Desensitized to Violence Murphy said that children who are exposed to violence do become accustomed to it. Worse still, they need more violent stimuli to keep them interested. On the other hand, the boys at the LAN party do learn how to work as a team, she acknowledged. Since most parents would not know how to do it, it’s up to children to set up their own networks for the LAN parties. They have to use partnership skills and work in teams to hook up the computers. Many of the LAN parties include 30 to 40 teens, and at some gaming conventions, there could be hundreds of players. One recent epic LAN party was held at an airplane hangar in Norway. The Cwiekas only allow their son to play once a week, usually on a Friday, so the teens have a chance to catch up on their sleep on Saturday. But some children play much more than that. Murphy says that every family is different, but parents should consider restricting the number of these parties to once a week.
