6 Year Old Drives To School Courtesy Of "GTA Skills"

A six-year-old used the skills he learned playing GTA to drive himself to school - or at least part of the way there.

The boy's parents, Jacqulyn Deana Waltman, 26, and David Eugene Dodson, 40, are being charged with child endangerment

does anyone think it could be his dads game that he plays without his parents permission or something like that maybe its the kids fualt

W-Wait. How do controller driving skills relate to steering wheel driving skills?

I mean, i can drive a mercedes a-class if i wanted to(i learnt to drive them at mercedes benz world), but i'm not old enough to legitimately drive.

maybe he used a ps2 steering wheel and look at parent ages how much of a bloody age difference?

Turns out there was a valid reason for the arrest/fostering - there was a previous court order stating that the mother was not, under any circumstances, to be left alone with the children.

That in itself doesn't make her at fault for what happened, but it bloody well doesn't help her look any better.

You know what I'm noticing?

Alot of people say that video games cause our children to be maniacs.

And we're saying "what the hell was he doing playing GTA?"

Doesn't that sort of reinforce the stereotype that video games make you crazy? 'Cause, you know, we're sort of admitting it?

Either way, thank god the kid's alive or I wouldn't be able to say that I laughed out loud to this!

I don't know whether to laugh or to cry or to laugh and cry...or cry.

No were saying that a 6 year old shouldn't be playing an R18 game, we are mature, we know what age ratings mean, a kid isn't going to grow up good if he's playing content not meant for his age group.

would you let a 6 year old watch Gorn? don't think so.

I wouldn't let my kid play GTA4, not until he understood the difference between real life and video games. That's how my parents raised me and I turned out fine, and I have ADHD.

this is why most parents which give a toss do stuff like make sure children don`t watch bad stuff or play games like GTA or Driver 3 And sometimes even little games like Crazy Taxi! My freinds brother was told not to play crazy taxi as he kept talking about crashing cars! O_O still the child has to be disiplined and His games shouldbt be over 7+ anyway!

His parents had nothing to do with the crime. The boy should be punished for:

1.Theft of the car.

2.Driving without a license.

3.Endangering those on the road

Why the parents are being charged when this child is clearly the guilty party? What does his brother have to do with this anyway? I can imagine putting him in to custody to protect his family and others from this dangerous behavior (hence "protective custody") but why put his brother in there too? Was the brother suspected of conspiracy to the theft?

The child can't be charged because of his age, I believe.
