And if he watches violent TV, they probably haven't explained to him what's real and what's not or he's probably not up to the level of intelligence to naturally comprehend that by himself. If they let him jump a security fence, which I couldn't even get away with at this age, the maybe they've been very negligent in other areas of his life?
I'm sick and fucking tired of people blaming any sort of media on why their kids are insane. If you raise your fucking kids properly and act like a real parent, then your kids should be fine even if they play GTA: San Andreas all day, every day. If a show or game really did influence the kid that much, then fuck his parents for letting him watch it. I'm tired of these pass the buck, don't blame the parents idealists who think that video games have more influence on a child's development than his fucking parents.

Sorry, just the second you mentioned TV I lost it, though yeah they probably were incredibly negligent which is why these parents aught to be locked up.
