Stupidity of parents change reality..

Do your job as a parent and you wont have this problem. It shouldn't be the government doing the job that parents in the olden days did. I know if I had wanted a game like the ones they find mature, they'd have done some research about the game, and then told me ok or no. If you, as a parent, can't do your job, you shouldn't be criticizing these games. This should be the parents job and they should be held accountable for letting their kids play these games, they are their damn parents afterall.

I'm only 29 but damn man, don't blame the games, blame the parents who don't supervise their children like they used to. They don't discipline their kids anymore because of the fear of having them taken away. When I was a kid, I used to get my hide tanned when I was bad, now a days you do that someone complains child abuse. If it's anything, it's the lack of discipline for kids, or lack thereof, these days. Just last night I was at the grocery store with my wife, the kid in front of us with his mom started throwing a tantrum, in my day, had i done that, good lord mom would have beat me right then and there, instead this mom simply asked him to be good, said they were going home, which made it worse. If parents could spank their children without the fear of being reprimanded by police, alot of these things would change.

If you believe it's the games causing it, then you might want to bury your head a little farther into the ground.
