My hubby and I agreed that we would not let our kids play with the video games for they should be studying instead.
However, we are letting them play educational games such as the Encarta games. They have laptop toys in which the games programmed there are letting them be familiarized with letters and numbers.
My kids are aged 7,5 and 2. They will grow up too and I would like them to know about video games but not to the extent of being addicted to it.
I would let them choose and let them know the consequences of playing too much with the video games.
I would not want them to instill in their minds the violence, crime, provoking anger when playing war video games.

Wow, he must have been pretty upset. I think it was a little harsh.
My son is not bad with his PS2, yet. He is only 8 though. He only plays his a few times a week for about an hour at a time. When he gets a new game though he wants to play more often.

Kids now are really going crazy over online games & video games. My kids are even fighting because of it. What I did was I made a schedule of whose who, what time & it must be on weekends only.
