It's a mistake thinking that violent games induce violent behavior.

He'll be fine. Hey, I used to throw rocks at my brothers when I was 11, and we had dozens of cuts and bruises. A little violence never hurt anybody...
But a lot can kill you.:rotfl: |

The only thing that I can suggest is that you might consider leaving the LifeBoats & Debris mod out of his install. The idea of leaving people to die out on the open ocean might be a bit much for him at that age.

Great posts and thank you for the ideas.....
Maybe the debris and life boat thing is a good idea....I remember when I first loaded it and then sailed slowly thru the debris field, the weather was turning worse and you could really get a sense of it. I'm not sure because it was new therefore I was aware of it more, or the mod is that good. I think both |

I think the liferafts should be left in, warfare is brutal. Like it or not sinking ships involved killing people not just the destruction of the materials of war. Sanitising these things can't be a good idea.

I'd bet the kid watches the news on TV.
You see death and destruction there on a grand scale!! And that's real stuff. Any 11 year old is smart enuff to know what is real and what is just a Game. (I raised 3 of the little Demons and at 11 years old I didn't worry about Video Games!!) The Life Boats mod shows nothing really bad. Heck! Old versions of Quake were worse! |
