Villainous Times: Parental Game & Watch

Lock on target,

    Parents and guardians, please give up the whole control scheme over abysmal logic over your children under the premise of such despicable sentences, such as; 'grow out of your childish games'  or 'get a regular job' or even 'such and such art won't get you anywhere, go get a real degree,' as if a degree meant anything today and you (parents / guardians) aren't addicted yourselves to some facet of comfort that you deny exists, usually the television, but then there is alcohol and other escape methods you utilize as well, don't pretend to disavow your little realms of ignorance adoring harbour of bliss.

      The escapism of children is honest and into dreams, played in games brought to you by their every growing, save when you sink it, imagination! Then there is the landscape of digital mixed multi gaming media via the console, the PC, MaC and now, more recently, phone! Sadly, in most cases the creative imagination is shot down by wicked sinful plague words of doubt and false realism that states 'the ordinary must be achieved in order to make it anywhere in society.' Of course this statement and others like it are brought to you by a disguised mantle of fear, that the parent using the statement above is to sentence the child to a life of silly nine to five debt solitary pay off confinement riddles that not even greed has solves yet, it adores all of the citizenry who dive willingly into its bed.

    So let your children dabble and potter, you don't really know what they'll be learning at, they might surprise you with their intellectual knowledge based future planning authentic charitable entrepreneur type artistic dreams, whether that be at home or online. Stop trying to counsel your children to a career or abysmal status quo career oriented creativity when they could be and currently are, working in positions around the globe that didn't even exist when you were born. Besides there are other very much more alarming to harming escape methods than books, online / board / role play games... Far far worse addictions lay socially accepted by the same hive minded parents that attempt to own their children's future in cigarettes, drugs or alcohol.

    Even you as parents may have your vice 'addiction,' which I mean is your preferred method of escape, that harms you daily or your long denied nearly dead dreams... Do the sitcoms, reality tv or game shows challenge you or allow you to interact with humanity? Most games allow one type or another of interaction or challenge, coordination hand to eye or in a team of people working to achieve a common goal. The mentality is the same, escape. Be glad at least they are not into something worse than 'games.'

     As you always liked to claim over us, respect your elders, well your children may be your spiritual/intellectual/knowledge and thus wise elders, respect their words and ponder over their wisdom. Oh yeah, and look at the log jammed in the remote control plotting your dreary half eye open course through televised on screen land, before pointing out the splinter on theirs.

In earnest anticipation of,
