Video games are changing , at 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 and 16 , kids arent mature enough to make decisions and cant be influenced easily by crap. You can block movies , tv channels , internet , but nothing stops or allows a parent to decide if a minor is going to buy a slasher flick like game.

Dude, quit making shit up. The average parent DOES NOT work 2 jobs. Did you know that 80% of percentages and facts are made up? Good, sense the irony.
Mature rated games ARE NOT harmful to kids over 13. Give me a ****ing break man, do you really think our youth is that ****ing stupid? I take that as in insult, actually. Anyone who can't tell VIDEO (aka, PIXELS ON A SCREEN) from reality has major problems, and their parents should be watching them closer. I mean hell, look at movies like Saw and Hostel. So I guess kids that see that are going to go and capture people, and torture them to death? No. Movies are MORE impressionable than games, because it's done by REAL people, in psuedo-REAL situations.
Agian, you make excuses "parents can't be everywhere. Do you honestly thiink a 13-16 year old kid can drive? No. How the hell are they going to get the game? By A) asking mommy or daddy to drive them there, or B ) ordering it offline, OR C) walk there. Either way, the PARENTS should be PARENTS and say no in problems A & B, and in C the retailer would not sell the game, because of it's restrictions. I don't care what you say, you're spouting lies when you say every store disregards the system. It's a flat out lie and you know it.
That's a HORRIBLE argument that's parents are unable to police them. Yeah, they can't control it when their kids buy it, but they sure can ***** about it afterwards, huh?
Are you sure you don't work for Fox News?
