The raging debate on parent censorship in gaming
http://ezinearticles.com/?Stop-Blaming-Video-Games---What-Happened-To-Parental-Accountability?&id=501362This is a great article which gives view points on the role that gaming has in violence and obesity amongst gamers and society."As a parent or guardian, do you not have the power to turn off the console, take away the potato chips, and simply order your child to go outside and play???"Very good point"Too often in today’s society we want to push the blame elsewhere, and not accept personal responsibility for those things over which we can have a great deal, if not full, control. All this finger pointing may make us feel better about ourselves, but it does precious little to solve any real problems."What Tim Whiston is saying in this article is so very true. Ok we may want to blame other things and shift the blame elsewhere but people have got to take responsibility for themseleves and even thought people like finger point the main fact is that this finger pointing is not solving any problems and nothing will get done if society dint start acting upon it. Ok people may blame else where but parents then still let their children play games 4 hours on end. Public need to start thinking do they want their children turning into sumo's and axe waving maniacs, well if not then reduce gaming time and get outside and play. Take the game outside even at least kids will get fresh air.There have been steps by game manufacturers taken to reduce this violence and obesity even though i do not belive they are to blame for these issues.See Above
