What children should see in the home

I do not favor censorship of video games, any more than I do censorship of movies. But I would not have those video games or movies in my home—whether or not there were children in it. Children should see lovemaking, not violence.

— Richard M. Stallman [original quote]

I don't necessarily agree with the last part, but it was very amusing. I knew at least one other person in high school who argued persuasively to this effect.

I'd tend to say that those who don't permit a video game console in their home deprive their children. Young children shouldn't be exposed to violent video games, certainly.
