I bet most people have been in a situation like this: you warn a friend or relative not to do something, because it will have bad consequences. That person ignores you and does it anyway. And then you do something to protect that person from those bad consequences - maybe even sacrificing yourself so it is you who suffers them.
And you probably believe that makes you a good, caring friend.
Here’s some news: by doing that, you are only harming that person in the long run. And believe me, I’ve committed that error myself. But I try not to, any more.

For the last couple of decades, the media, sleazy lawyers (redundant, I know) and opportunistic politicians (there I go again…) have been, from time to time, creating media circuses because computer and video games are corrupting our children with gratuitous violence, blood, gore, disrespect for authority and, worst of all, nudity! That no scientific study (and there have been several) has ever linked real life violence with computer games is of no interest to these parasites - it is an opportunity to get richer (to a lawyer like the vermin above) and an opportunity to be seen as “protecting children” and “fighting for family values” (just check out Hillary Clinton, whom I had nothing against until now).
