I think the most important thing is to play with them and have an active role in it, discussing themes and scary/confusing parts...but I still reckon it’s a good thing to follow the lower ratings as a guideline and the higher one(s) as absolute.

It’s the same as every other thing that we gather data from - the more research, the better analysis.

My kids are gonna hate me when they are older lol...or if I start them off properly with boundaries and a trust system, everything will be ok...Does it really matter when you don't even micro manage what they do on their phones?
