We just completed our final week of WizKids for the summer session. Post assessments and satisfaction surveys were completed, and the children were allowed to enjoy free time. Every week I ask the WizKids a question on their sign-in sheet. It is usually their favorite subject, favorite video game, or favorite sport. In light of the recent publicity surrounding the “Grand Theft Auto, San Andreas” game, I decided to ask them their opinion. The question was whether they thought they (children under 18 years of age) should be able to buy the game. The responses were surprising. Out of 9 children, only 3 felt that they should be able to buy the game. The others stated that they could just get their parents to buy it. These responses are especially surprising because 5 out of 10 of them wrote that “Grand Theft Auto, San Andreas” is their favorite game. Below are two links discussing the recent publicity surrounding the game. The first link is from a website devoted to game reviews, cheats and news.
