Inevitably, however, they'd just say "it's no worse than what they see on TV" and buy it. I'd usually sigh and ring it up, because I mean, it was my job and so I did it.

People honest to god need to learn to parent. I think a lot of this has to do with the fact that there are so many of the current generation of parents that really didn't have much parenting themsleves, coming out of the hippie generation.
I don't see a problem with buying such a game for your kids if you sincerely think that your kids are mature enough to handle it. I'm not certain my mom would have bought me ultra-violent games if she knew what was involved, but that would have been more an objection to the game on her part than her thinking that the game would mess me up or drive me to commit some heinous crime.

But the rationale that "it's no worse than what they see on TV" is a horrible, horrible excuse. There's a BIG difference between watching someone else do it and having that control yourself.

@IAAW: That most certainly was no glitch.
