He didn't learn to drive from the video game. 95% of that knowledge came from watching the parents drive. I do however believe if you play Forza on max simulation in a car similar to the one you drive in real life, it will make you a better driver. Typical media to blame an industry rather then the parents. The parents are…
Working at EB a while back when gta 4 came out (and especially after hot coffee was discovered) we had to ask everyone for ID and required that they be 18 or over, most parents were there buying the game and we had to warn about it's contents and they parent still bought it for them anyway.

On MSNBC this video is titled "No more video games for 7-year-old driver" http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/26184891/vp/32233707#32235174 7-year old kid refuses to go to church, so he steals the family car, and takes it for a drive.

NEVER....EVER....EEEVVVEEEERRRR! say something like that again. Even implying that he whose name shant be said is not the douchiest being in existence is an affront to...well.....pretty much everyone and everything. I haven't watched the video, does it say what game taught him to play games that he isn't supposed to play…
exactly... that's the purpose of my anecdote... this kid stole his parents car and all they're doing is grounding him... 7yrs old, sweet as can be, good kid.... cry me a river and carve a canoe... where's the righteous belt of discipline? now... i will say that if this happened to me, i wouldn't go on national television…
