An expert who really understands what to do about kids playing too much, and parents who have no clue on what to do. Who would have thought that a behavior specialist would suggest that a parent should play games with their kids, and suggest that keeping the consoles in the living room instead of their bedroom would benefit the parent/child relationship?

Hm. Advice that I always did on my own. My kids play games, but are well adjusted because I play with them, and are active in their gaming hobby.
 
Very insightful.

I especially liked his comment about the satire in GTA IV, and how its important for the satire of the game to not be taken seriously, otherwise it truly does become a vile and reprehensible game.
 
Wow expert who is actualy advocating parents actauly be parents to there kids rather than just blame the video game. I would add only one suggestion if you have a teenager and your not sure if a particular M-rated game is something you want your kid to play try to find it at a video store first and rent it.
