My life is better as a video game

I had a few minutes during my kindergartners' nap time and checked out an article on FOXNEWS.COM. In short, a boy's father realized a change in his son's personality and behavior after long hours playing "Call of Duty 4." As a result, Dad removed his xbox console. His son left on bicycle and was found dead in a corn field in Barrie, Ontario.

How can video games wrap up our boys so tightly that it constricts the role of the real world?

Who's at fault here? How can uninformed adults in a child's life be enlightened to the idea that giving that child the world can be the death of him?

I guess that is all I have to say.
