Nowadays, children are exposed to media and to digital games more often then our generation when we (now already parents) were children. Digitalization has become an inseparable part of everyone's life. Thus, instead of rejecting and struggling with it we need to use it to benefit from it. Being a mother by myself I would recommend parents to have informal everyday routine discussion on the flow of information, especially games played from little members of the family. Children must not be deprived of information flow, but the parents must always monitor the process, must filter very carefully information appropriate to the children's' age. Before banning something for your child remember you at their age; what was your reaction? Because this or that was not allowed to you, you wanted to explore more, you even tried to do the opposite of what you were told, didn't you? I, personally, did.Based on the readings done for this particular topic parents need to monitor the children, as they can not distinguish what is real and what is fantasy (C. McCarthy, Harvard Health Publishing).
According to a group of research psychologists, people who play violent video games are more aggressive as compared to those who don't.
Other researchers point out that "even though more people have spent more time playing violent games in recent years, violent crime rates have decreased" (B. Azar, American Psychological Association).
