The issue is this:

"'Primary school headteachers have warned parents who allow their children to play video games such as Call Of Duty and Grand Theft Auto will be reported to police and social services for neglect."

All parents will be reported for neglect, regardless of any other factors. Lumping good parents in with bad, instead of focusing on those who need intervention.
