Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
This turns out to be one of the big divides in the culture war.
Me, I think both sex and violence are generally inappropriate for little kids, and generally OK (in fiction, for violence) for older people. How is this tricky?!?

What is even happening?
I don't want my kids to have either on their video games. That's why so far, they have a Harry Potter cartridge, a Fairly Odd Parents Cartridge, and a Pac Man cartridge for the GameBoy. Of course, I am No Fun. At. All.
I think there ought to be truth in advertising, so to speak, though. If someone thought they were buying a sexy video game for their kids, and got sneak scenes of violence, I'd think that was wrong, and vice versa.

Nuh-uh! Nothing's funner than Pac-Man!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
hit the "Fn" button on your keyboard. It looks like you've turned on the number keypad....do you have a laptop?Oh, Maria, I could just kiss you and kiss you and kiss you. Especially if this works when I get home.
Just buff diving in my brain.So not just me who does that? What a relief.
do you think your kids were mature enough to learn the adult lesson that sometimes good TV shows have crappy episodes?In my mind, this episode consists entirely of Giles singing. It's a short episode, but I think it's for the best.

I can't even.
I am pretty much OK with sex and violence.
They're kind of a requirement for me. (Let me sum up) I can be walking out of a room and hear the adult content warning for a movie, and if it has violence, sexual content and coarse language, I'll sit back down. Anything less and I'm probably not piqued. Not to say that I never watch or enjoy movies without said warnings (that would be far from the truth), but thank goodness for HBO is all I can say. Why don't I have the Sopranos and Deadwood on dvd yet? Sheer laziness, most likely.

It's probably their least favorite, but the time I tried to play it, it also looked quite different from arcade style Pac-Man, which...RIP OFF! We were trying to recapture our youth, darn it.

Coding and Sleeping
I think my kids haven't yet figured out that there are video games that aren't educational. (Except for Midtown Madness which my daughter has played a few times)

You get that the GTA thing involves a (free, and easily accessible, but still) separate download to get the sexy sex, right? Not the regular hooker-giving-you-a-blowjob-in-the-car that's a regular part of the game, but the full frontal (video game) stuff.
