Time
We recommend that parents closely monitor the time at which their children play computer games and for how long they play.
Habits and Attitude
We advise parents to monitor their children while they play and to play the game with them in order to get an impression of the game’s content and structure as well as discussing their playing habits and attitude.
Communication
We recommend that parents familiarize themselves with the communication channels available in-game such as instant messaging and e-mail as well as making their children aware of the dangers of dubious providers and companies in-game and unfriendly players.
Game Access and Payment
Parents are advised to organize access to the game with their children and to manage their account data. Children’s access to credit card numbers, bank information and other sensitive information should be monitored and they should be taught about responsible behavior in relation to payment systems such as Pay-By-Call (via telephone bill) and Pay-By-SMS (via mobile phone). Children may alternatively be provided with easier to control payment methods such as prepaid cards.
