Bad parenting?

Post by **Motar** » Mon Sep 13, 2004 10:30 pm

I have seen Elephant in the cinema and i dissagree about games.

If u are a RESPONSIBLE parent ur kids will not have video games for 18 years and older.

The dude,s in Elephant are f**ked up anyway and it is just 2 bad they like video games.

When there where no video games and kids killed someone people blamed movies and there parents etc.

When there was no TV people just said the kids where NOT ALright. And blamed the parents

It is the world that makes them think those things like killing are fine...i mean when u see a dead people on tv kids might think hey maybe when i kill someone people will film me and i will be on tv and they will listen to my problem.

My point is that if a kid does not see the difference between right and wrong don,t blaim tv games or whatever.

If a person is not mentally functional it is not the responsebility of movie or game makers.

I have been gaming sinds i was 6 and i am not crazy...not yet that is. Blaim everything but not the entertainment..

What u think a kid thinks when they see other children half naked outside a school filled with dead terrorists and corpses of children.

Think that is ok?

Responsible parent or not, if your kids gonna be a wacko. there gonna be a wacko, you can only point them in the right direction and draw boundaries if need be but it doesn't guarantee jack, thankfully my kids (oldest 22, youngest 15) have turned out sensible to which i'd also put down to responsible parenting, but if they hadn't, i certainly wouldn't be blaming video games or TV.

NAZY GERMANY would glorify Max Max 1 because of its content. Good Cop exterminates scum (jews?) and saves the world ...

I remember reading in a psychology book that when

non-aggressive children play violent video games, it

does not increase their aggression, but when children

that are aggressive to begin with play violent video

games, it does increase their aggression.

i think the NAZI's would dig MAD MAX 2 better (despite the blatant homosexuality) - check out all those Iron cross' and Deaths Heads

I think that the nazis would lean more towards liking

Mad Max 1 more. Remember when Max was talking to Jessie

and he described his father?

quote: "He was tall and imposing... and took long

strait-legged strides... and I was walking along side

him just trying to keep up. I never told him how proud I

was of him. He was a real ubermensch, Jessie."

I don't have kids, but my parents didn't go in for the censorship thing, I was allowed to watch, read or listen to most things, my Dad would usually watch a movie first and then give it the ok before my brother and I would be allowed to see it.

my parents where always of the school of thought that if you tell a kid somethings wrong or bad that'll only make them curious as to why it's wrong or bad.

On the flip side I've a friend who had a very very strict catholic upbringing and he's far from being a balanced adult...

Thats what i do SKID, i watch the movie first, like MATRIX, or whatever, and if i think they can handle it, they can watch it.

though i don't think we give our kids enough credit, they can usually take most stuff, I mean sh*t, my kidsd have to sit through the News every night, with me and the missus, - countless bloody explosions, and be headings this past year, and i've only been asked once about ''why are those men, in masks, holding a gun to that other mans head?"

HUMUNGUS' Army were called THE VERMIN, thats what the NAZI's used to refer to the Jews in their propoganda films.
