Well, what you don't do is tell a video game developer to change how they're making their games because people can't be bothered to raise their kids properly. Blizzard's job isn't to raise children and it is patently unfair to place any expectation on them to raise children in any way, shape or form. For better or for worse, we as a society have decided not to hold parents very accountable for the way in which they raise their children. If there's no harmful abuse or negligence, you pretty much are free to do with your children as you please. It is a miserable hypocracy to expect a video game company to be responsible for bringing up kids with "decent" life lessons when we don't even hold parents to that standard. If I personally know kids who are being treated like that of course *I* would try to do something to help. I cannot, however, condone a societal requirement that the company be expected to change their business practices in order to conform to such a standard.
Do you really want any and all media to be made with the contingency that it teaches appropriate life lessons in the event that negligent parents choose to use it to raise their children? I sure don't.
