If you’re buying a Mature game, don’t bring younger siblings

A similar example to the phenomenon I'm describing above would be handicap parking spaces; there are significantly less handicapped people than non-handicapped people, so one might argue that majority rules and tough luck crippled guys.

However, I think most reasonable people would agree that it is a very mild inconvenience to that majority of people (we can't park in the two closest spaces to the front entrance of a store) and it greatly assists those in need, so it's an inconveniance I'm willing to live with.

In the case we're discussing, I'm willing to take a very mild inconvenience to assist the parents who do not have the same views that I do.

Well, I can see your point, but I don't share the view that a video game is dangerous for a child and I don't see any point in "protecting" children from it. I do think its important that the child understands its fiction though, but if you're gonna raise you're child going around and saying everything is bad and don't allow them to do anything they'll end up hating you and doing it anyways. I think its better to have a liberal view and just be informative about the content.

 This is your position. Other people believe differently, and do believe video games are dangerous for children, and I respect their opinions.

Just because you don't agree with them doesn't mean you can't accomodate them. I don't agree with a lot of people. I'm not Christian, for example, but I'm quite grateful that I'm not forced to be one in this country.
