Last week, I had to sub in a 6th grade classroom (simply because I have a student teacher and was the only warm body available) and they had to read Scholastic News, an educational publication based on current events. It had an article on game violence. It read that major stores are going to begin to card people before selling games that are considered violent. It went on to say that movies and games not "intended" for children are often advertised during tiems children are watching televison. so my question is, "Why are games and movies not 'intended' for children being advertised during times and on channels that children are watching?"
