Pornography better for the kids than video games

Online parent poll shows shocking results.

According to an online poll conducted by What They Play, 3,000 parents are more concerned about their child playing video games than drinking alcohol or watching porn.

The first poll which took place April this year, with 1,266 participants found that nine per cent of parents think repeated use of the F-word in games is unacceptable. A huge 37 per cent are more offended by a man and woman having sex on a game – where did their kids come from?

The second poll in August this year asked what parents were more concerned about when their child was at a sleep-over, here the results showed that parents were more scared about their child playing games like Grand Theft Auto than watching porn.

Love-making worse than swearing and games worse than porn – what is the world coming to?

John Davison, president of What They Like says that, "These poll results demonstrate that parents are as apprehensive about their children's media diets as they are about traditional social issues such as alcohol, drugs, violence and sex.”

The problem seems to be that only bad video games get any media coverage, and so parents are lead to believe that they contain drugs, violence and sex.

Mike Goodman further this by saying that, "If it's controversial, it leads.”

"Gamers know the truth, but non-gamers are influenced by what they see on the news, and they think video games are corrupting the morals of our youth."
