i know some tv shows and video games arent ideal for kids but isnt it the parents fault for letting thier kids watch or play in the first place? tv shows now have ratings and so do video games. ive heard of many cases where parents buy thier kids games like grand theft auto then try to sue or complain to the store or game company how violent or graphic thier product is. but the game CLEARLY SAYS "M" for mature. so thats like letting your kids watch a rated R movie. so isnt it the parents responsibility? and you cant buy M rated games unless your 18 and over. i tried buying a game rated M (im 21) and the store asked me for ID...so the parents are providing the kids with "bad" games. so shouldnt parents stop blaming others for thier stupid judgment?

TOTALLY AGREE. its the parent's reponsibility. kids should not be playing games that are rated M or overly violent without parent supervision and guidance.

its not like the kids are buying the games. the parents are! and if the kids ARE buying the games, then the parents really need to be on their case a little more, and not be so passive and blame others for their neglect

they should stop blaming video games and start looking at what the parents have done. where are they when they are buying the so called violent games and watching the violent shows i think it is the childs mind that latches on to such violent games and tv shows not the content

I totally agree. That is the purpose of the rating system. And parents also complain, "My kid will play these games at their friend's house." Well, my advise to them is to ask their child's friend's parents what games they have, to make sure their kids don't play 'M' rated games.

ultimatly if your kid is under 17 it's the parent's decision on weather or not to let their kid play the game. So if they buy it they shouldn't complain. I personally love violent games. They're the best.

Parents like to pass on the blame to someone who is not them.

"hey, let's blame the video game because our son is violent"

How about take some responsibility for how your son or daughter behave?
