Don't blame the game, blame the parents.

It could of been any game or addictive past time.

Negligent parents are simply Negligent and shouldn't be allowed to have some of the blame siphoned off due to the stupidity of the court system.

Now if the baby's parents had been out all night drinking, rather than playing video games, would this story get any press? No, none at all. The media has found a new scapegoat. How long till we're back to rock music is causing people to be HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE?

I remember something a few years ago too in the states, I don't think the baby actually died though but I could be wrong.

How sad, that poor kid :(

I'm sorry but it's sad their daughter died to a game addiction, but the story is far more pathetic than anything else. If you read the article, "Neglecting their daughter, who was born prematurely, the parents were instead preoccupied with raising a "virtual daughter" through an online game called "PRIUS," police authorities said."

The Kims spent most of their time playing Internet games at local cafes called "PC bangs,"

They could afford to goto an Internet Cafe, play the monthly fee for WoW buy couldn't afford their own PC?



The only thing more pathetic is the guy who kill himself because he didn't some drop off a raid mob in WoW, and the guy who killed himself over EQ.

Yeah, what sucks more is the fact she was born prematurely. You'd think they could show the least bit of concern for their daughter who's already in a vulnerable state. Rotten powdered milk? Fail, just fail.

It's all KMFDM's fault!

Their music makes people crazy.

A preacher told me so, that means it must be true.

Why would a preacher lie?

POL doesn't want to be anti-semitic. The balls are probably what made it offensive.

Jewnutsac = not ok
Jewsocrazy = OK

That's prolly how they see it.

That kind of treatment of a child really angers me. When my brother and sister were young, and my parents had just gotten divorced, my mom would leave them with a babysitter. Soon, my sister began to pee her pants again even though she already knew how to use the toilet, and she'd have random marks appear on her face that she told my mom were from falling while playing. Until a neighbor told my mom to get her kids away from that babysitter. My mom would give the babysitter money every week to buy food for my brother and sister, and not once did she use the money to buy food for them, instead she would only feed her kids. And she would leave my brother and sister in the car with the windows up when she went to the grocery store, or would leave them alone at home for hours on end, and when my sister said she had to go to the bathroom she would grab her by the hair and drag her to the toilet and scream at her to go, and would hit them, which is why my sister became afraid of going to the toilet. That's especially why this ***treatment of a child angers me. Makes me want to punch some people right in the kidneys sometimes >:/

Yeah, I don't blame it on the games, I blame it on the asshats that can't control themselves and prioritize something so important like their child's life.

Tortured then killed, like the child was.

I have 4 kids of my own and work full time. Not once have they ever been neglected in any way! It's not the game, it's the people. They really should make a license to breed. >.>

Here's another case how SRS online games are.
Note: Unlike the tragic korea incident, this is funnier.
