Read the article. The parents were already charged with various other neglect related crimes and were under orders to keep an eye on their children.

As to how he drove, he stood up.

seriously i can't imagine the kid being able to see the road or stepping on the pedal.

and whatever the kid does, i think it's only right that the parents are taking some of the responsibility for it

You should be at least 14+ to play the lattest versions of Gta
12 could be a ok for the first versions ( 2d is less gory and explicite ).

Fucking stupid parents.

what!? that is ridiculous. 14 to play a video game is stupid. Gore is a natural part of life. It isnt unusual for young kids to see dead animals, or take part in butchering a deer or something similar, so I dont see why a little bit of fake video game gore is going to cause any damage. Censorship is retarded.

Everyone is making too big of a deal about Grand Theft Auto. There are plenty of car games that wouldn't be ridiculous for a 6 year old to play that would teach him more or less the same thing which could lead to him hopping in a real car.

Although I agree that the parents shouldn't let a 6 year old play that game.

His parents are idiots for:
(1) Letting their 6 y/o kids take the bus in America by himself
(2) Letting him play a filthy game such as Grand Theft Auto.

Have fun in jail!

lol, funny thing is i have an inkling of what the feeling the kid had. playing gta4 from extended periods of time, when i drive somewhere in real life, it feels like a video game, i'm tempted to just start speeding. also when i see a cop i feel the same feelings that i do in gta for a bit. weird

Seeing as this happened in the US, I am actually surprised it was the parents that went to jail, now the kid. No offense but that's what I expected.

Ha I was shocked to hear a 6 year old was driving a car....

Then I read on and found out he learned by playing.... GTA!

Zing.

Parents sound pretty clueless to me.

As for "how did he drive" I think that his feet might reach if he stood up on the floor. A standing kid just might have the reach for the pedals while keeping his eyes above the steering wheel.

lol. ppl driving past the car would be like "o shit! no one's in the car!!!!!!"
if everythings coming your way, youre in the wrong lane. sAviOr 4evar!
