Violent Video Games
All of the new violent video games that kids are playing are going to lead them to a life if crime. for example grand theft auto, true crimes streets of L.A., and all of the other games that let you run around and kill whoever you want whenever you want are way to violent and graphic for young kids. Parents shouldn't let their kids play these games until they are 13 or 14 because little kids might go out and actually do what they seen on the video game. For example my 8 year old cousin loves playing these types of games. But one day when I was in a car with him and my uncle he seen some people walking down the street and told my uncle to run them over with the car like he does on grand theft auto. Now I play grand theft auto a lot and I have beaten all of them except the new ones but I don’t go around doing what I see in the video games. Its because I am older than him and I know better because I know what will happen if I did do that stuff in real life but he’s young and he hasn’t learned what will happen if you do that stuff such as killing people and stealing things. I think that parents should teach their kids what will happen to them if the steal things or kill people so that they don’t grow up to be some sort of cereal killer or a robber so that they can live a normal and happy life. I know that it’s sort of exaggerating a lot but it is very possible that these games could cause these problems. Parents could also just wait until their older to let them play these violent video games. For additional information go to http://www.apa.org/releases/videogames.html
