He's playing Halo which is connected to an online community so he's playing with others.

My wife works with kindergarteners and first graders who are allowed by their parents to play Grand Theft Auto.

She'll frequently ask her students on Mondays or after long breaks what they did.  They'll often respond that they played video games, going into detail concerning what the games are about.  She'll reply that she thinks it's inappropriate and doesn't want to hear them talking about it anymore.  The children get a rather surprised look on their faces.

She's stuck because she can't say, "Your parents are bad parents.", and during meetings, unless there's obvious signs of neglect or abuse, she can't tell the parents that they're doing some bad parenting, but when and where she can, she tries to instill in her students some basic manners, responsibility and morals.

Some of these video games are like candy drugs.

There oughta be a new commercial... remember the drug commercial with the egg getting fried in a skillet?
