Thirdly, I go against what all these so called educational experts say because they (I am generalizing) are fucking uptight assholes and religious fanatics who think by controlling what you are exposed to, they can control your thought, so they can control your actions and make the world easier for their "class" to take for themselves. fuck them and their trite bullshit. If we listened to them all this time, we'd be a bunch of controlled sheep.
being in this business is a statment about all of our thought process...we are not going to follow what the moral majority say's or thinks, fuck them! we are free, and will fight to the death to keep our thoughts that way.

His "nature" is what is being formed right now.
The point of being a really young kid is that you don't know yet what's good for you. That's why kids sometimes need to be told what they are allowed to do, and what they aren't.
As for your ideas on educational experts... those are just wrong. And I'm not talking about the religious fundamentalists, but about the child psychologists who are experts on issues like these. The fact of the matter is that results of studies so far have produced mixed results, with violent video games possible causing more feelings of aggression and such.
Even if there is no conclusive evidence of these effects of violent video games, do you really want to use your son as a living experiment, just because it seems to you that it probably won't do much harm?
