I would say 90% of the time its because the parents are slack assed retards.

Learn to discipline a child, and he'll turn out perfectly fine. Most parents will never grasp this simply amazing "concept".

But quite a surprise from someone being the star of a handful of videogames himself.

MOSY PARENTS…???? 90%, slack ass retards, discipline a child and he’ll turn out fine?????

I don’t get your flame….I have been in the military, have 7 kids my son is in the military now and we played games of all types but I wasn’t a 90% moron, slack assed retard for playing games rated mature with my son when he was younger. He turned out awesome and is in Special Ops in real time (as I) and fraggin the real bad asses.

Maybe SOME parents could fall into that statement but it is to much a general statement to state MOST parents. If you allow the gaming console or pc to baby sit your kid as he/she grows up without interaction with them, well I could understand. but those are not MOST parents.

My 10 year old has been PC gaming since 6. She is doing the Nancy Drew platform now, my wife plays with her and helps most of the time but not all the time but we also check in during her gaming. MOST parents do care.

Where did you get those stats????

Isnt there something like this out already? If parents care about what their kids watch and play, they should be informed by the ratings I would think.

 

[russianboy]

has Arnold ever had hot sauce put on his dick!?!

I don't think so.

 

[Dippyskoodlez]

Where did you get those stats????

Most parents with annoying children.

Go to walmart.

Pick a loud child. You won't have to look far.

Look how the parent deals with it.

Point in case.

do it right.. like you perhaps.. and they turn out fine ;D

This all seems a little hypocritical coming from one of the biggest action hero movie stars ever. The one who made sooooo many violent movies about shooting and blowing up thousands of people.....

What a cock!!!

Its like seeing the taliban promoting peace or mike tyson saying boxing is bad...

What a load of crap...

I think dippy was talking about the cases of bad kids not all kids. And to tell you the truth I agree with him 100%. A "majority" of the time it is the parents fault. Some times it can be genetic or mental etc.

Parenting these days is getting worse, I see 6 yr old kids at the shops chuck a tantrem and swear at their mother... it makes me want to go over there and give the kid a smack on the ass.


I don't blame video games or movies etc.. a kid, if bought up correctly, will know what is right and wrong, will know respect and will know that games are just games and movies are just movies...

That is my opinion

yeah your a dumass lol

has anyone thought about the genetic amplification effect? simply, if there is poison in an enviroment,it will be more apparent twenty generations later, even if most of the origional poison is gone. now, look at it this way: most people grew up well because theirparents were kind, but very hard-assed when needed. now, people bring up their kids and say that they refuse to hit them, or hit them for no reason. so, there is either the effect where people grow up liking the kinder side of their parents, and pass this on through the generations untill there is no discipline, or parents constantly beat the **** out of their kids untill the kid only understands violence. beyond that, movies/ games can only educate people on how to use weapons, or give them ideas as to how to be cruel. I used to play alot of shooters, like socom and cs, and I will tell you that the forces will train you things that these games can describe. most gamers can tell you where the safety is, they can tell you how to change firing rates, they can tell you where the magazine eject is, they can tell you how to maximize accuracy with a given weapon, and can even tell you about some of the basic tactics used by the forces. they will also tell you how to kill a person with a pool stick {hitman}, how to dis-embowel someone with a knife while running {stargate had something like this, and I'm certain hannibal the cannibal did}.

games and movies are just education for things these people already want to do. the most simple example, requiring no thought, is that people get the idea that "oh, I could do this for a living!", and then join the forces. I know six guys who joined because they played alot of games. I have only ever asked eight people why they joined.

Understood and I agree with your assessment. Its all in the big picture of taking a deep interest in the way you bring up your kids. But I would be careful of generalizations.

To DrunkenMafia and Dippyskoodlez, I am grateful that you two are conscious to the 21st century dilemma. Thanks for taking the time to listen and respond. It is much appreciated. Thank you to the both of you for your straightforwardness and opinions. I have read much of what you guys have responded throughout the forums, and you two have reaffirmed my reasons for joining the TPU forum.
