1. Do you think that video games promote/advertise violence/drugs?

Yes, but they also promote problem solving and determination. The newer ones like Grand Theft Auto are worrying as they are about the world we live in now.

2. Do you think there should be stricter laws about the selling of games?

Yes, we have age restrictions on games, they are there for a reason. Parents and retailers should enforce these laws properly.

3. Do you think that video games are the main cause of violence in kids today?

No, lack of intelligence and negative attitudes are the main problems in kids.

4. Do you think that today’s kids are not playing outdoors enough because of video games?

No, they would have to be a deeper reason for them not going out, even if it is just laziness.

5. Do you think that overall, video games will affect the next generation in a negative way?

No, video games have been around for ages. They are not a new thing, but made to be highly addictive. Kids should have a healthy balance between games and books, and as long as they have that, they should be ok.



age; 26.
(eeeeek!!!) :o



Good luck with your project. ;)

1. No - It's merely a popular subject
2. Yes - In the UK at least, many games have to be reviewed by the BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) along with movies and music - All should be treated with the same guidelines of enforcement.
3. No - While it could be a contributing factor, they would only do so as a catalyst.
4. Some truth in that, so yes
5. No - They are affecting in both positive and negative ways. In effect, what they will do is counter each other but will affect the next generation in a different way rather than a better or worse way.

Oops - Forgot to mention :"> 18 and over

1. No, unlike a lot of sports

3. No, unless you count my pal&#39;s kids throwing the boxes at me when I win :P

4. Yes Look outside your window on Christlemass day, used to be everykid was out on their new bike/scooter/skates/skateboard/with new pram/ ehm...skis...sledge (weatgher dependant) how many have you seen in the last couple of years, how many kids will get a football for thei christmas etc etc

5. No, just another form of media

Im going to say No to all.

Its the parents decision what the child is going to watch and play. there are ratings on some games just as there is on movies.

If your not going to let your child watch a violent movie, then you are being a hipocrit in letting your children play violent video games.

It all comes down to what the parents choose for the children to be into. If you raise your child to like sports and encourage them to join with other ppl and have freinds, they are going to continue with that into adult hood.

If you just let them play video games from young age, well dont blame the games for your childs problems.

im over 18

1. yes-advertise violence/ no-drugs, no-promote violence. Healthy children can separate fantasy from reality. Just look at those old "road runner" cartoons.

2. As far as violent content, adult themes? No, adult labels already.

3. Is there an answer more severe than "no"? Fuck no?

4. If they are lean and healthy- no If they are fat- yes

5. No

Over 18.

Just like anything else in human history. Video games are "today&#39;s technology". When Galileo tried to convince the Catholic church that the earth revolved around the sun... Or when "talking pictures" were first introduced... or when blank cassette tapes would kill music sales...
