bad example to the young kids today.
