Here's your answer.
No, I'm not a parent, I'm just 18 years old now.
On topic:
It actually depends on the mental condition of the child, how strong is he from inside, how easily can he get influenced. How much time he spends playing those games.
I've been playing counter strike for 4-5 years now. I don't think, I'm getting violent because of that.
But it obviously differs from person to person.
I can say Watching WWE made me violent, when I was like 12 I hit a guy with Pedigree influenced from Triple H. If I started getting mad over something I would hit my friends with finishers, as I was stronger and healthier than them.
As I said it depends on children, I remember when I was small I saw in news that a guy kid jumped from terrace of a building saying "Shaktimaan"(Indian Super Hero) would save him.
did you seriously just use "using wrestling finishers on your friends" as an influence of video games making people more violent?
anyway, I think that they have some effect on our mind. I have dreams of violence at times and also of me being in the video games I play. I do not think it makes me a more violent person how ever.
