I think we are in a interesting time, when Stephen King comes to the rescue of video games (link). Look, I think at this point we will take anyone on our side defending games.
Though I can see why scared parents are wanting to try and keep their kids safe from all the bad things in the world. Yet I don't really believe most of the parents out there really think that if little Sally plays a violent video game she will go up to be the next Jeffrey dahmer.
In my opinion it's something much more simple. I think it's more that out of all the things their children will be forced to see, this is one of the few things they can say no about and can control. Which is fine a parent should be a damn parent. Just don't be mine or anyone else's. I applaud your commitment to your child, I think that's commendable.
Just, please, why should you force the hand of the government to be all of our parents? Just take the time to learn what they are doing from time to time. Also let them know why this is something you don't think they are old enough to play or watch. You might be surprised by their intelligence.
