Some stuff that bothers me
Something that bothers me is how parents do not pay attention to the ratings used on certain games. I know that the game Grand Theft Auto is something that even I do not play. After I played the San Andreas installment I quickly took it back and never plan on buying another game in that series. The level of profanity used in that game is ridiculous. Also the violence and sexual references within the game were offensive. Yet I hear kids that are in 5th or 6th grade talk about this game and how cool it is and these kids come from wonderful Christian families.
I believe this to be complete ignorance. Video Games used to be harmless and the only thing a parent had to worry about was their child playing them too much. Now games are extremely violent and perverse. Obviously not every game, but many are. Just something I think parents need to look out for.
