PUBG addiction: Parents in the UAE demand ban on the game citing violent content

Firstpost  

Parents in the UAE are of the opinion that games like PUBG have a “bad influence on youth”. Parents in the UAE are also demanding a ban on the popular mobile battle royale title, citing its adverse effects on the mindset of children. As per a report by UAE-based publication Khaleej Times, a number of parents in the country are of opinion that PUBG Mobile is nothing but a “bad influence on youth”. They care only about winning in this game.” One parent even went to the length to say, “With the recent New Zealand mosque attack, it didn’t surprise me when I read the response of the attacker and how games like Spyro Dragon and Fortnite trained him to be a killer.” While government and law enforcement authorities in the UAE are yet to comment on the matter, parents are strongly opposing how readily PUBG is available on all platforms for children of all ages.
