You made a whole lot of assumptions there and none of them are correct. Try to actually read what I've said and not shove your poorly comprehended assumptions down my throat

If you are going to complain about violent video games, you can't expect the world to change for just for you. If you don't want kids to access violent video games then you have to be pro-active otherwise you have no grounds to complain if your kid plays or watches something you didn't want them to. You want to have your cake and eat it and guess what? You can't.

If you're that concerned about violent video games but not so concerned about who your child might be hanging out with then your priorities seem a bit borked. Your argument works against you, in that regard.

When have I ever mentioned anything about abductions or accidents? I've only ever said that parents shouldn't complain about violent video games if they can't be bothered to even look into something as elementary as parental controls. You have a habit of diving headfirst into the deep end with illogical and bizarre points that don't really relate to the topic when you are on the ropes.
