 Commentary on the way children interact in the new digital age. Games, and inanimate devices seem to slowly be taking over the place of human interaction amongst younger and younger children, as parents become less parental, bullying becomes more and more rampant, and a video screen can seem so safe, and a wonderful escape.

To many children I see.. hours upon hours in front of a hand-held video game is more natural than saying hi to another child their age.. they love the characters they play, they embrace the sense of escape they get, and they really are.. best friends.

Took a pretty huge chance with this.. Not complaining at all.. 4.8 isn't bad for out-of-the-box to this extent.

Nice background. Nice clear image. The message is a bit disturbing, however. Funny, though. :)
