Oh boy, here we go again... [quote]1)It causes traumatic situations. I for one do not want my child flinching and screaming away every time they see somebody holding a sword. [/quote] This isn't a horror game, nothing is really that scary or traumatic to kids in Destiny. [quote]2) It causes anti-social instincts to grow.[/quote] Oh, you mean the anti-social behavior of playing games with people? Your logic is invalid. [quote]3) It teaches them bad words.[/quote] So what? That doesn't mean they have to use them. [quote]Children are getting angrier because of this game.[/quote] Just this game? Also kids release their anger here, instead of in real life. [quote]4) My final reason is that it causes violence.[/quote] Those cases were kids who had very stressful home lives. Video games [b]may[/b] add to the stress, but not cause it. [quote]That anger and frustration would lead to much property being desecrated[/quote] I would worry about what is going on with the kid and help them, rather than worrying about property damage. Get your priorities straight. [quote]Mailbox Baseball Laser Tag TPing Houses Egging Cars Multiple holes in the wall from being punched.[/quote] You do know this happened before video games too, right? And laser tag is a fun game to play with your friends, it isn't harmful to anyone. (Unless you look directly at the laser) Congratulations CommManagerABYZ! You have been identified as an overprotective parent! There is nothing wrong with that, but please stop trying to change the world of video games to suit your needs, thank you.
