In the 1980's I did play video games like Pac-man, Space Invaders, Speed Racing etc., but I will did not play overly violent games where you get points by killing people, I will never, for example, play Grand Thief Auto. People who are mentally ill will play those games in real life. The problem is parents don't pay attention of the starting age stated on the box, it usually says 17 or over, if your child is 17 and over she/he should know it is not real and it's all fake, if they are below 17 years old, then that's when the trouble begins.
However, it doesn't mean it is safe for them to play if they are 17 and over, either, They might, for example, be drinking booze and/or using drugs. Let's take a gangster rap songs with lyrics like "I want to beat up that bitch","I want to beat up that bitch", "I want to beat up that bitch" .And if that person is drunk and/or on drugs then it like a hypnotic self suggestion and hearing that sentence over and over again, there is a big chance they'll be carrying it out for real and beat up on a woman in real life; In other words, they do not know reality from fantasy.
Yes, teenagers or I should say teenagers with mental health issues, like to play real life video games, We have had teenagers in town going house to house stealing items and maybe issuing points for them. They even tried to rob a Laundry mat by prying coin boxes off washing and drying machines, mmmm I wonder if there are alarms built into those machines? Yes, they're dumb, because there was a coin changer box mounted on the wall, that was loaded with dollar bills, as well with coins. .They said they were innocent, thing is they have close circuit cameras all through the laundry mats.
Fortunately, there are very famous department stores that will never sell violent videos games or sell CD music with lyrics glorifying violence.Want the book "Trumpism ?" you will not find it in those stores. No sane person wants to read Trump's lies anyway (end)
