saying how shocked a 8 year old
in her class was given a Tour Of Duty 18 rated Game
and every night the 8 year old,
talks online to strangers - about the game.

I bet she was shocked...if he drifts off, I wonder what he dreams about at the age of 8..

Im sure it's proven that if violence is inflicted upon a child or a child sees a lot of violence in real life..that it has a major effect on them in later life. ..often ending up dead or drugged up..or prison for all sorts of things...


So who's to say that a child of 8 constantly playing cod and other violent video games..who's to say that don't effect them.

Studies have extensively shown that playing violent video games doesn't lead to violent actions.

Video game addiction is a different kettle of fish.

It's not impossible, but for every study that's been carried out to say basically the same thing? Pushing it.
