I'm one of the first ones to play down the effects of some of the violence and other activities on kids, but only to a certain degree. For instance I have no problem letting my son (8 years) play halo, it is not based in reality and he knows the bad guys are aliens, there is very minor swearing (nothing more than he'd hear on the playground). Let's not get into that debate here, but my rant is why do other parents think it is ok to get their kids the games rated mature for blood and gore or sex and then look at you funny when you say you kid is not allowed to play it?
Of course I shouldn't be too surprised since I'm pretty sure the babysitter for the kid in question is named X-BOX.
