People like you give us proper gamers a bad name.
You should be ashamed of your parents buying those games for you...
Awful parenting tbh
ags
I think you'll find that my parents have raised my brother to such a standard that he is mentally capable of determining the difference between real life and games - People like you give narrow minded, uninformed accusational types a breeding ground. What makes you a
proper gamer? The fact that you are above 18, or is it simply that your horse is taller?
Are you not all the same people who argue against the "Video games cause violence" attitude? Or I bet many of you certainly practice "Respect your elders" - How can you expect someone like my brother to grow into someone who will respect his elders when he asks for help and gets flamed down by a group of grown men (in most cases). Fair enough point the stick and laugh, I certainly have, but please discount the [likely] hypocritical and completely unnecessary remarks.
I think it is unwise to slander my parents who you know nothing about, as they have in fact raised my brother to be one of the most intelligent, quick thinking young people I have ever encountered. From a young age he has exceeded in every aspect of life, and can probably out-game most of you whom so accuse, in any case. I play certificate 18 games with my brother, as does my dad sometimes. It is my parents' choice, and they have deemed him to be responsible enough to be able to ascertain the difference between what happens as a result of him pressing buttons, or as a result of him doing something in life. It is not your place to make an uninformed assumption.
I'm all for a laugh, but when the focal point changes and people begin to overstep the mark and try to comment on things which they know absolutely nothing about (Such as mine and my brother's upbringing), then it is time for an end. In any case, I rest assured that my brother will go on from this to learn that he must use my DOB, not his, as he will actually remember the thing then...
Anyway, agnes - if your parents had done a better job raising you, then we might take the view that you would be offering help to my brother, perhaps suggesting other games a 12 year old with an 18 year old's brain capacity might play. Maybe you should have politely informed him of the illegality of his actions, or you could simply have said nothing and minded your own business... As I'm sure they will have taught you "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all".
Sorry for the rant, but it is a bloody ridiculous remark from yourself, and should my brother utter something like this even at his age, I would be disappointed with his capacity and point him toward a less narrow minded approach.
