@memu: What if someone told you, that you couldn't play a game because of something you couldn't control? Kids are playing Five nights at Freddy's, a horror game, yet humorously popular with kids. I think it should be to the individual child, what he/she can or cannot take in of content, who better to make that choice then the person that will be using these games/movies.
@xolare : What about girls? I don't think kids should be filtered out just because of their age, alot of children play CS:GO and other hugely popular multiplayer games. What if we did that for any other attribute for a person, it could be racist, sexist, but when it's a child it's okay, why? It's an innocent videogame, that everyone should be able to enjoy.
@justin258: I think we have to move past the "be an adult" thing, because being an adult entails you to be very toxic to underaged people, it's the no true scotsman fallacy, just applied to age instead.
@marcsman : : Outdated meme, humans are fragile, they need love and care to succeed.
@gamer_152: I guess back then that being a child, i was always around other kids in online games, i guess that's what's up, kids are nicer to each other when no "adults" are around. I've noticed a phenomenon that only occurs online, if you say or try to do something about the harasser, you're suddenly just as bad, because you said something, you're put in the same category as the offender.
@themanwithnoplan: A further discussion element could be that girls are also "singled out". How often is it a girl that's being the asshole? It's rare that i hear any girls even use voice chat at all. Why it it always guys? I really don't think that most people that play video games are guys but even if that was true, girls rarely use voice chat.
