How many parents listen to PTC?

How many parents are gamers?

I think the scales are tipping the other way real soon now, if it hasn’t already. "

I'm not so interested in how many Parents choose the PTC method of raising their own children, or the CSM method, or the direct ESRB method, or Gamerdad method, etc.

It's the fact that the PTC wants to FORCE those who DON'T follow their methods to actually follow their methods.

The ESRB is informative and can be followed or not followed by any individual or Parent.
GamerDad is informative and can be followed or not followed by any individual or Parent.
And so on.

BUT, the CSM and PTC and others not only want to be informative to those who voluntarily choose to follow them, but want THEIR method to be FORCED on Parents and individuals. They do it by stigmatizing anyone who doesn't follow their methods. They do it by stigmatizing any politician who doesn't follow their methods and try to regulate their methods by government decree. They do it by attempting to violate the Rights of individuals and Parents who don't agree with them.

That's the only place I have a problem with them. If someone thinks that the PTC's methods or CSM's methods are more appropriate for them or their family, fine and dandy. That's their Right.

So I'm not concerned with how many listen to them. Just their attempts at FORCING everyone else to obey them.

Obi Wan Stevobi: MS sure did screw Bungie over at E3 this year. Pulled their presentation, leaked their game, and ruined their ARG.
