Although this is an old, already discussed problem, I believe that we can still change. I feel that the majority of players that play Destiny are under the appropriate age for shooters. I think this age should be 18 and over. I'll give you a few reasons.
1)It causes traumatic situations. I for one do not want my child flinching and screaming away every time they see somebody holding a sword.
2) It causes anti-social instincts to grow. When you think about it, the average session a child will play in Destiny is three to four hours. That's three to four hours where the only communication the are getting is with people they have met over the Internet. I don't want children growing older and being scared of every person they see.
3) It teaches them bad words. Every lobby I go into, there is always that person (usually a child) screaming curse words for no good reason. Where did they find out these words? From older players. If there was a minimum age, you would not have this problem. Children are getting angrier because of this game.
4) My final reason is that it causes violence. No 10 year old should be able to make another creatures head explode, or shoot other players virtually. What happens when that transfers to the real world? That anger and frustration would lead to much property being desecrated including
Mailbox Baseball
Laser Tag
TPing Houses
Egging Cars
Multiple holes in the wall from being punched.
ANY PERSON who do not follow these rules should be arrested with a minimum 2 year sentence.
Thank you all for the support you give me. I believe that a change to only 18 year olds and over would make the worlds youth safer and more intelligent than currently.

My son is 9. Straight A student, citizen of the month, plays travel baseball at a high level and just beat Gothalion on ToO earlier.

From your own perspective, this is problem. From others this isn't. Unless the child is mentally unstable they won't become violent over a video game. They usually learn curse words from their parents not being careful. Unless they are genuinely afraid of something they won't "flinch" when they see it. Lastly, the anti social aspect is usually because introverts tend to lean towards video games to express their feelings without having to talk to others. Tl; Dr- most of what you said is from the scientific traits that the kid has compared to video games that are apparently "ruining our kids". You just got corrected by a scientifically intelligent 16 year old

Ah, yes. Being rated M has certainly kept the underages out of other communities. CoD and GTA are prime examples of this! Absolutely no young kids at all on those..

If the kid is not raised by dumbasses the kid should be fine.

18 is pushing it, I play with a 14 year old who's pretty mature, I've played with adults who are immature.
