At the end of the day we need to blame the parents and not the people playing the games. I wonder how many of those people have actually played a video game. I played videos games since I was 8 and only in the last few years have I started playing violent video games, WHY? MY PARENTS WOULD NOT LET ME! So, why do other parents have this so called “problem” in controlling what their kids play?

The Alan Titchmarsh Show - “video games promote hatred, violence and sexism”

The anger I feel about this subject made me feel the need to share. 

Why should the Games Industry be blamed and penalized because of negligent parents who are buying their 13 year old kid the latest 18 game for their birthday without reading the content? 
Alas as long as there are violent games and susceptible kids then the industry will always be blamed.

Thoughts on the matter?
