I was talking with a coworker about what games my parents allow me to play, and what they let their kids play. My parents were fine with most things bloody things, like Resident Evil 4, Left 4 Dead and Gears of War, mostly because you were fighting like aliens or zombies. They were fine with military shooters too, and got really interested in the Modern Warfare storylines. The game that they really had a problem with was GTA, of course, but later, when my little sister started playing it, they got invested in GTA 5’s story, so eventually we could just play whatever we really wanted. How bout you all? Did your parents have any weird or strict rules in games or movies?

    Born in the 80s, when I started playing video games around 6 they kept me on games adequate to my age until I reached high school.

    After that they mostly let me play whichever game I wanted, the only conditions were that I had to get enough sleep (and if I didn’t, not to complain that I was tired in the morning) and have good grades.
