[QUOTE="ArmenianJohn, post: 76221636, member: 324023"] I also played cops and robbers, army, etc. when I was a kid but not without my mom condemning it for being violent. I understand that gaming is fantasy and play but there has to be a part of it that is appealing to a person in real life for them to want to play it. That's why we play "shoot-em-up" games but not "child-rape" games. And as kids go, they (hopefully) don't know what rape or chile-rape is yet, and what they DO know about cops and robbers, army, cowboys, etc. is a fictionalized less- or non-violent concept. They don't understand that shooting a living being causes such tremendous trauma to that person, they think it's just "bang bang!" and the person drops and dies instantly and painlessly. What appeals to kids is the right-and-wrong aspect of it more than the killing aspect - they understand the morality better than they understand the trauma of killing/harming people. [/QUOTE]
