Those kinds of readers are also less likely to scroll down past the articles posted over the weekend. I popped it up top for a bit, it'll drop back down soon.

Even Grand Theft Childhood, which has been oft-quoted for stating things about gaming not making killers, has shown correlations between bedroom game systems and worse behavior and grades - not causal links, mind you. Regardless, when you put the stuff in their room, it becomes part of their space, and you are violating their space to see what they are doing. Public space means public behavior. - As for the 10-year old ... yeah, complain about T games that should be E-10 for now .. .and enjoy as many of them as you can for the next few years.

It's the exact same article with no alterations at all. You posted this week's edition of Ask Gamerdad a few days ago. In fact, it's still got the same date at the top.
