Games I feel are beginning to ACTUALLY become neccesary for today's youth. Think about this for a second. What to most suburban kids have at least one of. A Gaming system. What DON'T poor inner-city kids have? A Gaming System. Which of those two is more likely to take their .45 into the street and join a gang?

Also, think about this. In times much earlier. I'm talking like Pre 1800's. Children used to go out with friends, and hunt! OH NO PETA! LITTLE KIDS USED TO GO OUT AND KILL ANIMALS FOR FUN! That was their release. Later on boxing was big. That was their release. It was violent but not Illegal. No one tried to kill another in Boxing, it was a gentlemen's sport. Later still around the 70's, when kids were young. They used to play games like Kill the Carrier, Sniper, and Dodgeball. Those sort of games again have that violent aspect while having no bearing on killing anyone. (Despite the precarious name of Kill the Carrier Very Happy ) But you never wanted to kill another human in those games, just get the ball from them or knock them down. Now Games come into the picture. I know, growing up with video gaming, that kids aren't going out and playing Kill the Carrier or any of those type of games. Our schools have all but outlawed Dodge ball because of people saying it is teaching violence in schools. Kids don't box, because where would they start? Boxing has been out for quite a while among young people. Finally do they hunt? Rarely and only if their parent's or someone they know goes, because you can't just walk out your back door into a forest and bag a deer. There are only small areas to hunt in, you need a liscence, and with development, there just aren't as many animals around anymore.

Now what the hell does this big long boring history of children I have written mean to you? Well think of this. When people talk about stress they say "The worst thing to do is bottle it up". Now our children if they don't play some violent games, have no outlet. Human's naturally have some violence in them and it is more aparant in some than others. They will keep bottling it up until it starts affecting them. You may not see it until it's too late but usually when something big happens it has been building for a long time.

That's my 32$.
