People who actually think young children shouldnβt be allowed to play video games should be executed. The level of damage and pain you cause a nerdy kid by forcing them to live without video games is unfathomable and no one who makes that decision (like OP) does it not knowing that theyβre going to fuck them up for a good chunk of their life.

Video games were only invented in the last 60 years.
How come we never hear of the "damage and pain" of all the kids before who lived without video games, huh?

You want autists to go back to collecting stamps or something? I'd rather autists keep spending their time sperging over hyper-specific speedrun glitches or something at least.

There's a place for both

She only lets him play WEGs on his Sbitch. If he plays Segay Sonic garbage or whatever Nintendie shit at this age, he'll aquire terminal autism. While, with WEGs, he'll become a GIGAChad.

I mean, if they never play video games, how would they know they're missing out on something grand?
If I had a son, I'd probably just give them books and comics.

I only said that because that's how I was raised. I didn't have an Xbox 360 (which is what everyone had), I didn't have any of the latest games, I didn't get an iPhone or an iPod, and I still had friends because school and summer camp doesn't involve any of that.
They're conversation starters, but kids mostly interact through playing.
