Yes, it's finally out! Grand Theft Auto V has just been
released and you know what that means...parents and their media enabler are
going to go nuts again on a game that allow that precious little tots to shoot,
kill and main characters in a video game.
Not helping matter is the fact that in Singapore the game is
rated M18 but kids younger than that have no problem getting their hands on a
copy of the game. Now it’s worth mentioning that yes, when it comes to sex,
drugs, and violence, the GTA series pushes boundaries. It's part of the fun of
the GTA series. However before the morality police comes out with their
pitchforks, let's get this straight; if your kids have sex, do violence, and
swears, chances are it's not because of a video game. Chances are it's because
kids are kids. It's what we all do when we are young.
As a guy who had played all the GTA games since GTA II, I
can say this; if your kid do harm to other people due to a video game, then you
have a kid with problems on your hands. You need to help your kid with his/her
problems, not go blame a video game for it. After all, it's just a video game
for god sake!
