so your saying, if your parrents arent around, you walk into the kitchen stab yourself, its thier fault?parents fault
their parents was inside at home watching naruto lol... xdactually one question that needs to be answered is since they were children,
why was there no adult supervision in the playground to prevent this?
Bad parenting much?
I agree- even though the children were 10 there still should have been some sort of 'check-in' for them. I also feel that if the parents really believe that the show is to blame they should have A.) not have let them watch it in the first place or B.) explain to there kid that its a show and they shouldn't mimic the characters in it. I remember watching Gundums, Salor Moon, and Yu Yu Hakusho when I was there age and I never atempted any of the things my favorite characters did on the show. So I think the parents play a big part in this- knowledge is power- and its the parents job to make sure there children are aware of themselves and there friends.U_UNow let's think about this. Unless they were really young, they really don't need parents' or any adult supervision if they were playing in their backyard or nearby park. I'm only referring this to my own upbringing when I rarely had anyone watching over me when I was outside playing at around 10-years-old. I'm not saying parents don't do it, I'm just saying that at 10, most kids tend to stay close to safe areas and need less consistent "check-ins" than their younger counter-parts.
I don't find the show at fault at all, since it's merely a cartoon and therefore not in charge of raising or protecting children (like parents or babysitters are). I don't find the children at fault because children are stupid, it's how they learn. I find parents/babysitter/etc at fault in this case since they should have installed a "sense of reality" into the kids and - while I said they need less consistant checking-in earlier - should have checked on them regularly enough to know what they were doing. It takes a while for a kid to suffocate and quite bit for something like sand to do real damage - unless they started with the kid's head.
In any case, now the kids have a learning experience - they killed their friend and found out just how awesome Gaara really is. Maybe one of them will try the ressurection technique next.
you have a point but if the parents checked on them every now and then they could have seen what they were doing and saved the kid.+ i would like to add to those who say parent´s fault that if you go somewhere, for example park and you climb tree, than you fall and break your leg, than is it fault of your parents? i was climbing trees since i was 7 and never fell, BUT if i would, no one could say it was fault of my parents
i used to mimic wcw with my cousins when we were little like doing the rock bottom and all sorts of stuff, till my "parents" walked in and told us you could really get hurt...you should stopI agree- even though the children were 10 there still should have been some sort of 'check-in' for them.

they probably a bunch of workaholics putting work over there kids, think about it would your parents really not check up on you once in awhile?you have a point but if the parents checked on them every now and then they could have seen what they were doing and saved the kid.
lol I guess they should or I guess they could put the rating up on it. whatever works. I just dont think its the shows fault in all honesty. and just so everyone knows I did a research project on video games affecting kids and making them do violent things and there is no connection that can be found scientificlly.i used to mimic wcw with my cousins when we were little like doing the rock bottom and all sorts of stuff, till my "parents" walked in and told us you could really get hurt...you should stop. they should put a "please don't try this at home" thing for naruto lawlz
majority of people who play violent games like cod4, end up joining the army, i have 5 of my friends who joined the army when they were 16lol I guess they should or I guess they could put the rating up on it. whatever works.
