A micro-transaction thread w/o Cody? (Destiny)

I am 100% serious when I say that if I ever have children I literally will not allow them to play any game with microtransactions. If that means every new game on the market so be it. They can play Mario 3.

Then you're 100% going to be doing a disservice to your children. Why not just refuse to let them have access to the bank accounts required to utilize microtransaction systems? Teach your children that your money is not theirs to toy with without your own explicit permission. Furthermore, you can foster a sense of being content with what's already in front of you for your children's sake. It's honestly as simple as that. Seems like you'd needlessly deprive them of something which interests them no matter how insignificant or innocent it may be.

Now think about your child's development and how he or she will look at obstacles later in life.
