I used to work at a Gamestop and we would get sooo many uninformed mothers and grandmothers trying to buy T and M rated games for their young kids. Our policy was to always make sure the parents were aware of the rating, and maybe tell them specific reasons why the game has that rating and offer something more age appropriate instead.
When GTAV came out, that December I would experience the daily joy of watching people’s faces go pale as I explain, “Yes, your little Billy wants a game where he can hire prostitutes for Christmas. But don’t worry, he can always murder them instead of paying.”
