You really shouldn't let your kids play with RPGs.

Is this RPG video games that you're talking about? Or are you categorically against all role-playing games such as the tabletop ones that we're talking about here? Can you elaborate on why kids shouldn't play RPGs?

Yeah, the OPs title alone had me confused, hence the joke.

RPG also stands for Rocket-Propelled Grenade; the comment by vorpalhex appears to assume the same :)
