[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 245294, member: 6546"] MyHrt-- I don't necessarily view this issue as only a difficult child issue. Men and boys are far more affected by visual stimuli than women. Studies have shown that men and boys actually experience a rise in their testosterone levels in response to merely seeing something. This means that if they watch a football game--they experience the same sort of rush as if they were playing the game themselves (hence the allure of televised sports). And this physiological response applies to anything they might observe...whether it be sports, movies, video games, nudie magazines, the lingerie department, etc etc Men are visually stimulated. So with that in mind--what do you feel you want your son to be stimulated by? If you don't want him to experience the rush of war or high-speed destruction...then DON'T let him play violent video games. And don't feel guilty about it.... --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
