Four questions to start the conversation:
โข Does this game fit your childโs age and maturity?
โข Who can they play or chat with online?
โข What are your household rules for play time and in-game purchases?
โข Who should they tell if something makes them uncomfortable?
If you are unsure where to start, ESRBโs Family Gaming Guide is a useful parent resource. It covers game selection, online play, family rules, child accounts and privacy.
