Do you think the violence of video games actually have effect on real life among teens? Should there be a limit. It doe's appear to me that kids today are growing up with less respect for life. Do you think all the violence in games has desensitized the young mindset.

My 13 year old was playing some game a friend brought over, car running over people, cops, shooting anything, character calling women itches and ho's and I told the kid not to bring it back....course I'm sure he plays games like this at his friends house, but least want to set an example. Do you set limits with your kids?

Do we set limits? Yes we do, I think it our responsibility as parents to share right from wrong with our children. Shooting cops running down people whether it be in thought or action is just plain wrong. There are better things to do in life than sit in front of a monitor hacking of limbs for points.

My brother is a cop, the last thing I would want anyone to think is they can get away with killing one even if it's just a game.

And no they are not little innocent saints hidden from the world. Nope, we like you are at ground zero and know it and have just as much trouble with youth as anyone else. Just like my parents did.
