It's the Parents Duty, Not the "Assortments"

In an article titled “`GAME OFF’ URGED”, you can read the following.

"An assortment of politicians, religious leaders and social advocacy groups lashed out Tuesday at the video-game industry and retailers, saying they make violent and racy games too accessible to children."

The “assortment” lashes out at the video-game industry and retailers, I assume, because they profit from the sales.  But what really caught my eye, in this article, is what follows.

"Retailers were lambasted for allowing sales of Mature-rated games—suggested for people 17 and older—to children as young as 7."

What I’m wondering, is where a 7 year old comes up with the 50 bucks needed to purchase a video game, of any type, let alone the ones the “assortment” is whining about.  Bitch at the parents, assortment, not the retailers and video-game makers.
