Video Games Teach our Kids to Point and Shoot

Suellentrop, Chris. "Playing with our minds: violent video games teach our kids to point and shoot, say the critics. The truth be every bit as frightening to members of a generation raised to believe they're thinking outside the box." The Wilson Quarterly 30.3 (2006): 14(8). Opposing Viewpoints Research Center. Web. 15 Mar. 2010

Chris Suellentrop explains the positive uses of violent video games through explaining the teaching process of the United States Military. He also collects data of the average age of an American that plays video games. He found that the average age is 33 years old, and found that more women play video games than do boys 17 and younger. He also found that although video games are prodominently played by males, 40% of all players are female.
