War Isn't A Game After All

War Isn't A Game After All

War kills.
Should children train for it as they play?
War toys turn war into a game of good-guy army (that can do no
wrong) vs. bad-guy army (that deserves the most horrible
destruction imaginable). War toys, including violent video games,
teach children that the best way to solve conflicts is to eliminate the
people they are having conflicts with. These "entertainments" teach
conquest, murder, and contempt—early "training" that makes
violence and aggression acceptable and exciting to young people.
Playing with war toys and violent videos numbs children,
youths, and adults alike to the terrible truth:
War means death and suffering, not fun and games.
Should this be child's play?
War is not a game!!!
