Parents Get you Sh!t together!!!

Will all the talk in the news concerning GTA IV as a cop killer simulator, a prostitution ring and apparently a chainsaw weilding massacre that allows one to tear a human to shreds is killing th youth of America. Well as an American citizen, a gamer as well as a teen not so long ago I for one am appaled at all this nonsense. It boils down to the parents taking responsibility for what their son or daughter is doing. I remember being about 5 or 6 and playing DOOM and wolfenstien on the pc. I never had that urge to go pick up a gun and kill someone or think about killing someone or even act violent. I had this thing called common sense that allowed me to tell myself its just a game its not real. Even my parents were ok with what I played I was never censored as a kid from a lot of things. Now I wasnt allowed all freedoms I still had to live by rules the typical kid stuff. But for video games I had no limit. If my parents felt something was a little too bad we discussed it like people should and I learned about whys oemthign was wrong or why something was the way it was. This will be the same teachings I pass onto my children cause I want them to be gamers as well and support a media that I find will only get bigger and better as they grow. Parents need to step up and take the blame for the lack of what they are doing. If you dont feel your child should play thise game then sit them down and tell them why it is inapprpriate and explain to them why it isnt something that they want them to play as of now but in a little while it will be ok. This jump up to an AO rating is absurd and until we get people who will think clearly and go OH this is a Mature game this is for adults, since a vast majority of gamers today are about 19 - 33 years of age, We will never be able to have freedom of media. The censoring will start happening more and more as well as new inventive ideas being shot down because companies will want to play it safe instead of giving it a shot. So parents START PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT THE FUCK IT IS THAT YOUR KIDS ARE DOING! They have magazines and oh yea this fucking thing called the internet to allow you to do research. I can look up every game out on the market in seconds and learn all about it, why can you take that time out for your children. It shows how much you really care!
