Sorry, I agree with her on this one. My 9 year old son wants GTA3 badly and I refuse to get it for him. I think that kids don't need to be exposed to that at a young age. When he's older, it's his choice, but when he's a child, it's my choice what he can and cannot play. I find the ratings very helpful in determining whether or not I'm willing to buy him a game. We saw a lot of violence in Bugs Bunny cartoons, but we never saw rape, and I'd rather my 9 year old not be exposed to that yet. As a parent, I'd say that's my right.

This is definitely your choice, and I can respect it, but there has never been any tie between exposure to violence or sexuality, and propensity to participate in these acts, in any major study I've ever seen performed.

I guess my point is that I can totally agree with your decision, because it's yours - but Hilary's move here is a $90 million brainfart to dbag into something she'll never get (the non-moderate right side) for something that's already been studied.
