I honestly want to bitch slap the parents when I see them buying a 9 year old games like GTA and COD... I did play PG13 and some older rated games when I was 10 years old but most of those parents don't even know their kids well enough to make an educated decision on what to allow them nowadays, they just want them off their back.

Besides, graphics and violence on screen are way more graphic then they were 20 years ago. Playing Street Fighter and playing GTA are two very different things.

I played GTA and all sorts of M rated games when I was very young, like 10-11 or so, probably younger I was like 8 when I played DOOM. My parantes quite frankly had no idea about anything games related so they allowed based on thinking all games were Mario, but they were excelent parents overall and eventualy they learned what those games were about and decided they just keep watch and if they noticed anything funny theyd take action but I turned out pretty alright, after all as I said, they were rgeat parents.

that's what's missing nowadays.

@Leadified: I dont think it's ridiculous if it starts awareness to some parents
