Pupils 'acting out rape scenes from Grand Theft Auto'

Quote:

Schoolchildren as young as SIX are re-enacting rape and sex scenes from Grand Theft Auto in the playground, a headteacher has warned.

Youngsters have been initiating play sketches based on the violent adult video game as well as chatting about "drug use" at the Welsh primary school.

Coed-y-Brain Primary School head Morian Morgan warned parents of her disturbing findings in a letter.

Staff at the school in Llanbradach, Caerphilly, blame the worrying behaviour on the 18-rated game series Grand Theft Auto, which sees players take on the role of criminals in America's dark and seedy underworld.

Latest instalment GTA V is thought to be one of the best-selling video games of all time, having sold more than 32 million copies worldwide.

Mr Morgan said children were "acting out scenes from the game which include the strongest of sexual swear words", "having conversations" about sexual acts and "play acting extremely violent games that sometimes result in actual injury".

Speaking to the South Wales Argus, Mr Morgan insisted the letter was simply a way of making parents aware of this trend, rather than criticising them.

"Until I went online and checked the content of this game, I thought it was just a bit of swearing and some shooting and I think some of the parents will tell you that they have been equally naive," he told the newspaper.

"But I must stress it's not a matter of me condemning parents at all"

Updated with a more detailed article from the Mirror.

I'm sorry, but while I don't agree with the behaviour, it's not the game that's to blame. It's the parents for not doing their research before buying a 6 year old an 18 rated game. I wish people would stop blaming the game!

heaven forbid anyone blame parents or teachers or schools.

funny how they are never to blame.

There aren't any rape scenes in Grand Theft Auto...

****ing hookers to restore your health is pretty RAPEY, especially when you can kill them and take the money back...

so there's deifnitely a rape theme going on, i.e. men using women to **** for their own purposes with no regard for them...

that being said, it's just a video game.

i can guess what kind.

A) The game is rated ****ING 18, this doesn't seem to compute with the ****wad parents who buy these games for their kids, I remember I played GTA III at the time it came out, but I wasnt allowed to play it without my parents in the room, who'd explain what happened in the game was wrong. Plus GTA III was incredibly tame in comparison to GTA V.
B) There wasnt and never has been any rape scenes in Grand Theft Auto.

so having sex with a prostitute knowing you are then going to kill her and take your money back, you don't think that's rape?

Well no, since prostitution is pretty much the most consensual sex there is...

No that's murder.

and rape. if you have sex with a prostitute with no intention of paying her, that's rape.

I have no sympathy for parents who buy over 18 games for their kids, I had a friend who bought the first GTA for her then 8 year old and she couldn't see a problem with it :shrug:

Blaming a game for a child's behavior is moronic.

Super Mario got me in to magic mushrooms. lbh

There is no rape in this game. Lol at the reach by Alex.

Why are they talking **** about the game ffs, it's the stupid ****ing kids who should get the blame.

There is no rape scenes anyway :umm2:

GTA doesn't have any rape scenes in it

More bollocks tbh.

Gavs 11 year old son plays GTA. Yeah its rated 18, but hes bright enough to realise that its a GAME and not real life.

Gav plays it a lot and I have to say I dont think I have seen any rape scenes in it

:facepalm: No words. Just stupidity.

You just said they pay her and then kill her before taking the money back. That's murder and theft, not rape. :joker:

Also, whether you intend to pay them or not, they willingly have sex with you which is the opposite of rape.

There is no rape seen in the game at all. I've played through it and every sexual act was done with consent by both characters. And the prostitutes are hardly rape, if you kill them afterwards then you might be a bit cruel but that's murder and more importantly not real.

To blame this game on the behaviour of kids is ****ing hilarious. It's the parents you should be criticising for allowing their children to access such adult material so young. The 18 rating is there for a reason. It's not Rockstar's ****ing fault if people don't pay attention.
