Microsoft Study Finds Parents Think Computer Games are Good for Kids

Microsoft commissioned a survey in the UK to ask the simple question of whether or not parents believed that computer games are good for their children. The results show that an overwhelming 75% believe that they do.

The 2500 member survey, intended to help quell the fear that games lead to violence and sex, showed that roughly half of the people polled believed that games bring families closer.
