as ong as you reinforce that video games are not real then nothing will come of it. Saying i stole this car because of gta is an easy copout. where as saying i stole this because i was high or pissed off at my parents

i play video games and i have since 8bit nintendo. i was about maybe 5 or 6. the thing is everygamehas violence in it.....what about supermario brothers? did we forget that we kill things in that
1.supermario brothers
2.donkey kong
3.duck hunt
4.solar jetman
5.willow
6.wwf wresteling
7.back to the future
(keep in mind this is only 8bit nintendo)

point in case i was playing violent games since i was 5 or 6 and i didnt kill anyone, haven stolen a car... or shot anyone. Everyperson \ child is different, 90% can tell the difference between videogames and realife... its that 10% that screw it up for the rest of us.

and if i was hit by a random snowball i would probably say i would find them and kill em. does that mean i will??? no

and when you give kidsa survey they arnt themselves they answer differently

edit: this reminds me of when my girlfriend and i were trying to teach her 4 year old nephew how to play halo, and all he did was stand there and look around.

Has he killed anyone? No
he does say my daddy will shoot it with his shotgun.... but he has been saying that since he had nightmares and his dad told him if he saw a monster under the bed he would shoot it.

does he know the difference between right and wrong? yes.
