Disagree

I disagree with the article and the psychologist we read because not all games are the same. He stated that most games teach kids to reject old values and the world is dark and dangerous, however, most games does not like that. Most games teach kids to think proactive, and to think how to make the world better not the world is a bad place. In addition, I dont think that games desensitizing children because I think that only violent games does that but most of games does not contains that much killing. However, I also agree with him by some points. For example, David Grossman stated that most games simulate warfare and actually I think about 75% of games simulate warfare, but in different levels. Some contains extreme violent but there are still some that does not teach kids to be violent. I also agree that games made kids addict to it like smoking because there were, there are and there will be kids quit their education to play games. In conclusion, I agree with Grossman that games does addict kids but I do not agree that all games are violent.

12 & 13 choose own games?


I think twelve and thirteen years old "kids" CAN choose their own games but only games that are rated and appropriate for their age (i.e. early childhood, everyone, teenagers, and everyone 10+) because these games does NOT contains any violents (or some, not much), any form of drugs or alcohol. I think twelve and thirteen years old can choose their games freely but should be under a supervised of an older adults who understand a lot about the good side and the bad side. In conclusion, twelve and thirteen years old should NOT play games that are not suitable for them (i.e.  mature 17+, and adults only 18+), and under any circumstances they should be supervised and advised by an adult that understand a lot about games.
