What do you think about warnings on video games?

3. My position is not the popular one

But I'll reduce it down to "What do you want inside your son's head?" Yeah, not everyone who indulges violent, graphic video games turns out to be an ax murderer (and if you keep saying that, I'll take an ax to you!). But what is your son being taught by these games? Is he being routinely desensitized to violence and gore from an early age, and what might result from that? You're not the government, so there's no limitation on the game designers' freedom of expression, nor is there any censorship involved; those are not germane to the discussion at hand. You're the mother and this is your son. What is it you want him to learn? Is there an insufficient amount of actual violence in our society that our free time must be dominated by simulated violence?
