Everyone's experience is different. My conclusion has been that I didn't learn anything from gaming as a child. I wish my parents had done a better job (they did try) steering me from gaming into pursuits I belive (emphasis on I) promote greater intellectual, emotional and social development than gaming.

This is because not all videogames are equal and, of course, not all people are equal.

Even among online games, there's a huge variety of experiences available.

I'm not against regulation, just not overbroad.
