Doing games for that purpose is stupid. Better have parents teach them what's proper behavior… Same as with game consoles: when no one wants to care about their children they better buy gadgets to keep them entertained and working as nannies. If parents are so worried about having children to become a spoiled generation, either talk to them or don't have them.. The state or school system will never permeate to youngsters as peers or people they look up to do. Children and teens don't respect their parents because the family nucleus is completely broken. That's why teens seek guidance on the internet or whatever place they like and respect. The internet won't be changed. No one may prohibit children to get on the internet or watch TV for that matter. Those $434,000 should be spent on hands-on campaigns with parents to try encourage them to talk to their children properly about risks involved with sexual intercourse and so forth. Trying to create eunuchs will, as always, get the extreme opposite reaction, just like a slingshot.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Alex Kunstmann]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 29th 2010 4:02PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
